Capo 1st fret
Standard (EADGBE)
Well my mind's still limber but my heart's grown old
From the time I left the only place I know
And it makes me happy we didn't get let go
I couldn't stand to see our love just decompose
Now I've been walking home nearly every night
And here's to everyone I ever loved but had to leave behind
For the one thing I can't find though I've been looking half my life
And it's damn hard to explain but I will try it if you like
If you ask me once I'll tell you so
That the blue between us never felt so cold
And I miss the folk singers from the days of old
When a three chord song could save your soul
And no I'm never on time least that's what I'm told
So why's everything feel like it moves too slow?
And if I were scared I wouldn't let it show
Cause if I die tonight I'm not going home
Why's it seem so wrong to miss the town you love?
When there's just one state that you cannot stop thinking of
I wouldn't say I'm patriotic, but I think that's what I've become
Sometimes it takes where you are not just to remember where you're from
Was it my fault that I meant, every single word I said?
When it told you it was not the end
And if everything goes wrong, I hope we can get along
If I lost you I would lose my best friend
And now we're weathering the storm, side by side we're looking on
It takes a certain kind of love to bear this load
But it's not the tired romance of the open road
