True Love Way by Kings Of Leon
True Love Way
D - F#m - G - Bm (x2, "ohs" on the 2nd time)
D G
I want in like a substitute
Bm G
I've been working awful hard for you
D G
But you don't say, you just hold your breath
Bm G
So I can't touch what I haven't yet
D G
She's a cold one and it hurts me so
Bm G
It's a dark path and a heck of a toll
D G Bm G
And she could kill me just like she did before
D
We'd be so free-
F#m
Happy alone
G
Sharing a smile
Bm
So far from home
D G
Pushing and a pulling weight
Bm G
It's the hard part but the true love way
D G
Girl you're wanted like a wanted man
Bm G
With your smart mouth and your killer hand
D G
We could both share all that I have made
Bm G
For a young man it's a heck of a wage
D G Bm G
And I feel crazy when I see your face
D
Cause we'd be so free-
F#m
Happy alone
G
Sharing a smile
Bm
So far from home
D
And we would laugh
F#m
Laugh till we cried
G
Making up songs
Bm
You're making me lie
Bm G A D
And people say our babies are walking this town
Bm G A D
And people say our babies are walking this town
Bm G A D
And people say our babies are just wanderin' around
Bm G A
And people say our babies are walking...
D - F#m - G - Bm (x2, "ohs" on the 2nd time)
D
Cause we'd be so free-
F#m
Happy alone
G
Sharing a smile
Bm
So far from home
D
And we would laugh
F#m
Laugh till we cried
G
Making up songs
Bm
You're making me lie
D
Happy alone

Then all you want is some vacant guitar sounds over the bass...
Try slide on the 7th to 9th frets on your D string...
The ending is just those 2 notes repeated.
