Mont Blanc by Quiet Hollers
Mont Blanc
CAPO: 2nd FRET
INTRO:
Em G D Am
Em G D Am
Em
VERSE:
Em G
I know I planted those seeds down too deep
D Am
They'll die and never see the sun
Em
My fault for that one
Em G
I was a city boy before
D
No excuses anymore
Am
I'll try to learn and to keep us fed
Em G D Am
Shed a tear for the books I shoulda read
VERSE:
Em G
And I'd seen all the warning signs
D
On the TV, in the Times
Am
But I had you to hold at night
Em
And so it took me by surprise
Em G
We had so many things back then
D
I had a silver Mont Blanc pen
And I'd write for hours
Am
About nothing
C
It makes any difference now
CHORUS:
C G D
And I used to worry what clothes I had on
C G D
The school recitals and the manicured lawns
C G
And I had a laundry-list of people
D C
I could count on if it all went wrong
N.C. Em G D Am
And then the bomb
VERSE:
Em G
Now I take precautions for my peace of mind
D Am
I don't know what difference it might make
To hang on any longer
Em G
But I cut the tree across the drive
D
Spend the daylight hours inside
Am
Trying to make the place look empty
Em G D Am
so as no-one comes around
VERSE:
Em G
I thought I saw them again last night
Those same distant headlights
D Am
Sweeping back and forth across
Em
The empty shells of the summer homes
Em
And if the bastards ever come
G D
Promise me you'll take the kids and run
Am
I may be weak and I may be frail
Em C
But I can throw them off your trail
CHORUS:
C G D
And I used to worry what clothes I had on
C G D
The school recitals and the manicured lawns
C G
And I had a laundry-list of people
D C
I could count on if it all went wrong
CHORUS:
C G D
And I used to worry what clothes I had on
C G D
The school recitals and the manicured lawns
C G
And I had a laundry-list of people
D C C C
I could count on if it all went wrong
N.C. Em
And then the bomb
G D
Oh, the bo-oo-oo-oo-omb
OUTRO:
Am Em G D
Shed a tear for the books I shoulda read
Am Em G D
Shed a tear for the books I shoulda read
Am Em Em
Shed a tear for the books I shoulda read
