Not In This Life by Lori McKenna
Not In This Life
Tuning: E A D G B E
Capo: 2nd fret
[Verse]
G
It's cold for early June, but the sun is rising fast
Am
There's a dew up on the quiet hill where he lays in the grass
F G
Staring up at heaven's gates to see if he can see in Jesus' eyes
[Verse]
G
The woman that he thinks of is still lying fast asleep
Am
As he asks for resolution and prays his soul to keep
F G
A man of god in love, can't touch a man of god, temptation, sunrise
[Chorus]
D G
But it doesn't mean I don't love you, it doesn't mean I don't care
D G
It doesn't mean I wouldn't love to run my fingers through your hair
D G
It doesn't mean I wouldn't make sweet love to you so right
F C G
It just means, not in this life
[Verse]
G
This has always been the path for him since the age of nine or ten
Am
And if only he remembered now the things he knew back then
F G
It seemed god had a plan for him, a clear and decisive role
[Verse]
G
But he never would have seen her if she hadn't come to pray
Am
If she didn't need forgiveness, he'd be a holy man today
F G
If she wasn't so damn beautiful, if her eyes didn't bleed into his soul
[Chorus]
D G
But it doesn't mean I don't love you, it doesn't mean I don't care
D G
It doesn't mean I wouldn't love to run my fingers through your hair
D G
It doesn't mean I wouldn't make sweet love to you so right
F C G
It just means, not in this life
[Bridge]
F C G
Dear god, I am sorry for my sins
F C G
Dear god, I am sorry for the situation I'm in
[Verse]
G
He'll analyse the burning, the tremble in his chest
Am
Falls behind on duties and he's sleeping less and less
F G
He doesn't pay attention in church, he doesn't answer to his name when people call
[Verse]
G
He's got himself this apple and it's looking so damn good
Am
But just because he can bite it, it doesn't mean he should
F G
He lets her know his feelings, Eden is burning and he doesn't care at all
[Chorus]
D G
But it doesn't mean I don't love you, it doesn't mean I don't care
D G
It doesn't mean I wouldn't love to run my fingers through your hair
D G
It doesn't mean I wouldn't make sweet love to you so right
F C G
It just means, not in this life
[Bridge]
G
I'm sorry for my sins
G
I'm sorry for my sins
G
I'm sorry for my sins
G
I'm sorry for my sins
G
I'm sorry for my sins
G
I'm sorry for my sins
G
Well, I am sorry for my sins, yeah
G
I am sorry for my sins
[Chorus]
D G
But it doesn't mean I don't love you, it doesn't mean I don't care
D G
It doesn't mean I wouldn't love to run my fingers through your hair
D G
It doesn't mean I wouldn't make sweet love to you so right
F C
It just means, not in this
F C
Just means, not in this
F C G
It just means, not in this life
[Outro]
G
I'm sorry for my
G
I'm sorry for my
G
I'm sorry for my sins
