In The Curve by The Avett Brothers
In The Curve
The other version doesn't have the little riff that is played throughout this
song and it is also wrong. There is no E minor in this song at all, just the
1, 4, and 5 chords
(like so many great tunes.)
CAPO 3 to match The Avett's version.
Riff used throughout: YOU PUT IT WHERE IT NEEDS TO BE

I've never taken this curve, driving this fast before
G D G C G D G
A glowing stop sign but both lanes are mine no seatbelts attached to my door.
G D G G D G
Well my Speed meter don't work, so I'm gonna guess 95.
G D G C G D G
Well maybe I'll fix it and maybe I won't it depends on my being alive.
G D G G D G
Well my bottle of bourbon is gone. Flew away all by itself.
G D G C G D G
So if ever you find it my photo behind it in memory of me on your shelf.
G D G G D G
Well my 63' Ford is a bull. She's 4000 pounds at least.
G D G C G D
But metal surrenders when oak trees meet fenders and engines go through
G
the front seat.
G D G G D G
Well I lost control in the curve, and a gas line broke in the wreck
G D G C G D
I walked from the ashes with just a few scratches my crucifix warm
G
on my neck.
G D G G D G
Well my good lord was with me tonight. Riding beside me tonight.
G D G C G
And now we're just talking we're hitch-hiking walking we'll see you in
D G
Concord tonight.
G D G C
And now we're just walking we're hitch-hiking talking we'll
G D G C G
see you......in concord.......tonight.
