version 4
Am C
That's no way to live
F C G
all tangled up like balls of string.
Am C
And we woke at dawn
F C G
and watched the sun glide over the hill.
Am C F C G
Am C
I just said the first
F C G
three words that popped into my head.
Am C F C G
Let me off the bus; I'm tired and sore and should probably change clothes.
F Am
And the circuits are blown,
F
my woman is cold,
C G
our children are stoned and worthless.
F Am F C G (Am)
All waiting for you to tell them the truth. The truth is a line, that you'll never use.
Am C F C G
Am C
And her dignity
F C G
shown so bright like a light on a hill.
Am C
And she burned for me,
F C G
and no other man came near the flame.
Am C F C G
And back country songs the deafening twang of the rich-white-kid blues
Am C
You can own the stage,
F C G
but the lights and glares will not make you real.
F Am F
She whispers to me, I was meant to be free.
C G
This life that we've built is deadly.
F Am F
She crawls from my bed, puts a comb 'cross her head,
C G (Am)
She crawls to the train and drives herself home
Am C F C G

and watched the sun glide over the hill
