CAPO2

INTRO C G D x2

C G D

We haven't seen your face

C G D

In such a long, long time

C G D

We were wondering when you might come around

EM G

C G D

Was it all about money

C G D

Or was it just about time

C G D

That we realized just what you're all about

EM G

C D C

You're all about starving the fever

D EM D G

And feeding the cold - with your bird in hand

C D

You say it keeps you down to earth

C G D x2

C G D

Well, the morning is a long time coming

C G D

But you can see it as plain as day

C G D

Was it a hard come down or are you back for more

C G D

And the winter wheat's been growing

C G D

But tell me do you miss that child

C G D

You know she's getting tall - I saw her yesterday

C D C

You're all about starving the fever

D EM D G

And feeding the cold - with your bird in hand

C D

You say it keeps your children warm

BM C G

I'm getting old before my time

BM C D G

Looking for what little truth there is to find

SOLO C G D

C G D

C G D EM

C D

C D EM

C D

Feel those river fingers gripping

C D

All the life that's left inside

C D EM

Don't try to tell me that you've changed, your story's getting old

C D

There's the simon silk mill breathing

C D

Breathing her song into the air

C D EM

I feel bad for you now - you've missed out on so much

C D EM

I feel bad for you now - you've missed out on so much

C D C

You're all about starving the fever

D EM D G

And feeding the cold - with your bird in hand

C D

You say it keeps you down to earth

Down to earth

C D C

You're all about starving the fever

D EM D G

And feeding the cold - with your bird in hand

C D

You say it keeps your children warm

Your children warm

C D

You know, it won't get any better

C D

It won't get any better

C D EM

C D

You know, it won't get any better

C D

It won't get any better

To stay here beside her, but I know I never will

So give my best to Bonnie

And send her my love when I'm gone

G D

Give my best to Bonnie

'Cause by the time she wakes up, I'll be gone

Come and see me later on, you know where I'll be

In the shade out by the barn, where no one can see me

I see you standing by the gate in silent spirit

It makes me wish there was a way I could make your dreams up and

Fly away - with no help from above

I see the world through such tired eyes

But I don't know why

But maybe I can trace it to a time

When their dream became my lie

And now it's up to me to try

BM F# D

Try to face up to the truth somewhere inside

A G

I've got to try

D G

So come and see me later on, you know where I'll be

D BM A

Singing these songs out by the barn, hoping they'll heal me

So go and try to save your sons while you still have time

D A G

And tell'em they're the only ones who can make their dreams up and

Fly away - with no help from above

You'd feel no pain

With only love to guide you on your way, everyday

REAL COUNTRY DARK

by ryan79

Intro Am G x4

AM G

As I started down the street one day

AM G

A man came up to me, and he did say:

C F

"You can't spend your time all alone"

C G

I said: "what do you think you know"

AM G

In the winter of my discontent

AM G

Solace came and solace quickly went

C F

So I tried to settle down

C G

In some long forgotten town

AM G

But I just could not escape myself

AM G

I probably could have used a little help

C F

But as usual I refused

C G

'Cause help to me always just

AM F

It felt like abuse

It felt like abuse AM G

AM G

So I put myself up on a cross

AM G

I made some noise but could not get across

C F

No one could hear all my cries

C G

So I cut the rope and apologized

AM G

For all the damage I had done

AM G

'Cause I was just a friend to everyone

C F

Who just did not know right from wrong

C G

Which makes it easier to get along

AM G

When you're feeling real low down

AM G

And kinda tired of just hangin' around

C F

In the town of Caroline

C G

I walked up and down those

Those powerlines AM F

Those powerlines AM G

AM G

Someone is hiding underneath the stairs

AM G

I try to tell myself that no one is there

C F

But in the real country dark

C G

Someone is dying underneath the stars

AM G

So I could just say fair thee well my friend

AM G

But just in case we never meet again

C F

I'm hiding something in the ground

C G

And only you know where it

It can be found AM F

It can be found AM G

C F C G X 2

END C
