the picking parts are made up of these chords plus some added notes, but here are the
chords used.
[EADGBE]capo 3rd fret (see bottom for fret number for the chords i used)
|INTRO|
Am Em F Am F x2 (the strumming is easy to figure out if you listen to the
song)
|VERSE|
[Am]Dead man, where you ever alive? Or was [F]I just a seed buried deep i[Cadd9]nside
Some woman you wed right be[G]fore you crawled out of her bed and c[Am]rept down the
hall? Did you think of[F] me? Did you even for a [Cadd9]second hesitate in the do[G]orway?
It's just something that [Am]I'd like to know Though I'd still love you if Y[F]ou
told me that you just wal[Am]ked away
|CHORUS|
[Cadd9] [G] [F]
My God, [G]what a world you love Where men bury their sons And without thought
just walk a[Am]way.[B] [D] [Am] [Em] [F]
[Am] [B] [D] [Am]
And my[F] mother'[Cadd9]s heart breaks like the water inside of her (x2)
|Verse|
[Am]Dead man, is it being high that ma[F]kes you alive? It makes you leave b[Cadd9]ehind
three boys and a wife in [G]'89. As the tr[Am]ack marks inched their way up your arm
B(?) D(f)?
My mother taught my brothers and I not to call you daddy
But to [Em]call you father But [Am]I believe there is something here to be lea[F]rn of
grace 'Cause I can't help but lo[Am]ve you, no i can't help but lo[F]ve you even
with a heart that br[Am]eaks like the promises t[F]hat you made.[Am] [FAm] [F] [Am] [F] [Am] [F]
My [Cadd9]God, what a world you[Cadd9] love
