| A7sus4 | D | Aadd4 | G |
| A7sus4 | D | |
| A worn out joke to keep the | flies away |
| Aadd4 | G | |
| Carried it this | far |
| A7sus4 | D | |
| Got the | westside winds keep it st | eady |
| Aadd4 | G | |
| Bury the hatchets we | find |
| A7sus4 | D | |
| Could carry that heavy | load |
| Aadd4 | G | |
| If I really thought it would | matter |
| E7 | Aadd4 | |
| Farcical hair ap | pears |
| E7 | |
| As a blind side |
| A7sus4 | D | |
| Clean the | slate |
| Chorus |
| A7sus4 | D | |
| Working in the halls of | shame |
| G | |
| Lay it | down in full view |
| Em7 | |
| Lay it | down |
| What the hell were we thinking |
| Before the fire burned out |
| Can't find you now |
| Didn't know you then |
| Loneliness drinks the bitters |
| Till the cold wind's warm again |
| To feel born again |
| Mouth open wide, screams and hollers |
| Chorus |
| Gambled once and won, never made a dollar |
| Beauty fades to gray |
| I pray the very best will guard her |
| And provide a way |
| There's a telltale sign |
| And it's chairs up, time to go |
| Chorus |
---------------------------------------------------------------------
| a neat way to tie the "A" chords to the G and D are to slide the "E" |
| note fretted on the second string up to the fourth fret, and then pull |
| it off. |
| Example |
d--0------------0------ b--3------------0------ g--0------------0------ d--2-----2/4p0--0------ a--0------------2------ e---------------3------
