Empty Ray Lamontagne
[G]She lifts her skirt up to her knees
[G]Walks through the garden of roses with her bare feet [D]laughing
[G]I never learned to count my blessings
[G]I choose instead to dwell in my [D]disasters
[Bm]I walk on the down the hill
Through [F#m]grass grown tall and brown
[G]And still it’s hard somehow to let go of my [D]pain
[Bm]On past the busted bags and that o[F#]ld and rusted Cadillac
[G]That sinks into this field collecting[D] rain
[D]Will I a[A]lways fe[G]el this [Bm]way? [F#]
[D]So empty[A], so est[G]ranged [Bm] [F#]
[Bm]
[G]And of these cut through busted sunsets
[G]These cold and damp white mornin[D]gs I have grown weary
[G]If through my cracked and dusty dimestore lips
I spoke these words out loud wou[D]ld no one to hear me?
[Bm]Lay your blouse across the chair
[F#]Let fall the flowers from your hair
[G]And kiss me with that country mo[D]uth so plain
[Bm]Outside the rain is tapping on t[F#]he leaves
To me its sounds like they’re
[G]Applauding us the sweet [D]love we made
[D]Will I a[A]lways fe[G]ll this [Bm]way? [F#]
[D]So empty[A] so stra[G]nge [Bm] [F#]
Well I looked my demons in the eyes
Laid bare my chest, said do your best, destroy me
See I’ve been to hell and back so many times
I must admit you kinda bore me
There’s a lot of things that can kill a man, there’s a lot of ways to die
Yes and some already dead who walk beside me
There’s a lot of things I don’t understand
Why so many people lie
Well it’s the hurt I hide that fuels the fire inside me
Will I always feel this way?
So empty so estranged?
