Soft Shoulder Ani DiFranco
Intro:
[Am] [G]
Verse:
[Am] I don't keep much stuff ar[G]ound
[Am] I value my portabi[G]lity
[Am] But I will say that I have [G]saved
[Am] Every letter you ever wrote to[G] me
[Am] The one you left on my wind[G]shield
[Am] Outside of that little [G]motel
[Am] Is in the pocket of my old gig ba[G]g
[Am] From back when life was more soft shel[G]led
Chorus:
[Am] Letters littered with little lewd[F] pictures
[Am] Drawn by the ghost of Woody G[F]uthrie
[Am] Who would use your big thick han[F]d
Just to [G]draw one or two for me[F]
Interlude:
[Am] [G] [Am] [G]
Verse:
[Am] And I think of your letters as love[G] letters
[Am] Which is how I think of song[G]s
[Am] In that it is the writing of them[G]
[Am] That tends to carry us along[G]
[Am] And I dance to one of your old tunes[G]
[Am] With my true love on our wedding day[G]
[Am] And your voice sang the way my heart would sing[G]
[Am] If it finally knew just what to say[G]
Chorus:
[Am] Two people pulled over on the same n[F]ight
[Am] To look up at the same sta[F]rs
[Am] They both found their wheels were spin[F]ning in a soft shoulder
When they [G]both got back into their car[F]s
[Am] And they missed fate's appointed rendezvous[F]
[Am] And then a whole lotta time went b[F]y
[Am] And one day they were done worsh[F]ipping the landscape
And they just [G]put down their hands
And [F]moved into the sky
Interlude:
[Am] [G] [Am] [G]
Refrain:
And they[F] had barely said hello
And it was time to say goodbye[Am]
Outro:
[Am] [G] [Am] [G] [Am] [G] [Am] [G]
End on Am
