Capo 2
Lam Fa Do Fa Do
Fa
She lifts her skirt up to her knees
Do
Walks through the garden rows with her bare feet, laughing
Fa
I never learned to count my blessings
Do
I choose instead to dwell in my disasters
Lam
Walk on down the hill
Mi
Through the grass grown tall and brown
Fa Do
And still it's hard somehow to let go of my pain
Lam
On past the busted back
Mi
Of that old and rusted Cadillac
Fa Do
That sinks into this field collecting rain
Do Sol Fa Lam Mi
Will I always feel this way
Do Sol Fa Lam Mi Mi7
So empty, so estranged
Lam
Fa
Of these cutthroat busted sunsets,
Do
These cold and damp white mornings I have grown weary
Fa
If through my cracked and dusty dime store lips
Do
I spoke these words out loud would no one hear me
Lam
Lay your blouse across the chair
Mi
Let fall the flowers from your hair
Fa Do
And kiss me with that country mouth so plain
Lam
Outside the rain is tapping on the leaves
Mi
To me it sounds like they're
Fa Do
applauding us, the quiet love we've made
Do Sol Fa Lam Mi
Will I always feel this way
Do Sol Fa Lam Mi Mi7
So empty, so estranged
Lam Fa Do Fa Do
Fa
Well I looked my demons in the eyes
Do
Laid bare my chest said do your best and destroy me
Fa
See I've been to hell and back so many times
Do
I must admit you kind of bore me
Lam
There's a lot of things that can kill a man
Mi
There's a lot of ways to die
Fa Do
Yes and some already dead who walked beside me
Lam
There's a lot of things I don't understand
Mi
Why so many people lie
Fa Do
Well it's the hurt I hide that fuels the fires inside me
Do Sol Fa Lam Mi
Will I always feel this way
Do Sol Fa Lam Mi Mi7
So empty, so estranged
Lam Fa Do Fa Do Lam
