Verse 1
She (G major) lifts her skirt up to her knees
Walks through the garden rows
With her bare feet (D major) laughing

I choose instead to dwell in my disas (D major) ters

Pre-chorus 1
I (B minor) walk on down the hill
Through (F sharp major) grass grown tall
And brown and still It's (G major) hard somehow
To let go of my (D major) pain
(B minor) On past the busted back
Of that (F sharp major) old and rusted Cadillac
That sinks (G major) into this field
Collecting (D major) rain
Chorus 1
Will I (D major) al (A major) ways (G major) feel (B minor) this way (F sharp major) (F sharp major)
So (D major) emp (A major) ty (G major) So (B minor) es tranged (F sharp major) (F sharp7)
(B minor) (B minor)
Verse 2
And of these cut (G major) throat busted sunsets
These cold and damp white mornings
I have grown (D major) weary
If through my cracked (G major) and dusty
Dime store lips
I spoke these words out loud
Would no one (D major) hear me?
Pre-chorus 2
Lay your (B minor) blouse across the chair
Let (F sharp major) fall flowers
From your hair
And kiss (G major) me
With that country mouth
So (D major) plain
Out (B minor) side the rain is tapping
On the leaves (F sharp major)
To me it sounds like
They're applaud (G major) ing us
The quiet love
We've (D major) made
Chorus 2
Will I (D major) al (A major) ways (G major) feel (B minor) this way (F sharp major) (F sharp major)
So (D major) emp- (A major) ty (G major) So (B minor) es tranged (F sharp major) (F sharp7)

Verse 3
Well I looked (G major) my demons in the eyes
Lay bare my chest
Said do your best
To (D major) destroy me
See I've been (G major) to hell and back
So many times I must admit
You kinda bore (D major) me
Pre-chorus 3
There's a (B minor) lot of things
That can kill a man
There's a (F sharp major) lot of ways to die
Yes, and some (G major) already did
And walk beside (D major) me
There's a (B minor) lot of things
I don't understand
Why so (F sharp major) many people lie
It's the hurt (G major) I hide that fuels
The fire in (D major) side me
Chorus 3
Will I (D major) al (A major) ways (G major) feel (B minor) this way (F sharp major) (F sharp major)
So (D major) emp (A major) ty (G major) So (B minor) es tranged (F sharp major) (F sharp7)
