The Flashlight Blues chords by Alec Sullivan

🎸 Intro:

C G Am F D C G



🎸 Verse 1:

C           G
  1pm by the shadows
Am                               F
  I sit and watch the clouds pass by
             D
And though I hope to be where you're going
         G                      C G
I know I can't be where you've been
C                         G
  It's always good to get away
             Am                D
We hoist the jib up out on the lake
             C
And soon the moon comes out
    G                         C
The water's still from where we lay

🎸 Pre-Chorus:

            D
And if it's looking like the rain might come and pour upon your cabin
F
Just remember this is where you come to see the sun and
C         Em             Am  Asus4 Am
Leave your conscience for days
     D
They call it "The Flashlight Blues"
        G              Ab  G
Because no one wants to play


🎸 Chorus:

Bb   F  Ab Bb
Oooh
C
  Where I am, where I am, where I am
Bb  F Ab Bb
Oooh
C
  I'm never going tomorrow
Bb  F Ab Bb
Oooh
C
  And though I've said it before
Fm                 Ab7   Gm7
Next year
I'll be home again


🎸 Verse 2:

C                               G
Always good, always good, always good
                 Am                  D7
That's what they say now, out on the lake now
           C
And if you can't find the castle in the clouds
                       G
Then you might as well climb Major
     C
Just make it up and down in an hour


🎸 Pre-Chorus:

D
Bounce a lot
Shakers
I'm undampening a coma
F
Round and round yourself will only lead you home and
C         Em             Am  Asus4 Am
Leave your conscience for days
             D
Oh well they call it "The Flashlight Blues"
        G              Ab  G
Because no one wants to play


🎸 Chorus:

Bb   F  Ab Bb
Oooh
C
  Where I am, where I am, where I am
Bb  F Ab Bb
Oooh
C
  I'm never going tomorrow
Bb  F Ab Bb
Oooh
C
  And though I've said it before
Fm                 Ab7   Gm7
Next year
I'll be home again
