Hard Luck chords by Black Pistol Fire

Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)


Intro:
N.C.
Cold smoke down the river shore
N.C.
Took a breath but I could hardly choke
N.C.
Weepin' willow moaning like a lonesome ghost
N.C.
Kerosene soaking through a six foot rope & I’ll wait


Verse 1:
G                G                            C
 Cold is my heart it follows me everywhere I go
                        Cm
Down the line, back to North Carolina
       D
I’m a bad apple darling but you know you want a bite
G

 Lost mind on her daddy’s dime

Somewhere out rollin on the county line

Shacked up in a car, when the rope got too far
                                                 D
Kindly remove my heart from your jaws, and I’ll wait
G                 G                            Cm
 Cold is my heart, you follow me everywhere I go
                        Cm
Down the line, back to North Carolina
       D
I’m a bad apple darling but you know you want a bite


Chorus:
G              G
 I didn’t know, I didn’t know
G               D
 I didn’t know heaven was full so I rambled on
G              G
 I didn’t know, I didn’t know
G               D
 I didn’t know heaven was full so I rambled on


Verse 2:
N.C.
Hook, line, sinker baby
N.C.
Lord knows I don’t need maybe’s
N.C.
Looking to the sky I don’t need saving
                                              D
Pretty soon I’ll be pushing daisies and I’ll wait
G                                              Cm
 Cold is my heart, you follow me everywhere I go
                        Cm
Down the line, back to North Carolina
       D
I’m a bad apple darling but you know you want a bite


Chorus:
G              G
 I didn’t know, I didn’t know
G               D
 I didn’t know heaven was full so I rambled on
G              G
 I didn’t know, I didn’t know
G               D
 I didn’t know heaven was full so I rambled on
