CAPO: 1st FRET

INTRO:
G MajorG   C majorC   A minorAm   C majorC


VERSE:
               G MajorG                             C majorC
I can see the sky for miles, I can see that time so clear

          A minorAm                               C majorC
When you told me "forever" was a word that I should not fear

                G MajorG                             C majorC
I can see you driving and smoking, Virginia Slims on the dash

        A minorAm                                 C majorC
On that day I was crying, you stopped the car, looked back


You said


CHORUS:
  G MajorG                          C majorC
"Boy, get the message, this ain`t no New York City

          A minorAm                   C majorC
Born and bred in West Texas, raised you to be different

    G MajorG                      C majorC
No matter how it ends, no matter all your sin

                A minorAm
I hope you will understand

         C majorC                          G MajorG      G MajorG
When I leave, you better be a good man"

VERSE:
                G MajorG                        C majorC
I can see that house in the summer, baseball in the yard

             Am7Am7                           C majorC
And when my knees got bloody, you told me keep playing hard

            G MajorG                        C majorC
I remember mass on Sundays, collared up to the ten

        Am7Am7                            C majorC
You were so damn faithful, even if it all was a mess

               G MajorG
And in those years that we weren`t speaking

             C majorC
When I was drinking for some meaning

     Am7Am7                                 C majorC
You called me on the phone and then you said, hey



CHORUS:
  G MajorG                          C majorC
"Boy, get the message, this ain`t no New York City

          A minorAm                  C majorC
Born and bred in West Texas, raised you to be different

    G MajorG                      C majorC
No matter how it ends, no matter all your sin

                A minorAm
I hope you will understand

         C majorC                          G MajorG     G MajorG   C majorC   Am7Am7   C majorC
When I leave, you better be a good man"

                       G MajorG    C majorC   Am7Am7   C majorC
"You better be a good man"



BREAK:
         E minorEm                           C majorC
And it`s so hard to imagine what I`ll do without you here

        G MajorG                                       C majorC
As you gaze your eyes towards mine, tell me to wipe away those tears

         G MajorG                                E minorEm
You say Jesus loves you, always will, no matter what you did

             C majorC                  G MajorG
And in that moment, I`m a kid again


You said


CHORUS:
  G MajorG                          C majorC
"Boy, get the message, this ain`t no New York City

         Am7Am7                  C majorC
Born and bred in West Texas, raised you to be different

    G MajorG                      C majorC
No matter how it ends, no matter all your sin

                A minorAm
I hope you will understand

         C majorC                          G MajorG    C majorC   Am7Am7   C majorC
When I leave, you better be a good man"

  C majorC                    G MajorG      G MajorG   C majorC   A minorAm   C majorC
"You better be a good man"
