Guitar chords with lyrics
Verse 1:
C Fmaj7/C
And lover, where’d you lose your patience
C
I know you had your patience
Fmaj7/C
And I was just a kid
Verse 2:
C Fmaj7/C
And clueless, you never stop to wonder
C
If lightning strikes the thunder
Fmaj7/C
Or if it’s just coincidence
Chorus 1:
C
Every time your father beat you down
You told him, "Dad it wont be long,"
Fmaj7/C
And as your tiny body slept that night, I had my lamplight burning strong
Verse 3:
C
And hated
Fmaj7/C C
Your bedroom is a dark place, but you've broken all the doorways
Fmaj7/C
And now you're stuck inside
Verse 4:
C
But hopeful
Fmaj7/C C
Your memory's still around though, you can see it from your window
Fmaj7/C
As it starts to pass you by
Pre-Chorus:
Am
Now I'm in your car, you hold your apples in your arms
Fmaj7/C
You're a friend I used to know, but you still lean against my walls
Am
Tell me beauty I won't bluff, I set my mind to worthless stuff
Fmaj7/C
But I was hoping you'd have the decadence, the appetite of love
C Fmaj7/C
But that's alright, yeah that’s alright
Chorus 2:
C
Every time your father beat you down
You told him, "Dad it wont be long,"
Fmaj7/C
And as your tiny body slept that night, I had my lamplight burning strong
C
And when you came to me, and said, "We gotta leave,"
And so we took your parents' car
Fmaj7/C
And as your tiny body slept that night, I had my lamplight burning strong
C
And when we got away, but in a couple days
We crashed in Arkansas
Fmaj7/C
And as your tiny body slept that night, I had my lamplight burning strong
C
And when the cop cars came and took you away
I knew I had to write this song
Fmaj7/C
And as your tiny body slept that night, I had my lamplight burning strong Last updated:
