🎸 Intro: D D Dmaj7 Dsus2 Bm G D F#m 🎸 Verse 1: Bm Oh I raced head first down the old stone road, G To the bridge outside Kilteel, D And I held my breath on that frosty morning, F#m Dreaming maybe youre still there, Bm Now I know in my heart that the original sin, G Was never showing you my mind, D Fore you crossed that sea, D F#m {Bm} You left this land and left my love behind.
N.C. But my hearts too honest, G D All my colours spilling out, F#m Bm Cause I know youre all I want, want , Bm Have we missed our moment? G D How could fate be so unfair? F#m D Dmaj7 Cause I know youre all I want, want 🎸 Verse 2: Bm Now my Father stands in the middle of the road saying, G Boy where have you been? D Youve been out all night chasing dogs and ghosts, F#m And this hill has taken down good men. Bm D Its been dark so long, shes so damn bright, G I can barely get myself to leave, D I dont do this much, no its not like me, he said, F#m Bm I know just what you mean. Bm But my hearts too honest, G D All my colours spilling out, F#m Bm Cause I know youre all I want, want , Bm Have we missed our moment? G D How could fate be so unfair? F#m Bm G D Cause I know youre all I want, want , want , want , F#m Bm G D Cause I know youre all I want, want , want , want , F#m Bm Cause I know youre all I want, want Outro Bm I realise now theres a wolf inside, G That I dare not try to kill, D I can change my path, I can learn his heart, F#m But I cannot change his will, Bm I watch her go, on a long cold night, G I expect shell never leave my mind, D And Ill walk round broken, sceptical, F#m Hoping one day shell return to my side. D
