Chords with lyrics

[Capo 2] I think it is easier to play at Capo 2 and sounds more like the song on
the album. Also it is much easier to do the BhC-B with your index finger on the BB
string, which he does throughout the song.

Intro: C majorC E minorEm C majorC E minorEm
C majorC              E minorEm
 Let the night air cool you off
C majorC                E minorEm
 Tilt your head back and try to cough
D MajorD              A minorAm
 Don't say nothing 'bout the things you never saw
C majorC              E minorEm
 Let the night air cool you off

I ain' living like I should
A augmentedA little rest might do me good
Got to sinking in the place where I once stood
Now I ain' living like I should

D MajorD              C majorC   C/BC/B E minorEm
 Can you hear that singing, sounds like gold
    D MajorD             C majorC C/BC/B E minorEm
 Maybe I, can only hear it in my head
D MajorD            C majorC  C/BC/B E minorEm
 Fifteen years ago they owned that road
      A augmentedA        C majorC   C majorC (hold)
 Now it's, rolling over us instead
          E minorEm  C majorC E minorEm
 Richard Manuel is dead

God forbid you call their bluff
Like the nightmares ain' enough
Remember when we used to think that we were tough?
God forbid you call their bluff

First they make you out to be
The only pirate on the sea
They say Danko would have sounded just like me
Is that the man I want to be?

Can you hear that singing, sounds like gold
 Maybe I, could make it bigger overseas
 Fifteen years ago they owned that road
 Now it only gives us somewhere else to leave
               E minorEm
 Something else you can't believe.

[Instrumental] C majorC E minorEm C majorC E minorEm C majorC E minorEm

Can you hear that singing, sounds like gold
 Maybe I, can hear poor Richard from the grave
 Singing where to reap and when to sow
 When you've found, another home you have to leave

E minorEm C majorC
 Something else you can't believe

E minorEm C majorC
 Something else you can't believe
