Chords with lyrics
[Capo 2]
[Verse 1]
C majorC C/BC/B A minorAm
Though everyone tried to ignore us
C majorC C/BC/B A minorAm
We'd scared them all off by the chorus
FF C majorC
There you stood looking proud
FF C majorC G+G
What was left of the crowd at our show
A minorAm G+G FF
and I was 22 backwoods years old
C majorC C/BC/B A minorAm
You were singing that night by yourself
C majorC C/BC/B A minorAm
And I thought I was the only one left
FF C majorC
From an old southern town
FF C majorC G+G
New ideas bouncing round in my head
A minorAm G+G FF
And I thought everyone like me was dead
[Chorus]
A minorAm Am/G# Am/GAm/G D MajorD
And somehow you put down my fears on a page
C majorC C/BC/B A minorAm
When I still had nothing to say
FF C majorC
And how I miss you today
FF C majorC G+G
May you find what you gave, all that hope
A minorAm G+G FF
Somewhere down at the end of your rope
[Verse 2]
C majorC C/BC/B A minorAm
Now I know you'll be fine on your own
C majorC C/BC/B A minorAm
And your families all need you at home
FF C majorC
And the dream was just smoke
FF C majorC G+G
At least you all got the joke off the bat
A minorAm G+G FF
And you were alright with that
[Chorus]
A minorAm Am/G# Am/GAm/G D MajorD
And somehow I'm still out here burning my days
C majorC C/BC/B A minorAm
Your voice makes the miles melt away
FF C majorC
I'll be guarding your place
FF C majorC G+G
In the lights on the stage of my heart
A minorAm G+G FF
I guess we're all still finding our part
[Bridge]
DmDm G+G C majorC C/BC/B A minorAm
DmDm G+G C majorC C/BC/B A minorAm
DmDm G+G C majorC C/BC/B A minorAm
DmDm G+G C majorC
[Chorus]
A minorAm Am/G# Am/GAm/G D MajorD
And somehow I'm still out here seeing your faces
C majorC C/BC/B A minorAm
In likely and unlikely places
FF C majorC
Somewhere playing too loud
FF C majorC G+G
Or in what's left of the crowd at our show
A minorAm G+G FF
Hanging out when it's past time to go
A minorAm G+G FF
Hanging out when it's past time to go
