[Verse]
F     G       C      F
 I was shorter than my dad`s dining table
F      G       C       Fmaj7
 You were taller than my bedroom door frame
F     G      C             F

F      G        C        F
 You came crashing crawling down through the back brush
F       G         C       Fmaj7
 Eyes were bloodshot and your leaden voice thin
F     G        C           F
 Said I won`t blame you now but I caught your cold somehow
F      G      C
 then yo jumped right in

[Chorus]
   Am    G/B   C     Am
 Oh I wanna give you all of my love
   F       G    C     Am
 But I watched you sink as they swam above
  Am     G/B   C Cmaj7/B Am
 You are the land and I am the dove
  F      G       C  F
 My heart is heavy when you are high

 So for me why won`t you try

 Said you`re sorry you were drinking through the day then
F    G         C       Fmaj7
 Only stopped to let your lungs take the hit
F     G        C          F
 Said I won`t blame you now but you lost my love somehow
F    G      C
 Then you jumped right in

[Chorus]
   Am    G/B   C     Am
 Oh I wanna give you all of my love
   F       G    C     Am
 But I watched you sink as they swam above

 You are the land and I am the dove

[Verse 1]
G           Am
I was once a Sunday kneeler
        C    D        G
When I saw the leadlight, fall from the pane
           G            Am
I didn`t know that the grass, was not only greener
      C   D           G
Upkeep is cheaper, when you embrace the rain
                 Am
So I jumped down to lay with my leadlight
       C    D         G
Under your spotlight, I lay with the shards
             G         Am
I didn`t know that the ground, is not only harder
    Fmaj7/C    D     G
Oh but colder when you are not around

[Chorus]
  Fmaj7/C   C     G
I love you my darling I do!
      F       C       G
But I can let possession make a fool of you
  Fmaj7/C   C   G
I love you my darling I do!
       F       C         G      G/B
But I can`t promise I`ll be here to see this whole love through

[Verse 2]
  G                Am
So I ran with dreams to reach the skyline
       C     D          G
Straight up that incline, I ran towards the blue
           G          Am
I didn`t know that the sky, is not only wider
     Fmaj7/C     D        G
Oh but clearer when I`m standing next to you

[Chorus]
  Fmaj7/C   C     G
I love you my darling I do!
      F       C       G
But I can let possession make a fool of you
  Fmaj7/C   C   G
I love you my darling I do!
       F       C         G      G/B
But I can`t promise I`ll be here to see this whole love through

Oh I believe in trust you see
   G     D   Em        Am C
But don`t you go and put your trust in me
F Am        G
I cost more than you earn
  Am7       F     D
So tell me boy why didn`t you ever learn?

[Outro]
  Fmaj7/C   C     G
I love you my darling I do!
      F       C       G
But I can let possession make a fool of you

I love you my darling I do!
       F       C         G      G/B
But I can`t promise I`ll be here to see this whole love through

Capo 1

[Intro]
G  Am Am7 Am  C  G
G  Am Am7 Am  C  G

[Verse 1]
      G
These new lines on my face
      G
Spell out `girl pick up your pace
    Am               D
If you want to stay true to what your younger self would do`

[Verse 2]
     G
And this kink in my walk
     G
Makes me focus when I talk
   Am
If I can`t trust my feet
       D/A        D7
Then it`s my tongue I choose to keep

[Verse 3]
       G
And I walk slow so I can read
    G
Let my head fall, my hips lead
      Am
Why`d you write the words so small?
     D
Did you fool me, are they words at all?

[Verse 4]
    G
Or are you pulling down the veil
     G
Keeping grounded as you set my sail?
    Am
By the time I pull it off
    D
All my innocence is lost

[Verse 5]
      Am
And oh I`m good, I think I`m good
      Fmaj7
Will I be great, will I be great?
    C              G
Is it money I wanna make or is it sweet love for his sake?

[Verse 6]
        G
And these new parts I now need
      G
To help me function, help me feed
      Am
They are beyond my modest earnings
    D
Oh the girls they keep turning up the heat
  G
As if it`s cold
     C
But I`m hot, too hot to hold
Am                 D
I`ll burn a hole right through the hull

[Chorus]
      Am
When will I ever see the land?
    Fmaj7
Will I ever see the land?
  C
Oh water can`t revive me
    G
I need dirt in my hand
    Am
Will I ever see the land?
    Fmaj7
Will I ever see the land?
     C
Oh the ground will give me something
  D      Dsus4 G
I know that it can

[Interlude]
G  Am Am7 Am  C  G

[Verse 7]
       G
See I have charm and I have sight
     G
And I always try and do what`s right
      Am
But I have faults you know it`s true
       D        D7
Especially when it comes to treating you well

[Verse 8]
G             G
I will work when all my thoughts are mine again
      Am               D
See I was sure at the start, turns out I tried too hard
      Am
And oh I`m good, I think I`m good
      Fmaj7
Will I be great, will I be great?
    C              G
Is it money I wanna make or is it sweet love
   D   D7
for his sake?

[Chorus]
      Am
When will I ever see the land?
    Fmaj7
Will I ever see the land?
  C
Oh water can`t revive me
    G
I need dirt in my hand
    Am
Will I ever see the land?
    Fmaj7
Will I ever see the land?
     C
Oh the ground will give me something
  D      Dsus4 G
I know that it can

[Outro]

Capo 1

Hi, the changes from Esus4 to Asus2 and from Amaj9 to E shoul be done fast
and putting the strum accent in Asus2 and E ... this will give you the rhythm.
This changes are in the 1st and 3rd time, and it`s all the song almost the same
Like this:

E    E4 A2    A9 E    E4 A2    A9
1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 -

Also I used a short chord name to make easy reading.

it`s look hard but if you try will see that it`s just a lot of chords but easy to
play.


As allways, suggestions are welcome. Thanks.

 Oh just think, what we could be
          E4 A2     A9 E       E4 A2
 I swear I`ll dress cooler if you just go home with me

  Same airport different dress,
B               C#7
  this one is blue and it is longer then the rest.
F#m      F#m
  Same airport different dress,
B                 C#7
  last one was short and red and too tight for my growing chest.

[Verse]
F#m      F#m
  Same airport different life,
B              C#7
  at 16 lost my first love to a one way flight.
F#m      F#m
  Same airport different life,
B                  C#7
  sat down by the carousel looking old enough to make a wife now,
F#m      F#m
  Same airport different ride home,
B                 C#7
  last time went to my mothers this time to my own.
F#m      F#m
  Same airport different ride home,
B                 C#7             F#m
  riding shotgun next to my baby next time ill get the train alone,

[Bridge]
F#m       B    C#7
  Ill get the train alone
          F#m
  Ill get the train alone
F#m       B    C#7
  Ill get the train alone

[Outro]
F#m      F#m
  Same airport different man,
B        C#7
  he looks happy he looks happy
F#m      F#m       B C#7
  same airport different man.

No Capo
Hi, a beautiful and easy song, special for beginners.
As always, suggestions are welcome, thanks.

[Intro]
E

[Verse]
 E
Driving home the road makes me feel smaller
  E
My fear forces my hand into the shoulder
    A
And I feel you darling on my own
E
Every mile brings you a little closer

[Chorus]
   A        E
I`m driving into the Hay Plain
     A                   E
I won`t survive the night if you don`t stay in your lane
   A              E
I`m heading away from that wide sunset
     A
Wondering if my new man
    E
Misses me yet

[Verse]
 E
Baby you don`t have to drive me round no more
      E
I went and got myself a car so I can pay you back for
     A
All the times you took me back home
E
Every mile brings you a little closer

[Chorus]
   A        E
I`m driving into the Hay Plain
     A                   E
I won`t survive the night if you don`t stay in your lane
   A             E
I`m heading away from that wide sunset
     A
Wondering if my new man
      E     F#m A  E
Is in love with me yet

[Interlude]
F#m A  E
F#m A  E
F#m A  E

[Verse]
     E
Besides that truck driver on the Western Distributer
   A
Who caught me changing, sorry babe he saw everything
   E
I`ve been keeping my skin for when you fly in
     A
And you want me, physically

[Verse]
     E
Besides that night in Adelaide in the back of a cab
    A
When a good man said he`d give me what I`ve never had
   E
I`ve been keeping my eye for when you come online
     A
And you need me, emotionally

[Outro]
   A        E
I`m driving into the Hay Plain
     A                   E
I won`t survive the night if you don`t stay in your lane
   A              E
I`m heading away from that wide sunset
     A
Wondering if my new man
      E
Misses me yet

Dont Let The Kids Win - Tabbed by nickhgill

E        022100
A        x02220
F#m       244222
B7       x21202
B7(#5)     x2100x

[Verse]
E
Don`t let the kids win
Just let them lose
            A
They`re not gonna learn anything
           F#m       B7
If that`s the way you choose to play

E
Don`t let the kids win
Just let them fall
          A
You don`t want them growing up thinking
F#m                 B7
Three year olds are good at playing basketball

        E
Don`t let your grandmother die
While you`re away
        A
A cheap trip to Thailand`s not gonna make up
F#m         B7
For never getting to say goodbye

          E
And don`t let your brother
Stop thinking you`re cool
         A
I know he`s got a girlfriend now and he`s taller
F#m                   B7
But that don`t mean he`s stopped looking up to you

[Chorus]
E
I`ve got a feeling
That this won`t ever change
      A
We`re gonna keep on getting older
      F#m       B7      E
It`s gonna keep on feeling strange

[Verse]
E
Don`t let your friends turn cold
While you burn to green
     A
When they walk off the stage embrace them
          F#m       B7
And say that`s the best shit I`ve ever seen

          E
And don`t let your sister
Walk down the aisle
    A
Without pulling her close saying I love you and it`s okay
   F#m    B7
If I don`t see you for a while

[Chorus]
E
I`ve got a feeling
That this won`t ever change
      A
We`re gonna keep on getting older
      F#m       B7      E
It`s gonna keep on feeling strange

[Verse]
       E
Don`t let the time go by
Without sitting your mother down
         A
And asking what, life was like for her before you came
To be around and tell her it`s okay
          F#m
If she puts herself first
                     B7
Us kids will be alright if we`re not the centre of her universe

[Chorus]
E
I`ve got a feeling
That this won`t ever change
      A
We`re gonna keep on getting older
      F#m       B7
It`s gonna keep on feeling strange and
    E
After a late one, I don`t know anything
      A
Except the more I keep on talking
     F#m                B7(#5)   E
The less breath I got left to sing
