Chords with lyrics
N.C. A augmentedA
He was a drinking man with a guitar problem
E MajorE BB
Didn't have a dollar to his name
E MajorE A augmentedA
He didn't seem to mind that all that often
E MajorE BB
He mostly took whatever came
A augmentedA BB
And if it came too late, or it came to nothing
E MajorE A augmentedA
He'd swear beneath his breath
E MajorE Esus4Esus4 E MajorE Esus4Esus4
There's gotta be something to it
E MajorE Esus4Esus4 E MajorE
There's gotta be something to it
N.C. A augmentedA
She lost her mind and she never missed it
E MajorE BB
Folks all said she'd never learn
E MajorE A augmentedA
She'd take the path of least resistance
E MajorE BB
Right to the point of no return
A augmentedA BB
Apprehended on occasion, got off easy every time
E MajorE A augmentedA
Said there's gotta be something to it, something to it
E MajorE Esus4Esus4 E MajorE Esus4Esus4
Don't know why else you'd wanna, put yourself through it
Chorus
BB E MajorE BB E MajorE
Well, the nights are gettin' colder, restless as the wind
BB E MajorE A augmentedA BB A augmentedA E MajorE
I'll be comin' over, fast as I can, fast as I can
N.C. A augmentedA
Well, he had some lines, but he never used them
E MajorE BB
She didn't need much talkin' to
E MajorE A augmentedA
And he thought he'd died and gone to Houston
E MajorE BB
By the time the dawn burned off the dew
A augmentedA BB
And it lit right up, like Roman candles, like fire and gasoline
E MajorE A augmentedA
And there must have been something to it, something to it
E MajorE Esus4Esus4 E MajorE Esus4Esus4
Didn't mess around, they had to get right to it
Repeat Chorus
N.C. A augmentedA
So for a while they carried on like rabbits
E MajorE BB
They''d disappear for days and nights
E MajorE A augmentedA
You might say they learned, each other''s habits
E MajorE BB
You might say that became their life
A augmentedA BB
And life wasn''t long, life wasn''t easy
E MajorE A augmentedA
Life wasn''t cheap, life wasn''t fair
E MajorE Esus4Esus4 E MajorE Esus4Esus4
And there might have been something to it, something to it
Repeat Chorus Twice
