Nashville chords by Rhett Miller

Chords with lyrics

This tab is based on Rhett Miller's solo performance. Have seen him a
number of times and there is often a variation on the instrumental
breaks, and sometimes a longer intro and outro and sometimes not but
generally stays within the chord pattern here.

VERSE 1:
    G+G        C majorC        G+G
Well I married Caroline back in May of ?99
    C majorC        G+G     D MajorD         C majorC
it was fucked up at the time but I figured we?d keep tryin?
  G+G          C majorC         G+G
her brother and her dad they were spitting mad
    C majorC        G+G        D MajorD       C majorC
when I packed up what I had and took off runnin? it was bad
    G+G              C majorC     G+G

VERSE 2:
     G+G               C majorC      G+G
I turned left turns into right I turned sunshine into night

I got my ass kicked every fight no I couldn?t get it right

I built castles out of sand I didn?t understand
  C majorC      G+G        D MajorD       C majorC
why everything I planned ran like whiskey off my hand
    G+G                C majorC        G+G
and my hands were never clean things I wished I?d never seen
    C majorC     G+G         D MajorD       C majorC
I?d do anything to wake up from this motherfuckin? dream

it?s dark in there I know and I got nowhere else to go
   G+G              C majorC     G+G

And there?s a universe that?s floating out in space
   G+G                C majorC
and I look up there and I can?t find my face
    G+G            A minorAm
and I?m seein? my reflection backstage
D MajorD
writin? down the same old words on the same old page

CHORUS:
