Nashville chords by Rhett Miller

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                C               G
Well I married Caroline back in May of ?99
       C               G          D                 C
it was fucked up at the time but I figured we?d keep tryin?
    G                   C                 G
her brother and her dad they were spitting mad
       C                G               D              C
when I packed up what I had and took off runnin? it was bad
       G                           C          G
it was mean I didn?t care and it?s gotten me nowhere
       D                         G

VERSE 2:
         G                              C            G
I turned left turns into right I turned sunshine into night
         C                G         D             C
I got my ass kicked every fight no I couldn?t get it right
        G                     C          G
I built castles out of sand I didn?t understand
    C           G                D              C
why everything I planned ran like whiskey off my hand
       G                               C               G
and my hands were never clean things I wished I?d never seen
       C          G                 D             C
I?d do anything to wake up from this motherfuckin? dream

CHORUS:
G                          C              G
Who do I got to blow to get in this fuckin? show
     C              G              D              C
it?s dark in there I know and I got nowhere else to go
      G                            C          G
but I need a place to hide so I?ll put away my pride
           C              D        G
and come inside ?cause I?m tired of running

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

it?s dark in there I know and I got nowhere else to go
      G                            C          G
but I need a place to hide so I?ll put away my pride
           C              D        G
and come inside ?cause I?m tired of running
G                          C              G
