OLD WOUNDS - John Moreland


Verse:
D MajorD            G+G
 I wanna fall asleep forever
G+G           D MajorD
 I wanna learn to disappear
                    G+G       G/DG/D
Can you take away the mess, that’s been building in my chest
A augmentedA                 G+G
 Drowning out the song I used to hear
D MajorD                 G+G
 Love’s a violent word, don’t you forget it
               D MajorD
 I ain’t saying that you ever could
D MajorD
I’ve seen my seasons change
   G+G        G/DG/D
I was crying out your name
A augmentedA         D MajorD       G+G
Remember when we used to feel so good

Chorus:
  G+G              D MajorD G+G D MajorD
So don’t forget to love me in damnation
    G+G        D MajorD        E minorEm
For the living I have earned on love gone wrong
      G+G          D MajorD  G+G  D MajorD
And we’ll open up old wounds in celebration
     G+G     D MajorD         G+G
If we don’t bleed, it don’t feel like a song


D MajorD            G+G
You got your honest intuition
G+G           D MajorD
You got your cigarette smoke
                   G+G       G/DG/D
And I’m all your oldest fears, the black mark on last year
A augmentedA      D MajorD        G+G
But I got the hope you let me hold
D MajorD               G+G
So let them judge and shove us under
          D MajorD
And let them do the devil’s work
D MajorD
Let them calculate the crimes
G+G         G/DG/D
in all our broken rhymes
A augmentedA          D MajorD         G+G
But let us find the heaven following the hurt


Chorus:
G+G                 D MajorD G+G D MajorD
So don’t forget to love me in damnation
    G+G       D MajorD         E minorEm
For the living I have earned on love gone wrong
     G+G           D MajorD G+G D MajorD
And we’ll open up old wounds in celebration
      G+G      D MajorD        G+G
