It Don't Suit Me Like Before chords by John Moreland

Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

D    G    D     G

A
Well we haven't got all night
Em
Come on and raise a toast
G                                     D
We're only one time aiming for the sun
A
Thought weâd be grinding all our gears
Em
Til we're giving up the ghost
G                                          D
And grieving from the ties that we'd undone

G                                              D
I'm still staring at the sky, like at the start
G                    D             A
With all these heavy anchors on my heart

G                                  D
But they don?'t suit me, babe, like before
G                                D
They don't suit me like they did before
G                              D
Always waving flags and waging wars
G                         D
But it don't suit me like before
G                     D
It don't suit me like before

A
Well folks like me and you
Em
We don't know how to call a truce
G                                              D
And when we canât lose the fight, we just lose touch
A
So we sit comparing scars
Em
Strumming on the stars
G                          D
And leaning on the oldest, closest crutch

G                    D
Don't let me turn to dust to turn a phrase
D                                            A
Could you help me wash these years off of my face?
G                                  D
But they don?'t suit me, babe, like before
G                                D
They don't suit me like they did before
G                              D
Always waving flags and waging wars
G                         D
But it don't suit me like before
G                     D
It don't suit me like before

G                                    D
I used to have a prisoner's point of view
G                         D          A
Now I only care for being seen by you
G                                  D
But they donâ?'t suit me, babe, like before
G                                D
They don't suit me like they did before
G                              D
Always waving flags and waging wars
G                         D
But it don't suit me like before
G                     D
It don't suit me like before
G                         D
But it don't suit me like before
G                     D
It don't suit me like before
