Guitar chords with lyrics
- Capo on 5th
Performance @ The Belting Bronco session Key: G Intro: G C G C G C Verse: G C G I’ve got plates for purple gas G C G About the only break I catch G C G But I am not the kind of man G C G To blame the dealer on a losing hand G C G Have a lone star in my eye G C G The darker the sky the brighter it shines G C G Pumpjack cheques and baler twine G C G A ton of grit or maybe it’s spite
Chorus:
Am
And if I weren’t a flatland boy
C
I’d say I have a hill
Am
A hill that I will die upon
C
If the climb don’t get me killed
Am
if there were such heights around here
C
For a guy to lay his pride
Am
Maybe I’d rest before I died
C G
If I weren’t a flatland boy
Verse:
G C G
I hammer down, hair straight back
G C G
The world blurs past, tell me how’s it that
G C G
My horizon line ‘s static
G C G
I guess at least it’s a sure bet
G C G
Was taught to not throw the first fist
G C G
But if you take a hit - finish that sumbitch
G C G
In a life having the upper hand’s a myth
G C G
Your only fighting chance is too stubborn to quit
Chorus:
Am
And if I weren’t a flatland boy
C
I’d say I have a hill
Am
A hill that I will die upon
C
If the climb don’t get me killed
Am
if there were such heights around here
C
For a guy to lay his pride
Am
Maybe I’d rest before I died
C G
If I weren’t a flatland boy
Verse:
G C G
Retired rail ties, 0.9 wire,
G C G
neighbour kid on the fencing pliers
G C G
Fargo that turns over fine
G C G
At 40 below if you cuss it right
G C G
A sly thumb of Rye sometimes
G C G
Keep a bottle hid with the Bio-Mycin
G C
You can dull the edge, you can look ahead
Am G
But you can’t get there, it goes on forever
Am G
Oh it just goes on forever
Am G
You keep your head down, it goes on forever
G C G
but I’ve got plates for purple gas
G C G
Oh I’ve got plates for purple gas Published:
