Chords with lyrics

Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

Verse:
       Chord diagramG+G
It’s a good three hours to Aberdeen,
     Chord diagramB minorBm
and I’ve read all the magazines
        Chord diagramC majorC                    Chord diagramD MajorD
And the jokes are all played out
           Chord diagramG+G
or wearin’ thin

   Chord diagramG+G
So I lie back and I close my eyes and
Chord diagramB minorBm
I let that old sadness rise
      Chord diagramC majorC           Chord diagramD MajorD             Chord diagramG+G
And I listen to Hello In There again
    Chord diagramG+G              Bm/G
And riding shotgun all the time, that
Chord diagramB minorBm         Chord diagramC majorC
melancholy ghost of mine
      Chord diagramA minorAm          Chord diagramD MajorD              Chord diagramG+G
Plays Jesus to my lonely Joan of Arc
  Chord diagramC majorC            Chord diagramG+G                  Chord diagramD MajorD
Together we go ridin’ through the dark

Chorus:
Chord diagramG+G           Chord diagramB minorBm          Chord diagramC majorC        Chord diagramG+G
  I think I need to lay low for awhile
Chord diagramC majorC              Chord diagramG+G           Chord diagramA minorAm      Chord diagramD MajorD
  Stare at the Gulf of Mexico for awhile
Chord diagramG+G         Chord diagramB minorBm           Chord diagramC majorC         Chord diagramG+G
  Take it easy take it slow for awhile
Chord diagramC majorC           Chord diagramD MajorD           Chord diagramG+G
  I think I need to lay low

Verse:
  Chord diagramG+G
Tonight I’ll call to say hello,
         Chord diagramB minorBm
but your phone’s just gonna ring I know
  Chord diagramC majorC                      Chord diagramD MajorD           Chord diagramG+G
I guess some things just cannot be undone
     Chord diagramG+G
So I clutch this guitar to my chest and
Chord diagramB minorBm
wonder just what I’ll have left
     Chord diagramC majorC                Chord diagramD MajorD                   Chord diagramG+G
When all of this hard traveling’s finally done
        Chord diagramG+G             Bm/G
You say I’m not who I used to be,
     Chord diagramB minorBm            Chord diagramC majorC
that ain’t exactly news to me
Chord diagramA minorAm            Chord diagramD MajorD                  Chord diagramG+G
That girl has long since cut and run
Chord diagramC majorC               Chord diagramG+G            Chord diagramD MajorD
  But baby I am not the only one

Chorus:
Chord diagramG+G           Chord diagramB minorBm          Chord diagramC majorC        Chord diagramG+G
  I think I need to lay low for awhile
Chord diagramC majorC              Chord diagramG+G           Chord diagramA minorAm      Chord diagramD MajorD
  Stare at the Gulf of Mexico for awhile
Chord diagramG+G          Chord diagramB minorBm                 Chord diagramC majorC         Chord diagramG+G
  Tell ’em all where they can go for awhile
Chord diagramC majorC           Chord diagramD MajorD           Chord diagramG+G
  I think I need to lay low

Verse:
    Chord diagramG+G
She travels fast who goes alone,
     Chord diagramB minorBm
this wind’ll cut you to the bone
      Chord diagramC majorC                 Chord diagramD MajorD            Chord diagramG+G
These truckers sure are flyin here tonight

    Chord diagramG+G
And as for me I’m gettin by,
Chord diagramB minorBm
I still laugh but I can’t cry
     Chord diagramC majorC           Chord diagramD MajorD              Chord diagramG+G
That door is shut and locked up tight
    Chord diagramG+G               Bm/G
The days go by like hazy dreams,
    Chord diagramB minorBm                Chord diagramC majorC
the nights at least I get to sing
Chord diagramA minorAm                  Chord diagramD MajorD         Chord diagramG+G
  And suddenly it’s three AM again
         Chord diagramC majorC              Chord diagramG+G                   Chord diagramD MajorD
And this sadness like a tide that’s rollin’ in

Chorus:
Chord diagramG+G           Chord diagramB minorBm          Chord diagramC majorC        Chord diagramG+G
  I think I need to lay low for awhile
Chord diagramC majorC              Chord diagramG+G           Chord diagramA minorAm      Chord diagramD MajorD
  Stare at the Gulf of Mexico for awhile
Chord diagramG+G        Chord diagramB minorBm             Chord diagramC majorC       Chord diagramG+G
 Think I need to let it go for awhile
Chord diagramC majorC           Chord diagramD MajorD           Chord diagramG+G
  I think I need to lay low
Chord diagramC majorC           Chord diagramD MajorD           Chord diagramG+G
  I think I need to lay low
