The Ballad Of Oregon chords by River City Extension

Chords with lyrics

E MajorE
Of all the things that please you
E MajorE
You'd have thought I'd found a way
BB
Though I probably shouldn't think of it
E MajorE
I think most every day

I know you hear my voice sometimes
C# minorC#m
It's in a different way
BB
I feel you in my sleep these nights
E MajorE
But lose you come the day-a-hey-hey...

Why don't we go to Oregon
E MajorE
And chase some kind of dream?
BB
The sky feels bigger in the country
E MajorE
And I could use some room to breathe
E MajorE
Well, I've never felt so lonely
E MajorE
As I do when you're with me
BB
I'll be whistling about my secrets
E MajorE
I'll get naked with the trees
BB
I'll be breaking through the winter
E MajorE
Catching glimpses through the seams

E MajorE
One more time, singing

Over the line
A augmentedA
That I want something that just isn't mine
A augmentedA
But I do...
E MajorE
Get into whiskey

And I'll settle my mind
A augmentedA
Oh, the way things were was treating everyone just fine
A augmentedA
And now for you...

E MajorE
GUITAR SOLO DEAL

E MajorE
Stretching all my thoughts
E MajorE
About as far as they can go
BB
Let me occupy my mind
E MajorE
Let me pacify my soul

If I'm ever feeling crazy
E MajorE
Find the words to let you know
BB
Think I might stop my boyish stutter
E MajorE
Think I'd learn to let you go
BB
Think I'd make it through the winter
E MajorE
Think I'd find some room to grow
E MajorE
Oh, these are the debts we think we know
BB
To wanting something I am losing touch with
E MajorE
Things I'll never live to hold
A augmentedA
So I am sending out a message
BB
I'll get through to you somehow
A augmentedA
I'll surround myself with everything
BB
That occupies me now
A augmentedA
I get drunk and I get reckless
A augmentedA
I get scared and I get stoned
A augmentedA
Oh, I get scared when I'm alone
A augmentedA
I guess I thought you would've known
A augmentedA
I guess I figured it had shown

Still...
E MajorE
Everytime I leave you
E MajorE
It gets difficult to find my way back home
BB
(There's got to be another choice,
E MajorE
There's got to be an answer on your own)

Everytime I see you
E MajorE
It gets difficult to leave these things alone

A augmentedA
