Things That you Know
The Wailin' Jennys

Intro:

Dm - F - C - G - Dm - F


Verse 1:

C      G          C      F - C
It's been a long time since you saw your home
    F          C
Even those you call the closest
    F      G
Have slipped away somehow
C        G         C      F - C
Feels like a lifetime you've been on the road
     F      C
With so many miles behind you
            F         G
You'd think you'd have left this world by now
C       G          C    F - C
You've seen more than they could ever know
   F       C
No matter what they say
          F       G
You've earned the right to be so bold
C     G         C     F - C
But this life it takes its toll on you
F      C          F      G
Every face around you looks so tired and so old

Pre-chorus:

Dm      C      F
And you have not seen everything
Dm    C      F
You have not seen everything


Chorus:

C        G       Dm
But there are things that you know
         C
Things that you know
C   G         Dm
From where you've had to go
           C
Where you've had to go
C    G         Dm
Maybe soon you'll find a place
      Dm-F
To call your own
        C
To call your home


Verse 2:

C         G         C      F - C
You've walked a good mile in your brother's shoes
      F          C
'Til your legs could walk no further
      F        G
And your tired soles would burn
C         G        C      F - C
You know there's peace somewhere around the bend
F            C
It's been a long time coming
       F       G
And you're ready for your turn


Pre-chorus:

Dm      C      F
And you have not seen everything
Dm    C      G
You have not seen everything


Chorus:

C        G      Dm
But there are things that you know
         C
Things that you know
C   G        Dm
From where you've had to go
           C
Where you've had to go
C    G        Dm
Maybe soon you'll find a place
      Dm-F
To call your own
        C
To call your home


Chorus:

C        G       Dm
But there are things that you know
         C
Things that you know
C   G         Dm
From where you've had to go
           C
Where you've had to go
C    G         Dm
Maybe soon you'll find a place
      Dm-F
To call your own
        C
