🎸 Verse 1:
D MajorD F# minorF#m
I am going on my way to see what’s left of Cheyenne
G+G A augmentedA
I’ve known the name all my life, ain’t put a face to it yet
B minorBm A augmentedA G+G D MajorD
And there’s just too many things I ain’t seen so I am
G+G A augmentedA D MajorD
Driving north to find it
D MajorD F# minorF#m
And every couple miles the reception dies on out
G+G A augmentedA
And there’s a buzzing in my mind a little looming cloud
B minorBm A augmentedA G+G D MajorD
Like I’m waiting on a call that I’m gonna miss somehow
G+G A augmentedA D MajorD
Ain’t that some sweet irony

I was hoping to feel something undeniable
G+G D MajorD A augmentedA

G+G A augmentedA D MajorD
To being wholly unremarkable

There’s a dead famous writer buried in some southern state
G+G A augmentedA
He won the Pulitzer Prize, now he’s a weekend trip away
B minorBm A augmentedA G+G D MajorD
And I figured I’d sit calmly in the grass beside his grave
G+G A augmentedA D MajorD
But it was dirt and empty bottles

I was hoping to feel something undeniable
G+G D MajorD A augmentedA
I was sold a bill of goods by documentaries and books

And it strikes me that he would be shaken by this scene
G+G A augmentedA D MajorD
So doesn’t that make me the problem
