Key: Eb * - One Strum Intro: D Bm A G Verse 1: D It's rainin' out in Soho, you're tellin' me, "Don't go" Bm Tucked outside a bar door, what are we alive for? A G I could call a car or we could walk down the avenue
I wrote a song for you S About that spot in Ireland, you got on the table when Bm That man played his sad songs for me and all my drunken friends A You danced there and I did too G That night I wrote a song for you D And you remind me of some old timey photo that I saw Bm In the doorway on a long day, in your black-lace bra A Started writin' when I met you, I'll be writin' when I die G This song for you Chorus: D A Bm G I heard you told your daddy 'bout some boy in the city D A Bm G He's Oklahoma trash, but he's real kind with me D A Bm G Does a boy get tired of playin' those tunes D A D But I wrote this song for you [Break] D Bm A G Verse 2: D Deep within my lower spine, I see you drinkin' summer wine Bm At a venue out in Dublin, back when I said nothing A Wish I'd said then the things I'm thinkin' now G I wrote a song for you D And all these people tellin' me I ain't what I used to be Bm But you've known me since I was naive and twenty-three A G I could give a shit about what these people say I am I wrote a song for you D And I feel like a kid again when you start askin' questions Bm About my mama, Oklahoma or the way I'm sleepin' A When they took the boy you knew, sold him for profit G I had you in my arms last night, but I lost it [Break] D Bm A G Chorus: D A Bm G I heard you told your daddy 'bout some boy in the city D A Bm G He's Oklahoma trash, but he's real kind with me D A Bm G Does a boy get tired of playin' those tunes D A D But I wrote this one for you D A D Yeah, I wrote this one for you [Break] D Bm A G Outro: D Maybe you move on, do something different Bm Find yourself a sober man who golfs and is Christian A But in everything I say and in everything I do G* I wrote this song for you
