Capo 1st fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Well my mind's still limber but my heart's grown old

From the time I left the only place I know

And it makes me happy we didn't get let go

I couldn't stand to see our love just decompose

Now I've been walking home nearly every night

And here's to everyone I ever loved but had to leave behind

For the one thing I can't find though I've been looking half my life

And it's damn hard to explain but I will try it if you like

If you ask me once I'll tell you so

That the blue between us never felt so cold

And I miss the folk singers from the days of old

When a three chord song could save your soul

And no I'm never on time least that's what I'm told

So why's everything feel like it moves too slow?

And if I were scared I wouldn't let it show

Cause if I die tonight I'm not going home

Why's it seem so wrong to miss the town you love?

When there's just one state that you cannot stop thinking of

I wouldn't say I'm patriotic, but I think that's what I've become

Sometimes it takes where you are not just to remember where you're from

Was it my fault that I meant, every single word I said?

When it told you it was not the end

And if everything goes wrong, I hope we can get along

If I lost you I would lose my best friend

And now we're weathering the storm, side by side we're looking on

It takes a certain kind of love to bear this load

But it's not the tired romance of the open road
