[F#]I di[D]d

[Verse 1]
[F#]what[G] everyon[Ab]e else does[D][Bm]
[G]I drifted b[Ab]ack to my hometo[D]wn
With my [Gb]restless h[G]eart kept [Ab]hidden
Deep within my chest [Gb]I kne[Cbm]w, oh,[Gb]
[G]they'd have to [Ab]take me back aga[Db]in[D]
[Db]Put [Gb]on my sh[G]oes[Ab] to search for clues
[C#]But [Bm]you'l[G]l never fi[A]nd them there[D]
Nor [C#]with the mates [F#]from your old class
[Ab]Gathered after[D] midnight
[Bm]mass round the bar
[F#]The pre -dawn hour[Ab]s of
Christmas morning
[D]They [F#]thought I'd
outgrown them
They could [Ab]read it on my [C#]face
[F#]I wanted to [G]le[Ab]ave in my fa[C#]ce[F#]
[D]Had [C#]an app[F#]ointment t[G]o ke[Ab]ep
With the fist [C#]of some yo[D]ung fr[Bm]eak
Now that's why [G]I wear t[Ab]his scar beneath my a[D]rm[F#][G]
[Ab][D][Bm][G][Ab][D][Bm][F#]
[G][Ab][D][Bm][G][Ab][D]
[C#]Summer j[F#]ob t[G]ending lawns[Ab] for old men
[C#]They[D] sit a[Bm]round predictin[G]g
weather with [A]their
bones
[C#]Stick[D] s an[G]d stones are
more ak[Ab]in to what life
Un[Db]derneath [D]their [Cbm]skin and their soul
[Gb]Cling on to th[Ab]at skelet[D]on
And [Gb]if I had a dollar for ev[G]ery
[Ab]time I should have been [Db]paid
[Gb]Then I would[Ab] have been paid[D]
[Gb]But [Db]them eager m[Gb]oney couldn't buy
[Ab]The blue out o[Db]f th[Gb]e sk[Cbm]y or down pay
[Gb]The [G]common day w[Ab]ill stay a[C#]way[D][G][Ab][D]
[Db][Gb][G][Ab][D][Db][Gb][Ab][Db][Cbm]
[G][Gb][Ab][D]
[Gb]Some weeks before [Ab]the world [D]began[Cbm]
[Gb]I drifted ba[Ab]ck to my hom[Db]etown
[D]To all [Gb]the blessed, to the accursed
[Ab]To the pioneers who [D]got thei[Gb]r
first day in the ground
[G]For if I [Ab]come back again
[Db]To a[Gb]ll th[D]e soulful, sway[G]ing pipes
[Ab]To shoes hanging on po[F#]wer
[Bm]lines I'll [F#]keep you here
[G]For if I com[A]e bac[Ab]k aga[Db]in[D][G][Ab][D]
[Cbm][G][D][Cbm][G][Ab]
[D][Cbm][G]
you
