[Intro 1]

[C]

[Verse 1]
I still remember Miss Bessie [C]singing
Black, [D]wrinkled fingers on
ivory [Em]keys[C]
Just five years old,
[G]my church shoes [D]a dangling
Yeah, she's [C]long gone and
I'm still [G]chasing this song

[Verse 2]
With [G]a guitar [D]full of freedom
and a [G]head [D]full of lines
That [G]nightlife [D]full of demons
has been a [Em]hell [D]of a ride
I got a [G]crazy [D]heart,
but I was [G]born [D]to lose it
[G]Married [D]to a dream with a
[Em]mistress named music
[D][C][D][F][D][G][D]

[Verse 3]
[C]No hope and
squarely solitary
Enough whiskey and Coke,
boys, to get me [D]in a bind
[C]Amps juiced,
the [G]whole damn block [D]could hear me
Even that cop car rolling [C]past
By the time they hit the front [G]door
I was out the back

[Verse 4]
With [G]a guitar [D]full of freedom
and a [G]head [D]full of lines
That [G]nightlife [D]full of demons
has been a [Em]hell of a [D]ride
I got a [G]crazy [D]crazy heart,
and I was [G]born [D]to lose it
[G]Married [D]to a dream with a [Em]mistress
named mu[D]sic

[Interlude 1]
[D][G][D][A][D]

[Verse 5]
[C]White calloused fingers on
bronze and nylon
[Dsus4]These sam[D]e o[C]ld boots[G]
are still tapping [D]time
[C]Not quite the buz[G]z I used to tie[D] on
But 'til I'm [C]gone, I'll be chasing [G]this song

[G]With a guitar

[Verse 6]
[D]full of freedom
and a [G]head [D]full of lines
That [G]nightlife [D]full of demons
has been a [Em]hell of a [D]ride
I got a [G]crazy [D]heart,
and I was [G]born [D]to lose it
[G]Married [D]to a dream with a
[Em]mistress named [D]music
I'm [G]married [D]to a dream with a
[Em]mistress [D]named music
