Quiet, Heavy Dreams Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D][A][Bm][G][D][Esus4][A][D]

[Verse 1]
Mighty [D]long
shifts are for working
Heavy dream[A]s are for t[Bm]oting around
[G]Let's pretend there's a
[D]place to go
Where I can [A]lay this [D]hacksaw down

[Verse 2]
And I've been [D]trying all my damnedest
To get where [A]a kind w[Bm]o man lies
[G]Ten more hours to a [D]twelve
long shift
'Til these [A]woods turn to [D]her eyes

[Verse 3]
[D]Timber cuts so cleanly
Monday morn[A]ing when the [Bm]blades are sharp
I [G]get a love song stuck [D]in my head
And cut se[A]quoia 'til it's [D]dark

[Verse 4]
If every [G]hour's fourteen [D]dollars
or [A]a chance [Bm]closer to her
Then [G]I'm not just a [D]working mule,
I'm the [A]finest [Bm]of the herd
[G]And I don't know w[D]ho she
is [A]or if [Bm]she might exist
But [G]if she does I swear [D]to love I'm [A]destined
for that [D]kiss

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

[Verse 5]
How's [D]a man get so homesick
For a [A]face he's [Bm]never seen?
I [G]close my eyes while sweat[D]ing
And think [A]of boys I could've [D]been

[Verse 6]
But I [D]know that it's not over
'Cause I can [A]feel her here
[Bm]somewhere
[G]Through these trees and [D]melodies
That I'm [A]belting to the [D]air

[Verse 7]
If every [G]hour's fourteen [D]dollars
or [A]a chance [Bm]closer to it
The [G]man I thought I'd [D]be
when [A]I w[Bm]as just a kid
So [G]I'll just saw [D]away and let
[A]them all fall [Bm]to the ground
Hope to [G]heaven someone [D]hears me
Even [A]though no one's [D]around

[Interlude 2]
[A][Bm][G][D][A][D]

[Verse 8]
[D]Mighty long shifts are for working
Quiet dream[A]s are for toting a[Bm]round
[G]Let's pretend there's a
[D]place to go
Where I can [A]lay this [D]hacksaw down
