Rome chords and lyrics - DAN BERN

Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
[Em]We pulled into Rome
With [Am]blood in our eyes
After [B]days of travelin'
[Em]Months of lies
Taking our various
[Am]Turns at the wheel
Taking [B]booze
And pot and cigarettes
Any[Em]thing not to feel
No one had slept
[Am]No one had eaten
Our [B]bodies were bad
[Em]Our spirits were beaten
Together we dragged
[Am]All of us down
As [B]we staggered through Rome
[Em]Blaming the town
Blaming the students
For wor[Am]ship of others
[B]Blaming the cops
[Em]And blaming their brothers
And never quite looking
[Am]Ourselves in the heart
And [B]minute by minute
Growing [Em]further apart

[Verse 2]
[Em]Julia, Julia
[C]Where have you gone?
[Am]Why have you vanished
[B]Off of my lawn?
[Em]Julia, Julia
[C]Where is your truck?
[Am]Where have you driven
With [B]all of my luck?

[Verse 3]
But [Em]even old bull fighters
Their [Am]grave stones in sight
Must [B]search 'till they unearth
One [Em]last bull to fight
And so it was with us
[Am]So near to the end
One [B]last story to tell
One last [Em]hill to defend
One glance to avoid
One [Am]guitar to strum
One un[B]truth to be told
One last [Em]song to be sung
And you, the most brilliant
Most [Am]driven, most keen
[B]Jewel of a bastard
I [Em]ever have seen
And you and your turn
A good [Am]bitch of the nile
So [B]real to the end
Nothing [Em]left to defile
And me in the middle
[Am]Along for the ride
The un[B]willing distraction
[Em]From familiocide
And knowing our weaknesses
[Am]No one refrained
From [B]picking
And prodding
'Till noth[Em]ing remained

[Verse 4]
[Em]Julia, Julia
[C]Where have you gone?
[Am]Why have you vanished
[B]Off of my lawn?
[Em]Ju lia, Julia
[Am]Where [C]is your truck?
[Am]Where have you driven
[B]With all of my luck?

[Verse 5]
And [Em]now in this kitchen
[Am]Miles from home
[B]Miles from anything
[Em]Miles from Rome
Rome was a bust
[Am]Rome was a scream
Rome was the [B]final
Rapid eye move[Em]ment
To this dream
We scattered like leaves
Like [Am]pieces of dust
[B]Warriors watching
Their [Em]swords and shields rust
And now as we descend
To [Am]couches and clocks
[B]To closets and appointments
Let us [Em]drink to the rocks
Let us drink to the sand
[Am]To the winds which have blowed us
Let us [B]drink to the rivers
Let us [Em]drink to the road
[Am][B]

[Verse 6]
[Em]
And if you travel this far
From either [Am]con science or greed
Have one [B]piece of advice
That [Em]I think you should heed
If ever your travels
Take you [Am]this far from home
Con[B]sult your map carefully
[Em]Stear clear of Rome

[Interlude 1]
[Em][C][Am][B][Em]

[Verse 7]
[C]Julia, [Am]Julia[B][Em]
Where [C]have you gone?
[Am]Why have you vanished
[B]Off of my lawn?
[Em]Julia, Julia
[C]Where is your truck?
[Am]Where have you driven
With [B]all of my luck?
