[Intro]
Em Am D G
Em Am D G
[Verse 1]
Em Am
No peace unless y'all find yonder
D G
Looking up on the Heartline
Em
It sure looks good tonight
Am D
The Southern sky, it dims, calling me back in
G Em
Looks like a friend, I'm just chasing the wind
[Chorus]
Em C G
Blues got me down, I'm dragging on
D Em
My baby's not here with me, might as well be dead and gone
C G
Said he had to leave me, I felt like it rained

The Heartline's not a hill, I climbed a mountain again
[Interlude]

[Verse 2]
Am
My baby had to leave
D
Now I'm losing sleep
G Em
Wish it was a dream, it's just reality
Am
I'll ride until I die
D
Hills and hollows wide
G Em
Every place I find takes me back to that Heartline
[Chorus]
Em C G
Blues got me down, the spirit in the wind
D Em
Wonder if it's the devil or if it's just my friend
C G
Days go by quickly, nights drive along
D Em
The Heartline's not a hill, but I'm still singing this song

[Verse 3]
Em Am D
I made up my mind right at closing time
G Em
These memories, they haunt me, so I guess you'll have to die
Am
It's not a sin I raise
D
Him in the grave
G
He's the one who left me
Em
Now he has to pay
[Chorus]
C G
Blues got me down, all the things I've tried
D Em
To keep my thoughts from chasing me into the great divide
C G
The day he had to leave me, I felt like it rained
D Em
The Heartline's not a hill, but he'll be buried there some day
[Outro]
