Mistress Named Music

Capo 3 C I still remember Miss Bessie singing D Black, wrinkled fingers on ivory keys C D Just five years old, my church shoes a-dangling C G C Yeah, she's long gone and I'm still chasing this song G D G D With a guitar full of freedom and a head full of lines G D Em D That nightlife full of demons has been a hell of a ride D G Cadd9 G I got a crazy heart, but I was born to lose it D G Em D Married to a dream with a mistress named music C No hope and squarely solitary D Enough whiskey and Coke, boys, to get me in a bind C D Amps juiced, the whole damn block could hear me C Even that cop car rolling past G By the time they hit the front door D I was out the back G D G D With a guitar full of freedom and a head full of lines G D Em D That nightlife full of demons has been a hell of a ride D G Cadd9 G I got a crazy heart, but I was born to lose it D G Em D Married to a dream with a mistress named music (na na na...............) D Cadd9 G D D Cadd9 Em D C White calloused fingers on bronze and nylon C D These same old boots are still tapping time C D Not quite the buzz I used to tie on C G But 'til I'm gone, I'll be chasing this song G D G D With a guitar full of freedom and a head full of lines G D Em D That nightlife full of demons has been a hell of a ride D G Cadd9 G I got a crazy heart, but I was born to lose it D G Em D Married to a dream with a mistress named music
