As recorded by Dispatch
(From the 2021 Album BREAK OUR FALL)
 
[Verse 1]
D A D
Came of age racing round the Georgia hills
A
Grew tall and straight around the backwood stills
D G
You could do anything on the court and field
G A D
But you preferred getting high on the roof of the motel
 
[Chorus]
D G D
One by one all the living that we done
Bm A
How the days they seemed so long and true
D G D
One by one all the whiskey that got drunk
Bm A D
Nothing ever felt as good as you
 
[Verse 2]
D A D
I saw you first from the back of the room
A
We drank together by the light of the moon
D G
Built a fire and slept when the ground chooses you
D A D
And wake up with the morning sun
 
[Chorus]
D G D
One by one all the living that we done
Bm A
How the days they seemed so long and true
D G D
One by one all the whiskey that got drunk
Bm A D N.C.
Nothing ever felt as good as you
 
[Bridge]
Bm A D
But can you give us all a sign
Em A
I don't know how to let go or hold tighter still
G A D
Remember when you were mine
Em
But now it's all over, no chance to reconsider
G
I want to call you in from the outside, I want
G
To call you in for dinner
D A
But you're not there, you're not there
G D N.C.
What do I do with the years I have left that don't belong to you
 
[Chorus]
D G D
One by one all the living that we done
Bm A
How the days they seemed so long and true
D G D
One by one all the whiskey that got drunk
Bm A D N.C.
Nothing ever felt as good as you
 
[Outro]
Bm D
Let's get a jump on this, before it's too late
G D A
Can we love each other harder before we all fade away
G Bm A
If there's any way that we can live without you
G D
It's to live with all the love that you gave
