Afinação: E A D G B ECapotraste: Sem capotraste
[Verse 1]
D
Farewell to the river
A
The wrath fo cupid's quiver
Bm G
But that's not why I shiver in the shade
D
The last time that I'll see you
A
Or steal your breath from lips blue
Bm G
Lost the love we grew, begin to fade
D
And driving back to Charleston
A
I swear you'll be the last one
Bm G
to ever pull a fast one over me
D
But that all crumbles down around
A
As I roll back on into town
Bm G
The last thing that I'm feelin' now is free
[Chorus 1]
E
But an Appalachian sunset
D
Can never make me regret
A G
The way your twisted whispers made me fold
E
Now drinking back a duet
D
Of long lost dreams and upset
A G
Just like in the stories I've been told
E
Of lonely mountain lights
D
Or the Shenandoah lights
A G
Now the only thing to ever have a hold
E
Of the hole that was my heart
D
Yeah I know I played my part
A G
But you didn't have to be so god damned cold
D, A, Bm, G x2
[Verse 2]
D
Now southbound through Kentucky
A
Hoping I will be lucky
Bm G
To find a bit more warmth down there somewhere
D
I drive the road all damned night
A
Till I see the morning light
Bm G
Through tears I never realised that were there
D
Following the Mississippi
A
And the voice I hear within me
Bm G
As I leave behind the trees your cold stripped bare
D
That voice cries your the last one
A
To ride with me in shotgun
Bm G
Your absence in the closeness of the air
[Chorus 2]
E
But as I pass through Baton Rouge
D
Once again I feel the fool
A
The way your twisted whipsers made me fold
E
Ignore the preacher tell
D
Amazing grace and fiery hell
A G
Just like in the stories I've been told
E
Now lost within the Bayou
D
Still haunted by the dreams of you
A G
Oppressive heat is where I will grow old
E
Now at last I start to see
D
And finally feelin' free
A G
But you didn't have to be so god damned cold
A G D
No you didn't have to be so god damned cold
