WHERE A BOY ONCE STOOD
As recorded by Shakey Graves
(From the 2017 Album THE MAN FROM TAURED)
[Intro]
Am F#m E
Am
[Verse 1]
Am
I got a stick and a bed in the rye
Am
Give me the chance, I’ll be there by your side
Dm F#m Am
It’s a long cold country with nobody home
F E
If you want to face it you can face it alone or with me
[Verse 2]
Am
Yeah, but if you don’t watch me closely I'll flee to the wood
Am
Leave a gap in your heart where a boy once stood
Dm F#m
Cut it off but still it grows
F E
Back in all the places you don’t want it show the most
[Interlude]
Am F#m E N.C.
Am
[Verse 3]
Am
If you’re still having trouble, go call up your priest
Am
Tell him there’s some fella giving you grief
Gm
It’s that lanky old loner on the outskirts of town
Fm E
Telling you lies and wearing you down
Am
And if he can’t help, you go call the judge
Am
Tell him you’re afraid you’ve fallen in love
F#m
There’s nowhere to go but down from here
Fm E
So come along, baby, we got nothing to fear
[Bridge]
D N.C.
I forgot her
N.C.
Moment that I saw her
Am
Scream and shout and wake the silent mountains
D F#m
It’s perfect at large, perfect at large
Fm Dm
Perfect at large with nothing to do
F#m
When no one at all, no one at all
F E
No one at all is searching for you
[Outro]
F F# G G# A A# B
C D E A G N.C.
