Timmins and The Cowboy Junkies, from the album Caution Horses submitted and transcribed in June 1998 by Brent Wood, bwood@artcenter.edu

It'^Gs the kinda nig^Cht that's so cold that your spit free^Gzes before it hits the ground. ^GAnd when a bu^Cm asks for a quarter, you give a dollar, ^C'cuz if he's^D out tonight, he must be truly down. An^Cd I'm searchin' all the windows for a last minute present to prove ^Amto you that what I said was real... For ^Dsomething smal^Cl and frail and plastic, baby Cause che^Gap is how I feel.

^GHalf a mo^Con in the sky tonight- not enough to ^Gcome up with an answer to the quest^Cion why is it that every time I see you my^G love grows a little stronger. But^C your memory leaves my stomach turning, feeling ^Dlike a liar about to be revealed... But I ^Amhoard ^Call this to myself, Cause che^Gap is how I feel.

(guitar solo)

^GIt's not the smell ^Cin here that really gets to me, it's the lights- How I hat^Ge the shadows that they cast. ^GAnd the soun^Cd of clinking bottles is the one sure thing I'll alway^Ds drag with me from my past. I think^C I'll find a pair of eyes tonight to fall into and ^Ammaybe strike a deal: Your ^Dbody for my ^Csoul, face swap, Cause che^Gap is how I feel.

Keep on playing, gang. Brent Wood bwood@artcenter.edu
