This is a great track off of David Gray's web exclusive live covers album "A Thousand
Behind." Originally performed by Waylon Jennings
I'm a little iffy on some of the lyrics
Capo 4
Tuning: Standard
3/4 Timing
Intro:
|F|F|F|F|
Verse 1:
This Fworld that I live in is empty and cFold
This loneliness cuts me and tears at my soul
I’Fm no child of destiny
No fortune sGon
I’ve chased you so long
I’m too weak tFo run
Verse 2: same as V.1
And here I return to a backstreet of thrill
Back to any warm shoulder till she’s got her fill
And then I treat shame like some old friend from home
Who I can lean on till the misery is gone
Chorus 1:
A nFew day is here, but nothing is nFew
G F |F|F|F|
But you’re still gone, still I tremble for you
Verse (same as 1 and 2):
I cry out at bedtime: “oh please not tonight”
Then I hear your footsteps and I turn on the light
Of course you’re never there,
No you never are
And I try to forget to that there’s always a bar
Chorus 2:
Though FI win that battle
And sometimes I dFo,
D (tempo slows down) G (strum once and hold)
Still sleep doesn’t come, and I tremble for you
very nice, simple progression found in a lot of country western songs
