Jeff Daniels - Holy hotel

^CMy told-you-so done told me to ^CMy know-it-all knew what to do But the fact-^Amof-the-matter is a word-to-the-wise It’s^Am all right there when I close my eyes I was built^F for speed, not to last I was sh^Fining bright now I’m fadin^Cg fast^G7 Like ye^Csterdays and remember-whens And ^Ceverywhere I ever been Still ^Amburns inside this soul of mine ^AmTook all the turns and turned out find I c^Fan’t recall when it was but it was just in time, Just be^Ccause ^G7

I was ^Amnever fond of fare-thee-wells Long go^Amodbyes and time-will-tells ^FSee you soon say so long ^FToo damn bad it’s good as gone ^GBaby, if you promised not to ^Ftell, ^GBaby, if you promised not to ^Ftell, ^GBaby, if you promised not to ^Ftell, I’m c^Fhecking out of tha^G7t holy h^Amotel.

Well, the ^Ctrain pulled out when the truth pulled in If ^CI were me I’d do it all again Now I’m^Am rocking away in this rocking chair With the ^Amgood and the bad and the just ain’t-fair And now it’^Fs you and me and Father Time Just wai^Ftin’ on that perfec^Ct rhyme. ^{G7 C}Well, I never believed I’d ever belong ^CWhere you get all you can from those getting along And gi^Amven the choice ‘twixt the two, can’t say either one will do But no^Fwadays, those days of yore ^FAre just washing up on some distant ^Cshore ^G7

^Am[oh,^Am oh,^F oh^F, oh, oh, oh] ^CEvery place I am and everywhere I go ^CI come face to face with what I’ll never know ^AmRegrets are few, say what you will ^AmBut I’ve seen the world while standing still When the sun goes do^Fwn and that darkness falls ^FThis know-it-all lived and I loved it ^Call ^G7
