Justin Townes Earle - Today and a lonely night

^C/GFor six weeks straight^Fmaj7/C I've been staying ^C/Gup too late^Fmaj7/C Book torn to pieces ^Ampage by page ^GNothing learned, ^Fmaj7/Cnothing gained

^C/Gbut I've got no where t^Fmaj7/Co go Threats on the city and the ^C/Gbridges are closed^Fmaj7/C Yesterday fell a ^Amfull foot of snow^G from a slate black ^Fmaj7/Csky, a bright white glow

^C/GBut I've been thinking of going ^Fmaj7/Cwest Just to climb up as ^C/Ghigh as I can get^Fmaj7/C Press my soles to ^Ampaths great men ^Gsettin' Push me right^Fmaj7/C out to the edge

^C/GCause I know inside I'll ^Fmaj7/Cfind my way back to the ^C/Gcity sometime ^Fmaj7/C Feel the ground shake as a train ^Amgoes by ^GNot a one ^Fmaj7/Cstar in the sky

^C/GMy baby she just ^Fmaj7/Ccalled and said The ^C/Gmidtown tunnel's ^Fmaj7/Copened So let's ^Amride And I said ^C/Gdarling I just don't ^Fmaj7/Cfeel much like ^C/Ggoing to ^Fmaj7/CBrooklyn ton^C/Gight

I^C/G should try to sleep ^Fmaj7/C Lay me down and ^C/Gtry to breath^Fmaj7/Ce Count each time my ^Amheart skips a beat Not one ^Glight in the house but what comes ^Fmaj7/Cin from the street
