..progression is the same for the rest of the song (verse-chorus-verse-chorus..) There's nowhere left in this world where to go my arms, my legs they're a-tremblin' thoughts both clouded and blue as the sky not even worth the rememberin' Now as I stumble and reel to my bed all that I've done all that I've said means nothin' to me I'd soon as be dead all of this world be forgotten No words of comfort no words of advice nothin' to offer a stranger gone the love, gone the spite it just doesn't matter no longer My sky's getting far the ground's gettin' close my self goin' crazy the way that it does I'll lie on my pillow and sleep if I must Too late to wish I'd been stronger too late to wish I'd been stronger ----------------------------------------------------- Submitted by John Kearney ----------------------------------------------------- I've been playing this song real regular since Jan. 1. I do it a bit different from what Robert has posted, so here goes: capo 2nd fret, chords shown are as if no capo was used. ie: Am = Bm, C = D, etc. A Song For Townes Van Zandt

The right way is what works for you. ;-) Townes wrote a lot of songs. I think he wrote this one for himself. Thanks Townes... jk #--------------------------------------------------------------#
