16 Carriages

[Intro] C

[Estribillo]

 G
Sixteen carriages drivin' away
       G
While I watch them ride with my 
dreams away
      C
To the summer sunset on a holy night
      C
On a long back road, all the tears I
 fight

 G

dreams away

 fight

[Primera Parte]

     G
At fifteen, the innocence was gone 
astray
      G
Had to leave my home at an early age
     C
I saw Mama prayin', I saw Daddy 
grind
      C
All my tender problems, had to leave
 behind

[Pre-Estribillo]

         G
It's been umpteen summers, and I'm 
not in my bed
       G
On the back of the bus in a bunk 
with the band
G
Goin' so hard, gotta choose myself
G
Undеrpaid and overwhelmed
   C
I might cook, clеan, but still won't
 fold
 C
Still workin' all my life, you know
            C
Only God knows, only God knows
               C
Only God knows

[Segunda Parte]

  G
Sixteen dollars, workin' all day
         G
Ain't got time to waste, I got art 
to make
     C
I got love to create on this holy 
night
          C
They won't dim my light, all these 
years I fight

It's been thirty-eight summers, and 
I'm not in my bed

Goin' so hard, now I miss my kids

Only God knows, only God knows

[Puente]

    G
At fifteen, the innocence was gone 
astray
      G
Had to take care of home at an early
 age
     C
I saw Mama cryin', I saw Daddy lyin'
      C
Had to sacrifice and leave my fears 
behind
          Am
The legacy, if it's the last thing I
 do
          F
You'll remember me 'cause we got 
somethin' to prove
        F            Em
In your memory, on a highway to 
truth
  G                                
Still see your faces when you close
      C
 your eyes
