The Same

Intro:
G – C – G – C – G – G - D

G                               C
Something about the way you told me
   G                        C
reminded me of a different story
  G                             
about the last good one that got 
                    D
away.
G                           C
She got upset and grabbed a knife,
G                   C
forcing me to step outside
    G                           
of everything I had known before 
                      D
today.
                   C               
Why does it always end up, no 
                       G           
matter what you get, its not 
             D
enough?

G                   C
Same line in a different song,
G                                 C
same verse so you can sing along.
       Am
You can't get out the stains if the 
blood comes from your veins.
G                         C
Same prayer in a different church,
G                             C
same old wound cuz it still hurts.
    Am                             
If everything has changed, then why
 do I feel the same?

  G                               C
I left that scene buried underground
       G                           
and became the man I always thought
                            D
 I'd be….
G                     C
Playing on the tallest stages,
      G                          C
the wine, the women, and the wages…
      G                        
But even with all of that I was 
              D
lonely.
                   C               
Why does it always end up…no matter
                        G          
 what you get, its not enough?

G                     C
A rainy day outside of Memphis.
   G                        C
A hangover and a shady witness.
       G                           
The Delta Blues were singing to the
                   D
 Lord.
           G                     C
I said, "Jesus, can you rescue me?
      G                            
I've had too much wine and I cannot

  G
