Gulf Road

                      E         
  Not a hot cup of coffee, nor a 
               C#m
cold glass of tea
       A                       
  Ever crossed your lips, in my 
      E
company
  E                                
  Straight bourbon whiskey, was all
      C#m
 we'd abide
                            A  
  So let's don't hold back, now 
                       E
we've got nothing to hide


[Verse]
               E                   
  So much we savored yet so much we
 C#m
 missed
           A                       
  You know I never meant you to see
         E
 me like this
                       E           
  Just a faint distant flicker, 
                  C#m
from the last of the storm
             A                     
  You know a taste of that liquor, 
               E
could do me no harm

[Chorus]
             C#m    A           E
  Light me a candle, light me a fire
                  B                
  Come sit by the window, with the 
 A     E
shades drawn
                    C#m            
  To the best of intentions, and 
  A         E
the worst of desires
                     B             
  We'll leave by the Gulf Road, in 
    A    E
the gray dawn


[Verse]
                       E           
  Take a short handled shovel, take
                C#m
 a long handled hoe
     A                             
  Cover my bones when the west wind
 E
 blows
                E                  
  Smooth it off even, pack it down 
C#m
hard
                  A             
  I'll no more be here, but I'll 
          E
never be far
                  A             
  I'll no more be here, but I'll 
          E
never be far


[Chorus]
             C#m    A           E
  Light me a candle, light me a fire
                  B                
  Come sit by the window, with the 
 A     E
shades drawn
                    C#m            
  To the best of intentions, and 
  A         E
the worst of desires
                     B             
  We'll leave by the Gulf Road, in 
    A    E
the gray dawn
