Em7 022033 At times, only a single bass note is played between chord changes. There's places in the song where the chords transition quickly (ie the Em7 D Cadd9 found in the second half of most verses) -- here you can play the chord or just the bass note D, either will work. The chords found in the intro are a little more "crunchy" and seem to be played without thirds. Cadd9 becomes x3x033, G becomes 3x0033, D becomes xx023x if you choose to play them this way. [Intro]
Cadd9 G D
Cadd9 G D [Verse 1]
Cadd9 G Looking back down the road from a little ways out
D Em7 I never had a fear and I never had a doubt
Cadd9 G D If it had a lick of sense I'd have figured that out pretty fast
Cadd9 G But I wadn't any smarter than the average kid
D Em7 Somebody mighta noticed, but I never did
Cadd9 G D I never saw the future fading right into the past
Cadd9 D Talking to the wallpaper, wandering the halls
Em7 D Cadd9 I burned a lot of bridges and I dropped a lot of balls
Cadd9 G D It's a wonder I can ever go back to any place I've been
Cadd9 D But I wouldn't get down on my knees on a bet
Em7 D Cadd9 I'm near enough to Jesus as I'd ever want to get
Cadd9 G D Seeking salvation ain't part of my general plan [Chorus]
Cadd9 G Save your prayers for yourself
D Em7 Raise my glass to your health
Cadd9 G D I don't mind if you don't look like me
Cadd9 G I can share my bread and wine
D Em7 I come from another time
Cadd9 G D It don't matter all that much if it don't bleed
Cadd9 If it don't bleed [Fill 1]
Cadd9 G D [Verse 2]
Cadd9 G Now it's all I can do to just get out of bed
D Em7 D There's more in the mirror than there is up ahead
Cadd9 G D I smile and I nod like I heard what you said every time
Cadd9 D5 So run another rack, pour another shot
Em7 D Cadd9 You don't get it back so give it all you got
Cadd9 G D While you still got a more or less functional body and mind [Chorus]
Cadd9 G Save your prayers for yourself
D Em7 Raise my glass to your health
Cadd9 G D I don't mind if you don't look like me
Cadd9 G I can share my bread and wine
D Em7 I come from another time
Cadd9 G D It don't matter all that much if it don't bleed
Cadd9 If it don't bleed [Solo]
Cadd9 G D
Cadd9 G Em7 D
Cadd9 G D Em7
Cadd9 G D [Verse 3]
Cadd9 G I learned to answer my calls and open my mail
D Em7 D I paid my taxes and I stayed out of jail
Cadd9 G You stay in the game when you're too broke to fail
D That's a fact
Cadd9 D Talking to the wallpaper sleeping in the hall
Em7 D Cadd9 Your bones get brittle so you better not fall
Cadd9 You slow to a crawl
G D Time gets to balling the jack
D Run you right off the track [Chorus]
Cadd9 G Save your prayers for yourself
D Em7 Raise my glass to your health
Cadd9 G D I don't mind if it don't talk like me
Cadd9 G I can share my bread and wine
D Em7 I come from another time
Cadd9 G D It don't matter all that much if it don't bleed
Cadd9 If it don't bleed [Otro]
Cadd9 G D If it don't bleed
Cadd9 G Em7 D If it don't bleed
Cadd9 G D If it don't bleed
Cadd9 If it don't bleed
Cadd9 B* Cadd9 B* Cadd9 B* Cadd9 B* Cadd9
