The One That Lives Too Far

C  C/B  Am  Dm  F  C


[Verse 1]

C           C/B             Am   
  I haven’t told myself the truth
 F                              
  since the first night you were 
 C  G
gone
C             C/B                
  I’d like to think I was living 
Am        Dm              F     
easy, and love was mostly living
       C
 all alone
C                C/B             
  Maybe it’s the wind blowing us 
   Am    F                   
together, maybe it’s the world 
               C  G
blowing me away
C                C/B         
  Maybe the tall trees bow down 
      Am     Dm              
before us pleading for a lonely 
F                C
heart to stay


        [Chorus]

        F                          
        Truth be told, the odds are
           C
 stacked against us
        E7                       
        Truth be told, they often 
        Am
always are

        F                          
        Unless you really care 
      C               C/B
about me, don’t go up the stairs 
without
            Am               E7   
        The boy that let you drive
             Am     G       F
 him in your mama’s beat up car
            G                   
        And don’t forget the one 
                C
that lives too far

[Verse 2]

C                  C/B            
  Some folks make something out of
 Am      F                        
 nothing, some people have to cry 
    C  G
too long
C              C/B             
  While others wait beside the 
Am     Dm                F      
window wondering why the wind 
         C
would blow so strong
      C               C/B         
  Now I’ll admit I’m feeling cold 
    Am    F                       
and naked, just like I’m standing 
       C  G
in the rain
C              C/B              
  With nothing left out here to 
Am           Dm           F     
hide behind, and I wonder if you
          C
 feel the same


        [Chorus]

        F                          
        Truth be told, the odds are
           C
 stacked against us
        E7                       
        Truth be told, they often 
        Am
always are
        F                          
        Unless you really care 
      C               C/B
about me, don’t go up the stairs 
without
            Am               E7   
        The boy that let you drive
             Am     G       F
 him in your mama’s beat up car
            G                   
        And don’t forget the one 
                C
that lives too far
