Missing Pieces

G                     C9     G
I sit all day staring at a leaf.
 Em                 D           C
I know that my time here is brief.
Am               C/B         D
I'd like to get some details down.
C                            G
Before I move on to another town.

G               C9       G
I met a man he lost both arms.
Em                   D     C
He got 'em caught up in her charms.
Am                C/B     D
She took the kids and the color TV.
He said, "I wish she'd taken the 
 C       G
rest of me."

(CHORUS)
G                           C9   
This travelin' life well it ain't
     G
 no good.

Em                   D     C
I'd quit it honey oh if I could.
Am                    C/B D
A puzzle to me why I even care.
                       C     G
The missing pieces are everywhere.

G                     C9      G
He drove to Dixie to hush his mouth.
Em                          D    
She started talking like to wore 
    C
him out.
Am                           C/B  
They found love beneath the southern
D
 stars.
                     C    G
And some bruises and some scars.

G                  C9       
He sees her on that back porch 
   G
swing.
Em                        D  C
And I believe he would do any-thing.
Am                     C/B      D
Stand all night in the pourin' rain.
                    C         G
To wash her memory from his brain.

D PEAT CHORUS

G                   C9        G
A false move here, a stumble there.
Em                     D        C
A box of letters and a lock of hair.
Am                             
That's all that's left when I 
C/B         D
turn out the light.
                           C    
I count the missing pieces every 
 G
night.
