[VERSE1]
C           G         D
 I haven't seen Your face
C           G          D
 In such a long, long time
C         G              D      
 We were wondering when You 
           | Em G |
might come around

[VERSE2]
C        G         D
 Was it all about money?
C         G          D
 Was it just about time?
   C        G         D          
But We realized just what You're 
      | Em G |
all about

[CHORUS]
C            D                  C
 You're all about starving the fever
     D          Em               
And feeding the cold, With Your 
D       G
bird in hand
           C                  D
You say it keeps You down to earth

| C G D D |
| C G D D |

[VERSE3]
         C             G      
Well the morning is a long time 
   D
coming
Continues after the ad
       C              G         D
And You can see it as plain as day
         C         G      D      
Was it a hard comedown or are You
          Em
 back for more?

[VERSE4]
        C        G           D
And the winter wheat's been growing
        C       G         D
Tell Me do You miss that child ?
              C         G       D
You know She's getting tall, I 
          | Em |
saw Her yesterday

[CHORUS]
C            D                  C
 You're all about starving the fever
     D          Em
And feeding the cold
          D       G
With Your gun in hand
            C                    D
You say it keeps Your children warm

[BRIDGE]
Bm               C              G
 And I'm getting old before My time
Bm                 C             
 Looking for what little truth 
    | D D D Em |
there is..

to find
  | C G D D |
  | C G D D |
  | C G D D |
  | Em |

  | C  D | C  D |
  | C  D | Em   |

[VERSE4]
C                G         
 Now feel those river fingers 
    D
gripping
         C                  D
All the life that's left inside
             C
Don't try to tell Me that You've 
changed
      D              Em
Your story's getting old

[VERSE5]
             C             
There's the Simon Silk Mill 
  D
breathing
              C                 D
Breathing Her songs into the air
       C                      
I feel bad for You now, You've 
  D               Em
missed out on so much
       C                      
I feel bad for You now, You've 
  D               Em
missed out on so much

[CHORUS]
C            D                  C
 You're all about starving the fever
     D          Em              D
And feeding the cold, With Your 
        G
bird in hand
            C                 D
You say it keeps You down to earth, 
Down to earth..yeah..yeah

C            D                  C
 You're all about starving the fever
     D          Em              D
And feeding the cold, With Your 
      G
gun in hand
            C                      
You say it keeps Your children warm,
D
 Your children warm

C                  D
 It won't get any better
C                  D | C Bm | Em 
 It won't get any better
Em Em D |


C                  D
