Nashville

[Intro] Em  G  D  Em
        Em  G  D  Em

Em                  G
Packed up my piano, and a suitcase full of clothes
D                                         Em
And went looking for some better place to hide
Em                      G
Ride across the border, in a broken down Sedan
D                               Em
With a bottle and a rifle on my mind

Em                          G
On and on and on and on the miles stretch for hours
D                                Em
The radio keeps spitting out the tune
Em                       G
Every other song is just another tired rhythm
D                     Em
Another tired lovers tune

C                           G
It's a long long way back to Nashville
D                        Em
Where I come from, where I've been
C                           G
It's a long long way back to Nashville
D                            Em
But I promise I will see you again

( Em  G  D  Em )

Em                                       G
Through the ice and fog this morning the sun is coming up
D                                    Em
I'm standing on the shores of the Hudson bay
Em                       G
Over glass fired violet, silence, silence
D              Em
Calling up the day

Em                  G
And every man is an island, an island
D                  Em
In his own special way
Em                               G
There's a white ghost out on the water, the water
D                                     Em
With one good song and nothing else to say

C                            G
It's a long long way back to Nashville
D                        Em
Where I come from, where I've been
C                            G
It's a long long way back to Nashville
D                            D11
But I promise I will see you again

In heaven
