No News From North

G                 D
Endless days and nights alone
C                       G
A free trade zone with the curtains drawn
G                       D                           C
And I’m a drunken mess winning bets on never seeing Boston again
G                           D
I’m tired as hell about this off and on
C                       G
And back and forth and home, then gone
G                      D               C
And if I’m wrong then damn it, condemn me now, please


[Bridge]

D             C
              Cause I can’t breathe…
G           D         C
without you  Without you
G           D        C
Without you… without you

[Verse 2]

G                              D
That track was long and that train was fast
C                              G
And I stopped thinking back in Halifax
G                       D               C
And now I know that, I’ll never drink alone with you again
G                              D
I touched my feet to sand and pavement salt
C                      G
Called the Midwest my home this fall
G                      D               C
But it was never home, home’s just a distraction I invent

D               C
               When I can make rent


[Chorus]

G                   D                                C
I’ll cover the cost of a flight for you to stay one night [2x]


[Verse 3]

G                              D        C                     G
Been tracing steps from months to years on stolen rides of tariff steel
G                       D                           C
Robbed the World Bank one of an affinity group or two
G                           D
Now my shade tree’s gone and my dried leave bed
C                       G
Is level grade for a parking deck
G                      D               C
And my key chain’s as empty as my mood

D               C
               God damn, I still can’t move


[Chorus]

G                   D                                C
I’ll cover the cost of a flight for you to stay one night [4x]
