Intro: G x2
Verse:
G
The only time I got to praying for a red light
G
Was when I saw your destination as a deadline
Am
This is normal conversation Babe, itʼs all fine
Am
Iʼm making quiet calculations where the fault lies
C
This is good land, or at least it was
CG
It takes a strong hand and a sou--nd mind
G
The college kids are getting so young, ainʼt they?
G
Theyʼre correcting all the grammar on a spray paint
Am
And I even gave up driving after nightfall
Am
I got tired of the frat boys with their brights on
C
This is good land, or at least it was
CG
It takes a strong hand and a sou--nd mind
GAm
It makes me smile to know when things get ha-rd ooh
C
Youʼll be fa-r ooh
C
Youʼll be fa-r from her?
GAm
That while I clean **** up in the yard ooh
C
Youʼll be far ooh
C
Youʼll be far, far from here
Pre-chorus:
CG
So pack up your car, put a hand on your heart
Am
Say whatever you feel, be wherever you are
Chorus:
CG
We ainʼt angry at you love
Am
Youʼre the greatest thing weʼve lost
C
The birds will still sing
G
Your folks will still fight
Am
The boards will still creak
The leaves will still die
CG
We ainʼt angry at you love
Am
Weʼll be waiting for you love
CGAm
And weʼll all be here forever...
CGAm
And weʼll all be here forever...
Am
We sure will

Verse:
GAm
Weʼre overdue for a revival
CC
Spent so long just getting by
GAm
Thatʼs the thing about survival
CC
Who the hell, who the hell likes livinʼ just to die?
GAm
You told me you would make a difference
CC
Well, I got drunk and shut yo--u down
GAm
It wonʼt be by your own volition
CC
If you step foot outside this town
AmC
But itʼs all weʼve have
D7
For always
