Intro

GDAmC

Verse 1

GI remember all them Dsummers

AmPlaying ’til my fingers Cbled

GYou’d sing the songsD and I’d sing with you

AmWe’d get drunk and go toC bed

GLooking back at all Dthem memories

AmLord, I hate to sleep aloCne

GBut if you ever get Dthe notion

AmThat you need me, let me Cknow

Chorus

G‘Cause it’s just two hours to get there, babe

DI can make it back about an hour or so

AmHold you close against my skin

CI need a little warmth on a night so cold

GSinging songs you used to sing

DThe one about the lady in the long black veil

AmShould have seen the warnings signs

CBut Lord, I love to hear you well

GHigh and lonesome, hard and strong

DEven if it was a little out of tune

AmHotter than socks on a jersey giant

CLord, I thought you hung the moon

Interlude

AmDrinking Woodford ’til weC drowned

GWe’d get wind about a Dparty

AmBundle up and go to townC

GNever worry ’bout theD police

AmNever worried much at alCl

GI miss those nights Dof reckless glory

AmI’d come back if you’d Cjust call
