SONG: Stopping By
ARTIST: Jason Isbell & The 400 Unit
ALBUM: Here We Rest
(Drum intro)
C#m A E x2
C#m A E (B)
Driving to a baseball game, on a Friday afternoon
C#m A E E
Hotter than Hell in Atlanta, Georgia
C#m A E (B)
Guess it's been 15 years since I came through here
C#m A E E
Probably should have called to warn you
B A
But I'm stopping by, I'm stopping by, Daddy
(C#m) break 1 measure
C#m A E (B)
How did your life turned out? Do you ever think about
C#m A E E
teenage girl in Chattannoga…
C#m A E (B)
Ever tell your folks the truth?,that might been the last of you
C#m A E E
It would have been a shame we hardly knew you
B A
Now I'm stopping by, I'm stopping by, Daddy
(C#m) break 1 measure
C#m A E E
Think the best of me is still standing in the doorway
C#m A E E
Counting cars and counting days and counting years
C#m A E E
I could say you made me go through life the hard way
B A
It might have been worse if you were here
C#m A E (B)
Looking through a picture book, this one I think my mama took
C#m A E E
You couldn't have been much over 20
C#m A E (B)
You're shirtless in your cut off jeans and hand a lollypop to me
C#m A E E
Probably asked where you got the money
C#m A E (B)
Picture on another page, I recognize my eyes have aged
C#m A E E
I'd been alone for quite a while then
C#m A E (B)
Trying to get a match to burn, waiting on a latch to turn
C#m A E E
I still have difficulty smiling
B A
But I'm stopping by, I'm stopping by, Daddy
(C#m) break 1 measure
C#m A E E
Think the best of me is still standing in the doorway
C#m A E E
Whatever's left is headed south on 85
C#m A E E
Passing families on vacation headed your way
B A
They look so happy and alive, that I'm stopping by, Daddy
Outro: 4 bars of riffing on C#m I think
