[Verse 1]
G Gsus2 G Gsus2
Late October, in a rut
G Gsus2 D G
Leaves came down when the wind picked up
G Gsus2 G Gsus2
Seems to happen every fall
G Gsus2 D G
The wind picks up and takes 'em all
C G D G Gsus2 G
The wind picks up and takes 'em all

[Verse 2]
G Gsus2 G Gsus2
On the 29th, I set the time
G Gsus2 D G
Back an hour, drank some wine
G Gsus2 G Gsus2
Stayed up late, woke up early
G Gsus2 D G
With my head so full of worry
C G D G Gsus2 G
With my head so full of worry

[Chorus]
Em C G
Ooh, you stay away from me
Em G
I've seen what you can do
Em C G
I play for money, but I sing for free
G D G
My New Scotland Blues
Em C D G Gsus2 G
Ooo oo oo oo oo oo Ooo oo

[Verse 3]
G Gsus2 G Gsus2
True regrets, I've had a few
G Gsus2 D G
But I know I've had my way too
G Gsus2 G Gsus2
In my back pocket, walkin' round
G Gsus2 D G
True regrets, they can be found
C G D G Gsus2 G
My true regrets, they travel town

[Verse 4]
G Gsus2 G Gsus2
Always walking on a wire
G Gsus2 D G
Now I'm worn out, now I'm tired
G Gsus2 G Gsus2
I'm tired of the push, tired of the shove
G Gsus2 D G
I'm tired of the fight and I'm tired of the love
C G D G Gsus2 G
If I sound cold put on some gloves

[Chorus]
Em C G
Ooh, you stay away from me
Em G
I've seen what you can do
Em C G
I play for money, but I sing for free
G D G
My New Scotland Blues
Em C D G Gsus2 G
Ooo oo oo oo oo oo Ooo oo

[Verse 5]
G Gsus2 G Gsus2
Are you ready, are you not?
G Gsus2 D G
You can't hide the things you thought
G Gsus2 G Gsus2
Tryin' so hard not to blink
G Gsus2 D G
I think I've had too much to drink
C G D G Gsus2 G
Now I can't hide the things I think

[Chorus]
Em C G
Ooh, you stay away from me
Em G
You don't have a clue
Em C G
Ain't nobody gonna change the key
G D G
Of my New Scotland Blues
Em C G
Ooh, you get away from me
Em G
I've seen what you can do
Em C G
I play for money, but I sing for free
G D G
My New Scotland Blues
G D G
My New Scotland Blues
Em C D G Gsus2 G
Ooo oo oo oo oo oo Ooo oo

[Outro]
G Gsus2 G Gsus2
In the basement singin' songs
G Gsus2 D G
Hear the furnace turnin' on
G Gsus2 G Gsus2
Press record and then rewind
G Gsus2 D G
Listen back to another time
C G D G
Remind myself what was on my mind
C G D G
It sounds like I had too much wine
