[Verse 1]
Bm Em
When you sent me packing down that Green River Valley,
A
I knew that if you couldn't then no one would have me.
Bm
I lost myself drinkin' with those stray dogs in the alleys
A Bm
'til the whikey soaked my bones.
Bm
The night it came on cold,
Bm
blowing off that muddy river.
A
I felt so goddamned old
A
I didn't have the strength to shiver.
G
The moon was swallowed whole
G
and when the sky spit back that sliver
Bm A Bm
I knew I had to go it alone.
[Chorus]
D A
Love is free, so take all you can.
Bm G
Just don't ask me to be the bigger man,
D A
‘cause I'm all spent; yeah, you took all I had.
G Bm
But living the good life made me bad.
[Verse 2]
Bm
Go on, chase that girl; go on, get that money.
A
Go on, break the world; I know you think it's full of honey.
G
Maybe someday I'll look back and think it's funny
Bm A Bm
how you always had to burn it down.
Bm
But right now in the ashes,
Bm
choking on the smoke,
A
I find it hard to grasp
A
this great big cosmic joke.
G
I'm squinting through the tears
G
and years of lies and hope.
Bm A Bm
But I know you ain't comin' back around.
[Chorus]
D A
Love is free, so take all you can.
Bm G
I won't ask you to be the bigger man,
D A
‘cause you're all spent; you gave all you had.
G Bm A Bm
I guess living the good life, brother, made you bad.
[Bridge]
Em Bm
Devil below and God above
F# F#m G Bm
Take all your armies from my blood.
Em Bm
Show me what I'm really made of.
Em G
More than fear? More than love?
[Chorus]
D A
Oh, and set me free! I've done all I can.
Bm G
Just don't ask me to be the bigger man,
D A
‘cause I'm all spent; I gave all I could.
G Bm A Bm
But living the bad life, brother, feels too good.?
