Oh you shouldn't fall inside the hole with your old girl

Repeat intro
Verse 2:
C (riff) Am F
And the damned daylight is slow when you're worrying how long it'll be 'til you go.
C (riff) Am F G
Outside the garbage is piled up way too high,
F G Am
I wouldn't blame you if you leave
F G C (riff)
It's not the way your world's supposed to be.
Bridge:
F C
And when the coals are on your seat and
G C
it's taking all of me
F C
To breathe

I tell you run but you stay right here.

Verse 3:
F C
Just like the taste behind my teeth
G C
and like the bullet in my knee
F C
You keep me, darlin' you keep me
G C
from up and sinking in the sand.
F C
And like the buzzing of a lamp
G Am
And like the aching in my aching hands
F C
You are the constant in my constant
G C
You are the salty air in my sail
G C G C G C G
Sail sail sail...
F G C
You are the salty air in my sail.
This is a pretty simple straight forward song.
Theres a few live/solo versions where she has the capo on the 4th fret (fyi).
I hope this is helpful
