Tift Merritt - All The Reasons We Don't Have To Fight
CAPO: 1st Fret
INTRO: G Am C (3x) G
N.C. Am D
We used to sleep real late
G
Play our records loud
Am D
Times we were broke
G
We'd laugh about it
Am D
Sometimes we'd just leave town
G
Go down to the shore
Am
Watch the waves close out
C G
Just to be close, to be close
CHORUS:
Dm7
I don't wanna fight anymore
C G
'Bout what we lost or things we swore
Dm7 C G
I didn't mean what I said last night
Dm7
I love you more than who is right and wrong
C G
I wanna stay and I make this song
Dm7 C
Of all the reasons we don't have to fight
G
I don't wanna fight
INTERLUDE: Am G Am G Am G
N.C. Am D
These words we shout
G
Well, who's to say
Am D
Where they will go
G
When they fall away?
Am D
Maybe they hang around
G
With the lonely kids
Am
With a balled up fist
C G
Saying, "You did this, you did this"
CHORUS:
Dm7
I don't wanna fight anymore
C G
'Bout what we lost or things we swore
Dm7 C G
I didn't mean what I said last night
Dm7
I love you more than who is right and wrong
C G
I'm gonna stay and I make this song
Dm7 C
Of all the reasons we don't have to fight
G
I don't wanna fight
INSTRUMENTAL: G Am C G
N.C. Am D
The morning light
G
Goes red to grey
Am D
On what we've broken
G
And throw away
Am D
If I could I just know how
G
To walk away from my pride
Am
Could you help me out?
C G
Can we put it back, put it back?
CHORUS:
Dm7
I don't wanna fight anymore
C G
I don't even know what it started for
Dm7 C G
I didn't mean what I said last night
Dm7
I love you more than who is right and wrong
C G
I stayed up late and I made this song
Dm7 C
Of all the reasons we don't have to fight
G
I don't wanna fight
