Mistress Named Music - Eric Church
This is my favourite song of Erich Church's new album, I quickly figured out the chords,
they seem right for the most part, Feel free to correct if needed! Everytime there is a C play it
as a Cadd9 sounds better.
Capo 3

[Verse 1]
C
I still remember Miss Bessie singing
D
Black, wrinkled fingers on ivory keys
C D
Just five years old, my church shoes a-dangling
C G C
Yeah, she's long gone and I'm still chasing this song
[Chorus]
G D G D
With a guitar full of freedom and a head full of lines
G D Em D
That nightlife full of demons has been a hell of a ride
D G Cadd9 G
I got a crazy heart, but I was born to lose it
D G Em D
Married to a dream with a mistress named music
[Verse 2]
C
No hope and squarely solitary
D
Enough whiskey and Coke, boys, to get me in a bind
C D
Amps juiced, the whole damn block could hear me
C
Even that cop car rolling past
G
By the time they hit the front door
D
I was out the back
[Chorus]
G D G D
With a guitar full of freedom and a head full of lines
G D Em D
That nightlife full of demons has been a hell of a ride
D G Cadd9 G
I got a crazy heart, but I was born to lose it
D G Em D
Married to a dream with a mistress named music
(na na na...............)
D Cadd9 G D D Cadd9 Em D
[Verse 3]
C
White calloused fingers on bronze and nylon
C D
These same old boots are still tapping time
C D
Not quite the buzz I used to tie on
C G
But 'til I'm gone, I'll be chasing this song
[Chorus]
G D G D
With a guitar full of freedom and a head full of lines
G D Em D
That nightlife full of demons has been a hell of a ride
D G Cadd9 G
I got a crazy heart, but I was born to lose it
D G Em D
Married to a dream with a mistress named music
