G Am
I can’t sleep a wink any longer

And tobacco signs are like chains on a river
G Am

G Am
Flashing and the crackling of the timber
C G
It’s one more down and the hole’s getting bigger
G Am
Looking like its raining in the rafters
C G
And I’ve never seen that live oak up so close
Am C
But I’m seeing things I never thought I’d see
Em F
And I’ve got her to thank for showing me
[Chorus]
G D
Seventeen years more
Em D C
And from what they say it’s only getting worse
C D
Chewed me up and spit me out
G C Am C
Another season will surely be the end of this town

G Am
Hush up now Katie, don’t you cry no more
C G
Because those winds will scratch and steal and maim a man
G Am
You don’t want to know what lies behind that door
C G
'cause there's things out there you’ll never understand
Am C
But I’m seeing things I never thought I’d see
Em F
And I’ve got her to thank for showing me
[Chorus]
