Key of Gb, messy but chord progressions are correct
B Bbm
Hey brother
Ebm
get yourself together
Abm B
Don't you wait
B Bbm
Can't you see
Ebm
I'm waiting in the shadows
Abm B
to take your place
Abm
There is a chance
Bbm B
that I'd keep trying
Ebm
to tell you the truth,
E B
would end up lying to you
CHORUS
Gb Db
You said you were late
Bbm B
and I planned my escape
Gb Db
Such a happy thing
Bbm B
just another one of my mistakes
Gb Db
So you held your breathe
Bbm B
and you cursed the west
Gb Db
said you had no choice
Bbm B
You're moving back east where men are men
Your mother
never found a reason
to hesitate
Now your waiting
For a warmer welcome
in coldest days
CHORUS
Ebm
Love's got no border
Db
why don't you feel free
Bbm
to cross my state line
B Bbm Ebm
and bring yourself to me?
Ebm
It's a hell of a struggle
Db
Been grounded for years
Bbm
Words that I use up to
B
oh for lonely ears
CHORUS
