Capo: 1st fret

[Intro]
G D Am   Cmaj
 
(Verse)
G                   D
I remember all them summers
Am                       Cmaj
Playing ‘till my fingers bled
G                             D
You’d sing songs and I’d sing with you
Am                       Cmaj
We’d get drunk and go to bed
G                        D
Looking back at all them memories
Am                    Cmaj
Lord I hate to sleep alone
G                       D
But if you ever get the notion
Am                      Cmaj
That you need me let me know
 
 
(Chorus)
G
It’s just two hours to get there babe
D
I can make it back in ‘bout an hour or so
Am
Hold you close against my skin
Cmaj
I need a little warmth so I’m not so cold
G
Singing songs we used to sing
D
The one about the lady in the long black veil
Am
Should have seen the warning signs
Cmaj
Lord I love to hear you wail
G
High and lonesome, hard and strong
D
Even if it was a little out of tune
Am
Harder then socks on the Jersey Giant
Cmaj
Lord I thought you hung the moon
 
G D Am   Cmaj
 
(Verse)
G                   D
I remember all them winners
Am                        Cmaj
Drinking woodfur ‘till we drown
G                     D
We would end up at a party
Am                  Cmaj
Bundle up and go to town
G                       D
Never worry ‘bout the po-lice
Am                    Cmaj
Never worried much at all
G                               D
I miss those nights of reckless glory
Am                          Cmaj
I’d come back if you’d just call
 
(Chorus)
G
It’s just two hours to get there babe
D
I can make it back in ‘bout an hour or so
Am
Hold you close against my skin
Cmaj
I need a little warmth so I’m not so cold
G
Singing songs we used to sing
D
The one about the lady in the long black veil
Am
Should have seen the warning signs
Cmaj
Lord I love to hear you wail
G
High and lonesome, hard and strong
D
Even if it was a little out of tune
Am
Harder then socks on the Jersey Giant
Cmaj
Lord I thought you hung the moon
 
 
G D Am   Cmaj

(Verse)
Am
I left town when we were over
 
Cause it didn’t feel the same
 
Every backroad held a memory
 
And every memory held your name
 
 
(Chorus)
G
It’s just two hours to get there babe
D
I can make it back in ‘bout an hour or so
Am
Hold you close against my skin
Cmaj
I need a little warmth so I’m not so cold

G
              I remember all them summers
Playing ’til my fingers bled
You’d sing the songs and I’d sing with you
We’d get drunk and go to bed

Looking back at all them memories
Lord, I hate to sleep alone
But if you ever get the notion
That you need me, let me know

‘Cause it’s just two hours to get there, babe
I can make it back about an hour or so
Hold you close against my skin
I need a little warmth on a night so cold
Singing songs you used to sing
The one about the lady in the long black veil
Should have seen the warnings signs
But Lord, I love to hear you wail
High and lonesome, hard and strong
Even if it was a little out of tune
Hotter than socks on a jersey giant
Lord, I thought you hung the moon

I remember all them winters
Drinking Woodford ’til we drowned
We’d get wind about a party
Bundle up and go to town

Never worry ’bout the police
Never worried much at all
I miss those nights of reckless glory
I’d come back if you just called

‘Cause it’s just two hours to get there, babe
I can make it back about an hour or so
Hold you close against my skin
I need a little warmth on a night so cold
Singing songs you used to sing
The one about the lady in the long black veil
Should have seen the warnings signs
But Lord, I love to hear you wail
High and lonesome, hard and strong
Even if it was a little out of tune
Hotter than socks on a jersey giant
Lord, I thought you hung the moon

I left town when we were over
‘Cause it didn’t feel the same
Every backroad had a memory
And every memory held your name

‘Cause it’s just two hours to get there, babe
I can make it back about an hour or so
Hold you close against my skin
I need a little warmth on a night so cold
Singing songs you used to sing
The one about the lady in the long black veil
Should have seen the warnings signs
But Lord, I love to hear you wail
High and lonesome, hard and strong
Even if it was a little out of tune
Hotter than socks on a jersey giant
Lord, I thought you hung the moon
