Capo: 3rd fret
[Intro]
G D Am G/B Cadd9
[Verse 1]
G D
I remember all them summers
Am G/B Cadd9
Playing 'til my fingers bled
G D
You'd sing the songs and I'd sing with ya
Am G/B Cadd9
We'd get drunk and go to bed
G D
Looking back at all them memories
Am Cadd9
Lord, I hate to sleep alone
G D
But if you ever get the notion
Am G/B Cadd9
That you need me, let me know
[Chorus]
G
'Cause it's just two hours to get there, babe
D
I can make it back about an hour or so
Am G/B
Hold you close against my skin
Cadd9
I need a little warmth on a night so cold
G
Singing songs you used to sing
D
The one about the lady in the long, black veil
Am G/B
Should've seen the warnings signs
Cadd9
But I loved to hear you wail
G
High and lonesomе, hard and strong
D
Even if it was a little out of tune
Am G/B
Hottеr than socks on a Jersey Giant
Cadd9 G D Am G/B
Lord, I thought you hung the moon
Cadd9
Lord, I thought you hung the moon
[Verse 2]
G D
I remember all them winters
Am G/B Cadd9
Drinking Woodford 'til we drowned
G D
We'd get wind about a party
Am G/B Cadd9
Bundle up and go to town
G D
Never worry about the police
Am G/B Cadd9
Never worried much at all
G D
I miss those nights of reckless glory
Am G/B Cadd9
And I'd come back if you'd just call
[Chorus]
G
'Cause it's just two hours to get there, babe
D
I can make it back about an hour or so
Am G/B
Hold you close against my skin
Cadd9
I need a little warmth on a night so cold
G
Singing songs you used to sing
D
The one about the lady in the long, black veil
Am G/B
Should've seen the warnings signs
Cadd9
But I loved to hear you wail
G
High and lonesomе, hard and strong
D
Even if it was a little out of tune
Am G/B
Hottеr than socks on a Jersey Giant
Cadd9
Lord, I thought you hung the moon
[Instrumental]
G D Am G/B Cadd9
[Bridge]
Am G/B Cadd9
I left town when we were over
Am G/B Cadd9
'Cause it didn't feel the same
Am G/B Cadd9
Every backroad had a memory
Am D
And every memory held your name
[Chorus]
G
'Cause it's just two hours to get there, babe
D
I can make it back about an hour or so
Am G/B
Hold you close against my skin
Cadd9
I need a little warmth on a night so cold
G
Singing songs you used to sing

Lord, I thought you hung the moon
Cadd9 G
Lord, I thought you hung the moon

'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
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

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
Lord I thought you hung the moon
