[G]
[F] I [A] see your face, I close my eyes, I [G] hear your name, the [F] wind's just right, [A] the setting sun,
gone once more, [G] these nights worse than [F] the night [E] before, [A] I can't stand to leave you,
I can't take weight, there's one on [G] my heart, [F] and [A] I don't know what I'll do, I think I could
make it all go, [G]
[F] [A]
[D] [G] [G] [F]
[A] they say all could heal with time, [G] that don't mean much to me [F] now, [A] like
city streets, you won't rise shine, [G] I'm lost out here, [F] I'm a losing kind, [A] no I can't stand
to leave you, I can't take weight, [G] there's one on my heart, [F]
and I [A] don't know what I'll
do, I think I could make it [G] all go,
[F] [A] yes I felt [F] this kind of pain, [E] a hole [G] straight through
my [F] chest, [G] yes I felt this kind [F] of pain, [E]
seems now [G] it's all that's [F] left,
[E] it's all [G] that's
left, [F] not far away, [A] seems now it's [G] all [F] that's left, [A] [G]
[F] [E]
[G] [F] [F] [A]
[G] [G] [F]
[A] every song I hear, your voice sings,
the [G] words are clear, back [F] to me, [A] back to me, I'm all in one, [G] hold me close, [F] the work's done,
[A] no I can't stand to leave you, I can't take [Em] weight, there's one [G] on my heart,
[F] [A] and I don't
know what I'll do, I think I could make it [G] all go, [F] no I [A] can't stand to leave you, I can't
take weight, there's [G] one on my heart, [F]
[A] and I don't know what I'll do, I think I could make
[G] it all go.

[F] [D]
[G]
[E] I am going to do their songs anyways [Abm] though, because they're just too fucking good not to do.
[Ab] Um, alright so, [D] I did Joey's song last year, this year I learned a [G] song by this guy named John
Moreland, he's got a record coming out, yeah [C] he's from Oklahoma, [D] and this [Eb] one's called [F] God's
Medicine, it's on John Moreland's new record, it should be on iTunes and [C] shit here, [D] so [Gm] hopefully
I don't fuck it up too [G] bad.
Quite possibly.
[A]
[D] [Bb]
Alright I'll give it a shot.
[C]
I guess by now, [F] I'm supposed to be a man, [B] [C] said [F] I'd find some [C] kind of freedom, I forgot I had [G] a
place to stay, my [Am] grandmother still [G] gives me [F] ten bucks on my [C] birthday, she told [G] me sleep is God's
[F] medicine, and you're gonna die [C] someday, so [B] I'll take all your [C] terror, [Am] surrender to the truth,
[Am] there's times like [G] these I forget why I quit [F] loving you,
[C] I recall when I thought I [Am] had a plan,
[C]
[F] the sun, [C] moon, stars, slinging stuck [G] right through my hands, but [Am] remember that failure [F] is part of
being alive, [Am] I guess I let [G] it take away [F] my pride, [G] one too many [C] times, [Am] I [B] know you're gonna leave me,
there's nothing [C] I can do, [Am] there's times like these I [G] forget why I [F] quit loving you,
[Am] [G] [C] [F]
[Am] [G]
[F]
so I'll [B] take all your
[C] terror, surrender [A] to the [C] truth, there's [Am] times like [G] these I forget why I quit [F] loving you, and I don't know what
[C] I'm doing, hell [B] I don't have a [C] clue, there's [Am] times like [G] these I forget why I quit [F] loving you, [A] I forget why I [C] quit.
[G] John Morland.
[N] Yeah, no
