Chords for Hayes Carll - Bye Bye Baby (Live on KEXP)

[E] _ I'm Don Slack, your listener at Swingin' Doors here on KEXP Seattle,
and very happy to have in the studio with me today, Hayes Carl,
who's performing at the Crocodile here in just a couple of hours with Quiet Life opening up the show.
So I'd suggest you get on down there, should be a good one.
Seen him a number of times soloing with the band either way, always a good time.
Well thank you very much for coming by the station today, Hayes.
Thanks for having us.
You betcha, very happy to have you here.
You're joined here by Scott Davis on banjo.
Yeah, this is Scott from Austin, Texas.
He's gonna play guitar and banjo for this deal here.
Excellent.
And tonight I believe you're playing with a full band?
Yeah, we'll have a five-piece tonight.
Yeah, you've got the full-on electric band tonight.
We're gonna do something a little more intimate and acoustic right now.
Well if you guys are ready, how about a song?
Alright.
_ [Am] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [A] You laughed and called me lucky for having you around
And you stepped up to the bar and [D] started _
[A] swaying
The crowd all sang Ophelia as we [D] drank [A] another round
Oh bye, bye, [D] bye, [A] bye baby
The _ _ _ _ _ rains fell on the window [D] as we watched the [A] sailors dance
And you kissed my hand and said you were [D] beside [A] me
I held on to the moment when I [D] thought there [A] was a chance
Oh bye, [D] bye, [A] bye, bye baby _
_ _ [E] Way out in the distance [D] where the waters [A] fade to blue
[E] You used to say [A] tomorrow [D] was a foolish [A] thing to do
[F#m] I thought I'd seen it all [D] before but nothing [A] quite like you
Oh bye, [D] bye, bye, [A] bye _ baby _ _ _ _ _
I'd read to you the letters [D] that had blown in [A] from the west
And we'd whisper of the dreams [D] we'd been [A] saving
And you said you'd have it all, [D] nothing more and [A] nothing less
Oh bye, bye, [D] bye, [A] bye baby _
_ _ [E] Now there's [A] an [D] emptiness standing [A] at the door
[E] Trying to take me back [A] to [D] the way [A] I was before
I [F#m] used to feel alone here but [D] it's not [A] that way no more
Oh bye, bye, [D] bye, [A] bye baby _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [D] _ [A] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [D] _ [A] _ _ _ _ _ _
[D] _ _ [A] _ _ _ _ [D] _ _
[A] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ Now the drunks have turned to strangers [D] and the stars [A] are out of tune
As I think about the one who might [D] have [A] saved me
I know you're out there somewhere [D] between the highway [A] and the moon
Oh bye, [D] bye, bye, [E] bye [A]
baby
_ Oh bye, [D] bye, bye, [A] bye [E] _ [A] baby
Hey _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [N] it's Carl on KEXP and Swingin' Doors, bye bye baby
So you can also find on his latest album K-Mag Yo-Yo
Came out a couple of months back
Really great album too by the way Thank you
I'm sure you probably heard that a lot
It never gets old
Every record of yours seems to be getting
The critical acclaim just seems to be building I would say
Still seems to be heading on upward
It's been a good response so far to this
You just put it out there and hope people like it
Somebody told me once records are like children
You make them but you can't really
That's all you can do
You're not responsible for how they turn out at the end
Once they're out in the world
Yeah, [E] it's their own thing
They could be _ [C#] angels or devils That's right _ _
