Shovels & Rope - "Carry Me Home" (Audio) chords
Start Jamming...
[C] I was a selfish young man [G] when I lost my [Am] granddaddy
Fell in love to [F] the beast, started shooting at [C] it
[G]
Got [C] more bottles than leaves on [G] my family tree
[Am] Late nights, early flights, [F] it's the life for [C] me
[G]
[F] You get burned [G] by the fire
[F] I'll get choked [G] by the smoke
[C] Well the thunder does the talking
[E] But the lightning does the work
[G] Oh, carry [C] me [F] home
I'm no good, [C] [F] I'm burned out
[C] [F] [G] Can't tell I'm crying
Cause I'm a stone [Am] dragging my love along [F] the low [C] road
Get your shoes on, get in [G] the car, get the lead out
[Am] Get over yourself, get [F] everything you need set [C] out
[G] [C] One hand on the heater, [G] the other flippin' the radio
[Am] Full moon fever, full [F] cup of coffee on an open [C] road
[G] [F] But the sun's [G] comin' up, [F] it's my heart [G] like a drug
[C] And all my wasted efforts [E] are piled in a truck
[G] Oh, carry [C] me [F]
home
Oh, [C] [F]
I'm burned out, [C] [F]
won't get [G] it till I'm cryin'
Cause I'm stoned, [Am] dragging my love along [F] Along, [C] along
[F]
[G] [C] [F]
[G] [C] [F]
[G] [C] [F]
[C] Left for the stream on the street, [D] fell for the lie
Fell from [Am] grace, fell far behind
[Fm] Fell out of time, fell out of [C] pace
[G]
[C] Fallen backwards, fell over, [G] fell off the [D] face of the earth
[Am] Fell in a book, get a look, [F] arms flailing free
[C] Fallen face first
[G] But [F] at night, [G] we were free
[F] Miracle [G] on the sea
[C] I'm looking out for you
[E] Are you looking down on me?
[G] Oh, carry [C] me [F] home
I'm [C] [F]
burned out, [C] [F] won't get it till I'm [G] cryin'
Cause I'm stoned, dragging [Am] my love along [F] [C] Along, along
[F] [G] [C] [F] [C]
