Useless Desires Chords by Patty Griffin

[Bb] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Eb] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Bb] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Eb] _ _ Say _ _ _ [Bb] goodbye to the old street that never cared much for you anyway
The different color doorways you thought would let you in one [Eb] day
Goodbye to the old bus stop Frozen waiting _
[Bb] _ Weekend edition has this town way overrated
[F] _ You _ [Eb] _ _ _ [Bb] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
walk across the baseball green, the grass is turned to straw
A flock of birds tries to fly away from where you are
[Eb] Goodbye, [Cm] goodbye, goodbye [Eb] old friend, I can't make you stay
I [Bb] can't spend another ten years wishing you would [F] anyway
_ How [Eb] _ _ _
[Bb] the sky _ turns to fire _ [Eb] against the telephone _ wire
_ [Gm]
And even I'm getting tired of [F] useless _ _ [Eb] desire _ _
[Bb] _ _ _ _ Every _ _
[Eb] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Bb] day I take a bitter pill, it gets me on my way
All the little aches and pains, the ones I have from day to day
[Eb] To help me think a little less about the things I miss
[Bb] To help me not to wonder how I ended up like _ [F] this
_ _ [Eb] _ _ _ _
[Bb] Walk down to the railroad track and ride a rusty [Gm] train
With a million [Bb] other faces I shoot through the city [Eb] veins
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye old friend, you wanted to be free
[Bb] Somewhere beyond the bitter end is where I want to _
[F] _ be
_ [Eb] _ _ _
How the [Bb] sky _ _ _ turns to fire [Eb] against the telephone _ _ _ _ wire
[Gm] And even _ _ _ _ I'm getting tired of [F] useless _ [Bb] _ [Eb] desire
_ [Bb] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Eb] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Bb] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Cm] _ _ _ _ [Eb] _ _ _
[Bb] Say goodbye to the old building that never tried to know your name
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye old friend, you won't be seeing me [Eb] again
Goodbye to all the window panes shining in the sun
Black [Bb] diamonds on a winter day, goodbye, goodbye to everyone
[F] _ How _ [Eb] _ _ _
[Bb] the sky _ turns to fire against [Eb] the telephone wire _ _
[Gm] Burns the legend _ of the day down, and [Cm] I'm the last [F] one [Eb] hanging around _
[Bb] _ _ _ Ride on a train track, [Eb] and the train _ never comes [Cm] back
And even [Gm] I'm _ getting tired _ [F] of useless _ _ [Eb] desire _ _
[Bb] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Eb] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Bb] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Eb] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
