Chord Down Around My Place by John Hiatt

capo 2 intro : Em D Em D Em D Em the radio is busted , down around my place Em D Em every tool is rusted , down around my place Em D Em creeks and rivers dried up , down around my place Em D Em my woman’s tears are cried up , down around my place G D and before there came a flood Am Em some lost all , even blood G D now the sun and wind have come Am2 and left no trace Em down around my place D Em down around my place Em D Em these hunting grounds were hallowed , down around my place Em D Em exhausted fields lay fallow , down around my place Em D Em kingdoms come and crumble , down around my place Em D Em my prayers are merely mumbles , down around my place G D and i put my faith in you Am Em did you make that error too? G D Am2 bound to fail that he might show his grace Em down around my place D Em down around my place solo : switch between Em and D C/G they said you wouldn’t believe G what a paradise this was D ’til every adam and eve , tom , dick and harry Am Em started fighting for what he loved C/G so , we fortified the ramparts G and we built the mighty towers D but it was plain to see , we never were free Am Em from the tyranny of the hour Em D Em the family graves keep winkin’ , down around my place Em D Em at every thought i’m thinkin’ , down around my place Em D Em while the young ones crowd the table , down around my place Em D Em bitchin’ about no cable , down around my place G D and my grandpa says , don’t worry Am Em it’s always the last one in who’s in a hurry G D Am2 to try and slam the door in the next one’s face Em down around my place D Em down around my place D Em down around my place D Em down around my place D Em down around my place
