High Lonesome


these are the chords in standard tuning. great song. A So the ambulances came Dm G They took your pulse and packed up your things A And the papers read C G Some boys forget what the heart it brings A And the pounding in the street Dm C Was your heart in four four time A And the taste of defeat C G F G Was was never too far from your mind Am F C G And Maria came from Nashville with a suitcase in her hand Am F C G I always kinda sorta wished I looked like Elvis Am F And in my head there's all these classic cars C G And outlaw cowboy bands Am F C G I always kinda sorta wish I'm someone else A So gravity came Dm G And stole the temple that the schoolboys praised A And the crowd shuffled in C You're getting drinks for the same boys G A Who once bought you everything And the patter on the bar Dm G Was just this one time A The patter on the bar C Was just this one night G F G Only to get by Am F C G And Maria came from Nashville with a suitcase in her hand Am F C G I always kinda sorta wished I looked like Elvis Am F And in my head there's all these classic cars C G And outlaw cowboy bands Am F C G I always kinda sorta wish I'm someone else cheers
