Intro:� (Bm�� G)
� Bm
If moths could light matches,
����� G
this world would be ashes.
Em G Bm --- G
and they'd cling to the white hem of your dress.
���������Bm
Well, we dance in the dust storm,
������� G
and I'd spin you around.
�������� Em
And we'd count all our blessings,
������G
throw our burdens down.
����� D����������������� G�������Em������� G
Just content to be lonesome as a whistling train,
������ D���������� G�� ���������������Em����������� G
oh, I wish it were different but it's always the same.
