DIRT AND DEAD ENDS (Amy Ray)
No Capo
G
You're looking at foreclosure
D
And doing time
C
And it don't sound good this time
G D
They found the meth and the scale,
C
And the wife that made your life Hell
G B Em
All the time you were telling me
C
You were fine
G D C
Silly man
G
So I got your dog.
D
How is that?
C
I made it nice, I wrote a check.
G D
You cut the weeds back on my drive
C
Cause you're a good guy deep down inside.
G D
What makes a boy like you go bad,
C
What makes a man so lonely and sad,
G D
That he'd poison all he knows
C
And in one year, just let it go?
G B Em
And all that time you were telling me
C
You were fine
G D C
Silly man, silly boy
G D
It's been you and me on this frontier
C
Trying not to be suburban pioneers.
G
Fighting off the pavers
D
And the associations
C
And the covenants against the trailers.
G D
I remember how we used to laugh
C
At all those rotten men in "camo" drag
G D
With their advantage and their guns
C
Up the deer stand shooting up a storm
G B
And all the time
Em C
You were telling me all those lies
G D C
Silly man, I'm just a silly girl
G
There was a time
D
We could hibernate like bears
C
But we finally come up for air
G D
And everything's all marked and cleared,
C
Survey flags flying everywhere.
G
Once you said to me
D
You know, what I'll miss the most
C
Is just being the only ones
G D
With our dirt and our dead ends
C
And no one to turn us in.
Enjoy!
