In My Time Of Need

Ryan Adams

Text File

There are a few versions of this one UG but they aren't correct or complete.

For the Capo:

On the album this is played in Bb, the classic Ryan Adams key, by using a Capo III.  On 
performance http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3gA0XkhKeXs he plays the same chords but its 
II.

These are also just the chords, but its pretty straightforward to play some licks based 
these chords.

Enjoy!


In My Time of Need by Ryan Adams (from Heartbreaker)

Capo III

Intro G


Verse 1:

         C       G        C       G
Will you comfort me in my time of need
C              G                D
Take away the pain and hurtful deed

            C         G               C       G
Cause when we need it most there's no rain at all
C              G                D
The dust just settles right there on the field

Chorus:
         Am                       C
Will you say to me, little rain's gon' come
         G                       D
When the sky can't offer none to me
             Am                  C
Cause I will comfort you when my days are through
         G                   C             G
And I'll let your smile just off and carry me

Cause when the calm comes down
I take the truck on into town
And buy whatever we can't seem to grow
Work these hands to bleed
Cause I got mouths to feed
And I got fifteen dollars hid above the stove

Chorus

Verse:
Cause it ain't like it was
On back in those days
When everyone would offer up a hand
These old bones are worn
I've grown tired son
I know my time is surely gonna come

Chorus

Verse:
Lord we married young
Stayed where we come from
And gave those children everything we had

(chorus chords)
Will you stay with me
In my time of need
Though it seems we had such little time for love
