Chords

[Verse]
     Em  D     G
Today I turned 33

C                G
My oldest didn't call

C               G
Middle's outta state

         D        C              G
And the youngest lives here with me

     Em  D     G
It's not just a town

C                G
It's a final resting place

C                G
When I die from choices

D    C       G
I refused to make
[Chorus]
      C     G               C               G
It takes 8 minutes for the sun to hit your bones

           D        G
I'm a long way from home

     C       G    C      G
Only so many days we can own

            D        G
I'm a long way from home
[Verse]
        Em          D      G
May the places our hearts first broke

C         G
All burn down

C             G
And what was lost

D        C       G
Rise up from the ground

     Em   D    G
I'll hold you closer

C             G
Than a shadow holds a wall

C               G
A child holds a doll

     D       C       G
The way you catch me when I fall
[Outro]
     C     G               C               G
It takes 8 minutes for the sun to hit your bones

           D        G
I'm a long way from home

     C       G    C      G
Only so many days we can own

            D        G
I'm a long way from home

     C     G               C               G
It takes 8 minutes for the sun to hit your bones

           D        G
I'm a long way from home

     C       G    C      G
Only so many days we can own

            D        G
I'm a long way from home

     C     G               C               G
It takes 8 minutes for the sun to hit your bones

           D        G
I'm a long way from home

     C       G    C      G
Only so many days we can own

            D        G
I'm a long way from home
