Chords

[Intro] G D Am C [Verse 1]
G                   D
I remember all them summers

Am                      C
Playing till my fingers bled

G                             D
You’d sing songs and I’d sing with you

Am                       C
We’d get drunk and go to bed

G                        D
Looking back at all them memories

Am                     C
Lord, I hate to sleep alone

G                       D
But if you ever get the notion

Am                      C
That you need me let me know
[Chorus]
G
It’s just two hours to get there, babe

D
I can make it back in ‘bout an hour or so

Am
Hold you close against my skin

C
I need a little warmth on a night so cold

G
Singing songs we used to sing

D
The one about the lady in the long black veil

Am
Should have seen the warning signs

C
Lord, I love to hear you wail

G
High and lonesome, hard and strong

D
Even if it was a little out of tune

Am
Hotter than socks on the Jersey Giant

C
Lord, I thought you hung the moon
[Interlude] G D Am C [Verse 2]
G                   D
I remember all them winters

Am                        C
Drinking Woodford till we drown

G                      D
We'd get wind about a party

Am                  C
Bundle up and go to town

G                      D
Never worry about the police

Am                    C
Never worried much at all

G                               D
I miss those nights of reckless glory

Am                          C
I’d come back if you’d just call
[Chorus]
G
It’s just two hours to get there, babe

D
I can make it back in ‘bout an hour or so

Am
Hold you close against my skin

C
I need a little warmth on a night so cold

G
Singing songs we used to sing

D
The one about the lady in the long black veil

Am
Should have seen the warning signs

C
Lord, I love to hear you wail

G
High and lonesome, hard and strong

D
Even if it was a little out of tune

Am
Hotter than socks on the Jersey Giant

C
Lord, I thought you hung the moon
[Interlude] G D Am C [Bridge]
Am                          D
   I left town when we were over

Am                          C
  ‘Cause it didn’t feel the same

Am                       D
   Every backroad held a memory

Am                            C     C
   And every memory held your name
[Chorus]
G
It’s just two hours to get there, babe

D
I can make it back in ‘bout an hour or so

Am
Hold you close against my skin

C
I need a little warmth on a night so cold

G
Singing songs we used to sing

D
The one about the lady in the long black veil

Am
Should have seen the warning signs

C
Lord, I love to hear you wail

G
High and lonesome, hard and strong

D

C
Lord, I thought you hung the moon
