Gregory Alan Isakov – This Empty Northern Hemisphere (Guitar)

A
Smoke it flies from whisky mouths

                             E
Vagabonds walk this suitcase town

A
Summer left us beckoning

                              E
The cottonwoods were all worn out

A
Night comes fixing on the day

                           E
And the universe reigned again

           C#m     B                   A      A/G#  F#m
While the wheels roll, it all glows a flickering light

A              E                B           F#m
While you were sleeping I was turning the dials

A              E                 B           F#m
And I walled up your kingdom with radio wires

A              E                 B           F#m
And the bells of the choir came in low and rumbling

                      A
Oh, you should have heard them

 A                                                E
Living here in this city on fire, well I've been fine

A
Just dancing drunk above the street

                 E
Me the ghost of Caroline

             A
And that was me, you know, calling up above

                            E
From the steeples in the church yard

           C#m     B            A      A/G#  F#m
Watch the wheels roll to find another place home

A              E                 B           F#m
While you were sleeping, you bet that I might

A              E                 B           F#m
Walk this empty northern hemisphere wide

A              E                 B           F#m
And the kingdom it came, well it all fell down

                A                       C#m
It all fell to dust, watch it all fly around us

(C#m) A  B                      C#m
             Watch it all fly around us
