INTRO
The intro follows a three chord pattern (Em, D, C) which appears in the song. I like to
play the Intro anytime I see those three chords show up in the verses, but it sounds
fine without it.
The three chords are an A minor shape on the 7th fret (Em),
an A major shape on the fifth fret (D), and a standard C.
The 0h1 that appears within the C chord can be played anytime C is at the end of a line.

Am D She sees the Day Lily's post inside C D And the tears spring to her eyes Em D C You turn the car around and you?re headed back down that track
VERSE 2
Em She's had a heart attack D C But the bottle of Jack sits on the counter like the devil she knows Em D And he beats her up and she fills her cup C D With the embers of a dying fire glow Am D See how she looked in her school year book C D Her friends signed the margins all around Em D But would you stay in touch you know I miss you so much C D G I hope we get out of this town
CHORUS
Em D C Every day that you get up and force your cards Em D C Playing your story in fits and starts Em D C Take your prospects and your pickaxe and you trudge down to the stream Am C Em And you bloody your hands, digging for your dream
VERSE 3
Em D C I went looking for the answers from someone I heard believes that life gets easier Em D C And you learn how to breathe and you learn how to grieve your past Am D You study the masters and their books C D Giving in to the barbs and hooks Em D C Till you except it with grace when your true love doesn't last
CHORUS
Em D C Every day that you get up and force your cards Em D C Playing your story in fits and starts Em D C Take your prospects and your pickaxe and you trudge down to the stream Am C Em And you bloody your hands? digging for your dream
REPEAT CHORUS
Em D C Take your prospects and your pickaxe and you trudge down Em D C Take your prospects and your pickaxe and you trudge down Em D C Take your prospects and your pickaxe and you trudge down
