Indigo Girls – Dirt And Dead Ends (Guitar)

                     G
You're looking at foreclosure

           D
And doing time

                    C
And it don't sound good this time

                 G           D
They found the meth and the scale,

          C
And the wife that made your life Hell

G         B                   Em
All the time you were telling me

          C
You were fine

G  D   C
Silly man

               G
So I got your dog.

         D
How is that?

           C
I made it nice, I wrote a check.

             G                D
You cut the weeds back on my drive

                     C
Cause you're a good guy deep down inside.

              G              D
What makes a boy like you go bad,

              C
What makes a man so lonely and sad,

             G            D
That he'd poison all he knows

            C
And in one year, just let it go?

G             B                    Em
And all that time you were telling me

          C
You were fine

G      D         C
Silly man, silly boy

                   G             D
It's been you and me on this frontier

                    C
Trying not to be suburban pioneers.

                    G
Fighting off the pavers

             D
And the associations

            C
And the covenants against the trailers.

            G               D
I remember how we used to laugh

                      C
At all those rotten men in "camo" drag

                G               D
With their advantage and their guns

              C
Up the deer stand shooting up a storm

G           B
And all the time

                  Em           C
You were telling me all those lies

G         D                 C
Silly man, I'm just a silly girl

             G
There was a time

                          D
We could hibernate like bears

           C
But we finally come up for air

        G                         D
And everything's all marked and cleared,

                 C
Survey flags flying everywhere.

                  G
Once you said to me

                             D
You know, what I'll miss the most

         C
Is just being the only ones

           G                 D
With our dirt and our dead ends

        C
And no one to turn us in.
