Indigo Girls – Sister (Guitar)

A        Dm/A                   A     
Sister, I'm heading out of Alabama

       Dm/A              A
So you better think fast.

    Dm/A                       A
The wind is gonna pick me up now

        Dm/A             A
And the rain won't slack.

A        Dm/A                   
I'm headed down to Georgia

A        Dm/A                   
So don't lose track

A        Dm/A  
Of where you been and where you're going now,

A        Dm/A  
Who you've seen and what they lack,

A        Dm/A  
And why you come undone, every time you go there,

            Dm/A     C/G     Bb/F
You come undone.

Dm/A                     C/G
I know your heart's in danger

     Bb/F
And so is your life.

           Dm/A               C/G
I said you learn to trust a stranger,

 Bb/F
Stop and rest for the night.

         Dm/A             C/G
Set your site up in the headlight

    Bb/F 
The moon won't be enough.

            Dm/A      C/G
Light the embers of another

        Bb/F
And the night won't seem so rough,

      Dm/A      C/G     Bb/F
Sister.

A          Dm/A  
There was a bloody beast of burden

A        Dm/A  
On a dark Texas road,

A        Dm/A  
A woman in the family way

A        Dm/A  
And a car that lost control.

A        Dm/A  
Now I'm studying the distance

A        Dm/A  
Between the blanket and the gun,

A        Dm/A                               Dm/A     C/G     Bb/F
I got ten miles to Natchez and another ten home.

Dm/A                     C/G
I know your heart's in danger

     Bb/F
And so is your life.

           Dm/A               C/G
I said you learn to trust a stranger,

 Bb/F
Stop and rest for the night.

         Dm/A             C/G
Set your site up in the headlight

    Bb/F 
The moon won't be enough.

            Dm/A      C/G
Light the embers of another

        Bb/F
And the night won't seem so rough,

      Dm/A      C/G     Bb/F
Sister.

A        Dm/A 
I said it's trust that brought me here

A        Dm/A 
And trust will bring me home
