Chords

[Intro] D A F#m A (x2) [Verse 1]
D            A
I used to think that this was my town

        F#m              A
What a stupid thing to think

D            A
I hear you're fighting off a breakdown

         F#m             A
I myself am on the brink

D             A
I used to want to be a real man

            F#m             A
I don't know what that even means

D              A
Now I just want you in my arms again

F#m             A
And we can search each other's dreams
[Chorus]
Bm
I know you're tired

A                   E
And you ain't sleeping well

Bm
Uninspired

A                  E
And likely mad as hell

Bm
But wherever you are

A           E                         D
I hope the high road leads you home again
[Verse 2]
D                        A
I've heard enough of the white man's blues

F#m                A
I've sang enough about myself

D                         A
So if you're looking for some bad news

F#m                    A
You can find it somewhere else

D                A
Last year was a son of a bitch

F#m             A
For nearly everyone we know

D                      A
But I ain't fighting with you down in a ditch

     F#m              A
I'll meet you up here on the road
[Chorus]
Bm
I know you're tired

A                E
And you ain't sleeping well

Bm
Uninspired

A               E
And likely mad as hell

Bm
But wherever you are

A               E
I hope the high road leads you home again

                    D
To a world you want to live in
[Bridge]
F#m
We'll ride the ship down

          A
Dumping buckets overboard

F#m
There can't be more of them than us

E                D
There can't be more
[Chorus]
Bm
I know you're tired

A                 E
And you ain't sleeping well

Bm
Uninspired

A              E
And likely mad as hell

Bm
But wherever you are

A                 E
I hope the high road leads you home again

                       D
To a world you want to live in
