John Gorka – A Saints Complaint (Guitar)

                       Am
I never lived anywhere

                      C
I didn't mind leaving

  G
I didn't want to go

                    Am
Short on the giving

                  C
Long on receiving

                      G
I never knew anything

         D       C      G
I didn't want to know

                   Am
I liked the towns

        C
But the brown bugs in my bed

  G
I could have done without

                     Am
I liked the taconite

                         C
Slate roofs and steeples

                    G
A few crucial details

    D       C    
Of my whereabouts

               G                Am
Don't think you should hesitate

             C             D     C
Nothing comes to those who wait

            G                             Am
Once I heard a saint's complaint, he said

                     C    D    G       Am     
"Good things come to those who ain't"

     C       
"Who ain't"

                 Am
So I moved west

                                  C
To where your weather comes from

G
When it's done with you

                       Am
I've got a place here

        C                           G
More to love, more to feel, more to do

    D       C        D G
And more to lose

                      Am
So, I've got a taste

                           C
Of what I've been missing

  G
I really want to go

                     Am
There's more to give

                        C
More room to breath in

                    G
I hardly see anyone

             D       C        G C   D C
That I don't want to know

               G                 Am
Don't think you should hesitate

             C             D     C
Nothing comes to those who wait

            G                            Am
Once I heard a saint's complaint, he said

                     C    D    G        Am   C   D   C
"Good things come to those who ain't"

               G                Am
Don't think you should hesitate
