Misc Unsigned Bands – Arlington - River James (Guitar)

D                Am              Em                   D
Just across the river, there’s a place I’ve often been

                    Am           Em             D
Where they rest the warriors and brave young men

                        Am            Em             D
And I’ve heard gorgeous stories about times long past

             Am            Em                D
Preserved in memories more fragile than glass

       Am         Em             D
On and on, here I go, to my rest,

       Am     Em                    D
A long opposed and never-ending debt

       Bm G                      A
Arlington oh I’ve tried and I’ve tried

Bm                  G                          A
But the more that I seek you the more that you hide

      Bm G                      A
Arlington and it scares you to death

             Bm                         Em         A          D
You act like love and suffering are two strangers who just met

D                    Am             Em                        D
And just across the river there’s a hillside covered in white stone

                Am                       Em           D
I’m fighting a war with myself to win a love of my own

              Am              Em                  D
Just as she walks away and I know just where she goes

               Am                 Em                           D
She’s gone to Arlington to dig another one of them damned holes

      Bm G                         A
Alrington, oh I’ve tried and I’ve tried

Bm                 G                    A
Just to reach you love, but I heard no reply

      Bm G                         A
Arlington, your face set like stone

        Bm                   Em       A       D
With a spine of flesh and a heart made of bone

F           Em           D
Oh it’s a shame it’s a shame

      Bm G                      A
Arlington, I’ll be back here again

  Bm                      G           A          Bm
I go where you go cuz I’ve been where you’ve been

       Bm            G A         D
It’s a desperate place- Arlington
