Chords

C                           G
Flat on my back, halfway through a six pack

              F                    C
Hear the neighborhood kids as they play

         F                            G
And the fire hydrant sprays, on this mid-August day

Am      Em         F
God I was I was so far away

       C                       G
She hitchhiked south down from Kalispell now

      F                   C
I am trying to recall how we met

      F                 G
She saw me stare as she tied up her hair

   Am       Em        F
At a diner three miles outside

   Am       Em           F
Of Twin Falls, Idaho late one night
[Verse 2]
   Am            Em
And I offered her a ride

   Am            Em
But she said "Let's stay the night"

   Am            Em
Dragged her nails hard down my back

 Am             Em        F             C        G
Until the crimson blood dripped down on sheets so white
[Chorus]
             F                C
She washed across the Northern Planes

        Am                          Em
Like a storm with no name, she was gone in three days

       F          C          G
How I wish she stayed to rain on me

         F                C
Ooh, and I thought I was safe

          Am                    Em
Swearing these winds of change could not blow us away

             F          C        G
But I learned I would pay for my mistakes

     Am         Em     F
At a diner three miles outside

       F        G            C
Of twin falls, Idaho late one night
[Verse 3]
        C                                      G
Like a half ton of bricks, I'm laid down by my sins

                 F                C
Cause the temple where I used to pray

      F                        G
Is corrupt and profane, I blaspheme in her name

     Am         Em         F
In a city where she's never been

     Am             G          F
At least I have her name on my lips

         Am                Em
Kept her hand right on her gun

        Am                 Em
And she cursed when she was done

        Am                 Em
With her breath hot on my neck

    Am      Em          F        C     G
Whispered "Something to remember me, my love"
[Chorus]
           F                   C
She washed across the Northern Planes

       Am                      Em
Like a storm with no name, she was gone in three days

      F         C               G
How I wish she stayed to rain on me

           F             C
Ooh, and I thought I was safe

         Am                    Em
Swearing these winds of change could not blow us away

      F                C         G
But I learned I would pay for my mistakes

     Am        Em      F
At a diner three miles outside

       F         G           C
Of twin falls, Idaho late one night
