As recorded by Sam Barber (2024 release) [Intro] G D Am C G D Am C [Verse 1]
G                        D
And I remember all those summers

Am                 C
Playing 'til my fingers bled

G                             D
You'd sing songs and I'd sing with you

Am                       C
We'd get drunk and go to bed

G                        D
Looking back at all them memories

Am                     C
Lord, I hate to sleep alone

G                   D
If you ever get the notion

Am                       C
That you need me, let me know
[Chorus]
            G
'Cause it's just two hours to get there, babe

D
I can make it back 'bout an hour or so

Am
Hold you close against my skin

  C
I need a little warmth on a night so cold

G
Singing songs you used to sing

    D
The one about the lady in the long black veil

Am
Shoulda seen the warnings signs

C
But I love to hear you wail

G
High and lonesome, hard and strong

D
Even if it was a littlе out of tune

Am
Hotter than socks on a Jersеy Giant

C                               G  D  Am  C
Lord, I thought you hung the moon
[Verse 2]
G                        D
And I remember all those winters

Am                     C
Drinking Woodford 'til we drowned

G                     D
We'd get wind about a party

Am               C
Bundle up and go to town

G                       D
Never worried 'bout the police

Am                    C
Never worried much at all

G                               D
I miss those nights of reckless glory

Am                     C
I'd come back if you'd just call
[Chorus]
           G
Well, it's just two hours to get there, babe

D
I can make it back 'bout an hour or so

Am
Hold you close against my skin

  C
I need a little warmth on a night so cold

G
Singing songs you used to sing

    D
The one about the lady in the long black veil

Am
Shoulda seen the warnings signs

C
But I love to hear you wail

G
High and lonesome, hard and strong

D
Even if it was a littlе out of tune

Am
Hotter than socks on a Jersеy Giant

C
Lord, I thought you hung the moon
[Guitar Solo] G D Am C G D Am C [Out-Chorus]
     G
