Shakey Graves – To Cure What Ails (Guitar)

F#               Abm            Db    
So I tried a new direction, Ooo-ooh

                     Abm        Db
A new mindset, a new state

                       B
but running's what it is

                         Db             
it's hard when you're a kid

               F#
to find your place

                        Abm          Db
I know a gang of clever fellows (Ooo-ooh)

                           Abm       Db
we built a fort out in the woo-oods

                             B
we cuss and spit at all the girls

                           Db
without a care in all the world

                      F#
yeah, the living is good

                        Abm
but now I'm supposed to grow

         F#
big and tall

                   Ebm                         F#
seems like I don't get to wear my bare feet at all

                       Db
but when the storm is through

                     B
my feet know what to do

                   F#
all roads lead to you

                            Abm          Db
I think i've grown a little thinner (Ooo-ooh)

                           Abm           Db
without you riding my coattails

                         B
I will trade it in all again

                           Db
for a nice stroll in your skin

                   F#
just to cure what ails

                 Abm
and I can see a palm tree 

         F#
from my chair

                  Ebm                  F#
so I don't really feel like going any-where

              Db
and even if I do

                    B
It really is of no use

                        F#
cause all roads lead to you

                 Abm
and I can see a palm tree 

         F#
from my chair

                  Ebm                  F#
so I don't really feel like going any-where

              Db
and even if I do

                    B
It really is of no use

                        F#
cause all roads lead to you

                Abm             Db
I always try to please you (Ooo-ooh)

                Abm        Db
I never get any sleep (Ooo-ooh)

                           B
love seems easier when it comes

                          Db
but the coming's just the first part

              F#
of having to leave

                         Abm          Db
so maybe ill die a happy minstrel ooo-oor

                           Abm        Db
just a shadow of my former self (Ooo-ooh)

                      B
I'd undo what I have done

                           Db
but lamenting's much more fun

                        F#
guilt is bad for your health

                             Abm
oh, but now I'm supposed to grow

         F#
big and tall

                    Ebm                          F#
seem’s like i don’t get to wear my bare feet at all

                     Db
but when the day is through

                         B
there’s nothing left to do

                         F#

                           Db
