Son Volt – Too Early (Guitar)

G                           C
Mileage has taken its toll, painted with lines to show,

Am                        Em           G                         D
You've had your fill of asphalt, cough tremors and smoke-filled doors.

G                                 C
Look like the habit controls you, look like you need a rest,

Am                    Em           G                  D
You've made it to the timber line, don't know what to expect.

Am            C
God knows you don't need it,

    G                  C
Too early you might be the one.

Em              D
  Find yourself somewhere else,

                 C
Too early in the sun.

G                         C
Song strains distant over,  the barroom drink-filled roar

Am                 Em                    G               D
The old folksinger lays it down, not for long, no longer ignored.

G                            C
Spinning tales of temptation,  gambling days lost and won,

Am              Em                 G              D
No crimes committed here, too much habit could be the one.

Am            C
God knows you don't need it,

    G                  C
Too early you might be the one.

Em              D
  Find yourself somewhere else,

                 C
Too early in the sun.

G                                   C
Never seen half of what you've seen,  real life never quite adds up.

Am                        Em                   G                 D
The road goes on when the faces don't, word of mouth never tells the truth.

G                                   C
Like to hear your story told with a two-step beatin' rhyme,

      Am               Em           G               D
Could be Tennessee or Texas, on and on the mad road winds.

Am            C
God knows you don't need it,

    G                  C
Too early you might be the one.

Em              D
  Find yourself somewhere else,

                 C
Too early in the sun.
