Chords

Figuring out the chords helped me to figure out a lot of the complex guitar picking patterns
G                                                              C
The shatter of the bottles would scare me somethin' awful as a kid

G                                                           C
My fear, how it would harden and find home in places that I hid
CHORUS:
Am           
I'd tear 'em down

I'd run away

Am
Never found

    Cmaj7
My getaway

G                                                          C
Outside Tuscaloosa, the time you thought you'd turn it all around

G                                                              C
Remember how you used to think, you could salvage anything you found
CHORUS
Am
you knew it then

D
you know it now

Am
rattle chains

             Cmaj7
still rattles loud
BRIDGE:
C
and all those years of movin'

Am           D         G
I was slowly losin' all my name

C                         Am               D              Cmaj7 
no matter what I ruined it couldn't hold a candle to the pain
Ooo Ooo CHORUS:
Am
My tears are real

D
and all my own

Am
pourin' down

          Cmaj7
their awful low

G                                                             C
The soft roll of the water reminds me of my father's parting words

G                                                            C
Son now don't you bother lookin' for your place out in the world
CHORUS:
Am
the tidal roll

D
through the waves

Am
son you'll find

       Cmaj7
your getaway
