Townes Van Zandt – A Song For (Guitar)

Am                     G            Am
Ribbons of love please keep me true sane

Dm             F          Am
Until I reach home on the morrow

Am             G      Am
Never never to wander again

    Dm           F        Am
I'm weak and I'm weary of sorrow

C                 G            Am
London to Dublin, Australia to Perth

  Dm                   F           Am
I gazed at your sky, I tasted your earth

F                     C           Am
Sung out my heart for what it was worth

G                   Am
Never again shall I ramble

Am                           G              Am
There's nowhere left in this world where to go

Dm          F              Am
My arms, my legs they're a-tremblin'

Am                        G           Am
Thoughts both clouded and blue as the sky

Dm       F         Am
Not even worth the rememberin'

C                    G          Am
Now as I stumble and reel to my bed

Dm                  F             Am
All that I've done, all that I've said

F                    C              Am
Means nothin' to me, I'd soon as be dead

G                       Am
All of this world be forgotten

Am                      G        Am
No words of comfort, no words of advice

Dm         F       Am
Nothin' to offer a stranger

Am             G        Am
Gone the love, gone the spite

Dm              F         Am
It just doesn't matter no longer

C                         G                Am
My sky's getting far, the ground's gettin' close

Dm                      F           Am
My self goin' crazy the way that it does

F                         C          Am
I'll lie on my pillow and sleep if I must

G                         Am
Too late to wish I'd been stronger

G                         Am
Too late to wish I'd been stronger
