Am*

C/g

Well some may say it's not even funny

(

Am*

)

(

) And there you stand not even trying

(

)

C/g

They say it is in line with the ages

(

Am*

)

(

) Sometimes noise is just your mind

C/g

(

) But the lesson is vague in the light now

C/g

(

) Shows a deer with her mind on the moor

C/g

And now something with the sun is just different

Since they shook the earth in 1904

G(G*)

C(C*)

Am(Am*)

D(D*)

C/g

And as I lowered down I hear it's a message

(

Am*

)

(

) And it's 1902 just telling people to get out

C/g

And if there was just a way I could tell them

(

Am*

)

(

) It's been long but you are right

C/g

(

) And the singing is slow and so quiet

C/g

(

) Like the sound when you sweep up the floor

C/g

And now something with the dirt is just different

Since they shook the earth in 1904

G(G*)

C(C*)

Am(Am*)

D(D*)

(

C/g

) And when the night is young but the bridge is up

(

Em7

)

(

C/g

) Something passing by, I was sure

(

C/g

) And the only one you can tell it to

(

) Well it's the only one that ever knows

C/g

And since more robbers made to go through my window

(

Am*

)

(

) Here is something so strange and something louder than before

(

)

C/g

And you're living with no light or direction

(

Am*

)

(

) But damn precise and now you know

C/g

(

) When believing is hard but you go now

C/g

(

) And you feel what you drag across the floor

C/g

Because something with these drills are just different

Since they shook the earth in 1904

G(G*)

C(C*)

Am(Am*)

D(D*)

(

C/g

) And when the night is young but the bridge is up

(

Em7

)

(

C/g

) Something passing by, I was sure

(

C/g

) And the only one you can tell it to

(

) Well it's the only one that ever knows

C/g

And some will say it's not even healthy

But body is young and mind is sure

C/g

That something is alright with your thinking

Since they shook the earth in 1904

"So this is what I can believe" is what I said to my friend I can recall

C/g

B7/f#

D/f#

I must have been pretty gone when I went through these towns like a cannon ball

And I've already grown up here, here I might as well grow down

No it's shaky building fury, think this wind's going to settle down

Carolina, why are we going with this around

It's so silvery to hear it's the light of little nowhere towns

C/g

C/g

But the treasure we had was so big and we sunk through the earth and believe how slow

C/g

B7/f#

D/f#

And the sun wasn't out for a week and the weekend you said there's just none to show

And I barely can remember little feet on solid ground

And the drinking part is useless when you bury away from sounds

Carolina where are you ending up this time

Say it's silvery to hear like the light of little nowhere towns

C/g

B7/f#

C/g

B7/f#

D/f#

C/b

Well so honestly I'm broken down by this emptiness I feel

D/f#

C/b

First you moan it then you yell it now we don't answer across the street

D/f#

C/b

And I'm racing through my pocket's now cause I'm starting to believe

D/f#

C/b

Selling emptiness to strangers a little bit warmer than my dreams

Bridge

C/g

"Oh this is what I should believe" is what I said to my friend I can recall

C/g

B7/f#

D/f#

I must have been pretty cold when I went through this house like a cannon ball

And I barely can remember asking you through all this time

It's so shaky building fury like this wind's going to settle down

Carolina, where are we going to be found

Here all silvery dear little light of little nowhere towns

Revelation Blues

Intro

Verse 1

I was more than just a coward, I was handsome too

I felt nothing when your flood came down

Holding fines that made me wonder if the lights were wrong

With my hands that never touched no ground

When your talent is in numbers

Of the many times you've gone

I could lie I don't care about forgiving

But sometimes it's just roses dying too young

Instrumental

Verse 2

And you're fencing up the hours in the fields of red

While you think I'm on a loveless stray

In the letters from the lovers in a land gone wrong

Explanations always written late

When your talent curse the framing

Of the crying you heard sung

I could lie I don't care about what's missing

But sometimes it's just roses dying too young

Instrumental

Bridge

With your train of thought always passing here

With its falling paint, and its broken gears

It's the damn revelation blues when you see the path

And you know you won't be the last, oh lord, oh lord

Verse 3

I was more than just a terror, I was crying too

But you showed me in the gusts between

That a wind is sometimes broken and its flying path

Has no meaning no a ghost within

When your talent is in hiding

That your feeling's always wrong

I always want to bring you something

But sometimes it's just roses dying too young

Instrumental

Outro

When your talent is in hiding

That your feeling's always wrong

I always want to bring you something But sometimes it's just roses dying too young

What I've Been Kicking Around

Capo VII

Ah, oh, ah

G/c

Some of your honey in my hand

And a silver dollar in my shoe

G/c

Time had never been so kind

G/c

The naked spring, the weightless songs

And the memories of being young

G/c

And the breath of getting out

G/c

And days wanting to stay

Within, without

G/c

Keep my green eyes open for what I've

Been kicking around, oh

C/g

G/c

I open up the windows now Let the wind right through my country home Let my notes just fly around Then get some rest upon the lawn Where so many years of leaves did fall Like a bed of all what's been And days wanting to stay Within, without Keep my green eyes open for what I've Been kicking around

C/g

G/c

Bridge

I leave at night before the dreams are in

Can't lay and wait for their unraveling

G/c

I need my manners, not my weary soul

And there's so much kindness in the world Some of your honey in my hand And a silver dollar in my shoe Time had never been so bold I cut my losses, leave the ground Feel a hum in every wheel I turn And the breath of getting out And days wanting to stay Within, without Keep my green eyes open for what I've Been kicking around, oh

C/g

G/c
