Intro
C/G - G
V1
G - C - Dm/C - C - Am7 - C - G - C/G - G
It's a glory day and I've been found
My hat right around, covering my eyes as the storm was rollin in
G - Am7 - D7 - G
Eat my soup and get the car, on the way to somewhere far
Used to be so hard to claim a single win
V2
G - F/B - C - D7 - G / F - C/E - F/D - C - G
She is righteous every morning, so lovely in the dark
But my demon-driven-feet are still on fire
G - C - D - G - F/G - C - G - D
They take me dancing, take me fast, take my belt and take my cash
And send me home before the dawn catches my eye
Chorus
G - B7 - Em - G7 - C - C/D - G
If i can't save us, then i guess i'll be
Just another victim of honesty
G - B7 - Em - G7 - C - C/D - G
When the line gets broader and the field turns green
I'll walk much further than i'll ever need
V3
G - F/B - C - Am - G
So we follow what we feel is gonna take us to the field
Everybody's got a pasture in their dreams
G - F/B - C - A/C# - D - G - F/G - G
Some are wide, and some are bare
And some never took the time to care
Mine's a river cause no grass is good for me
V4
G - F/B - C - D7 - G - F7
Well we can cry while we are laughing, as the minutes do their passing
You don't miss much when you're kissing all you need
G - G7/B - C - Am - D7
Well we can cry while we are laughing, Oh yeah
as the minutes do their passing
C
G - B7 - Em - G7 - C - C/D - G - F - C/E - F/D - C - G
If I can't save us, then I guess I'll be
Just another victim of honesty
G - B7/F# - Em - G7 - C - C/D - G
When the line gets broader and the field turns green
I'll walk much further than I'll ever need
E - C - C/D - G - E - C - C/D - G - Em - C - C/D - G
I'll walk much further than I'll ever need
