Over the Red Cedar - Charlie Parr cover Chords

Happy Sunday morning.
We remembered our coffee today, so coffee cheers.
Coffee cheers.
We're gonna do a song by one of my favorite Minnesota artists, Charlie Parr.
He's an incredible storyteller and a great songwriter, and we're gonna do his song, Over the Red Cedar.
I think Charlie usually does this on a 12-string, but the Martin will have to do it.
Between the two of us, we have 12 strings.
That's true.

Take _ [Db] _ a [Ab] _ _

_ _ _ _ _ _ [Ab] _ _
look at [Db] their big house, [Ebm] _ [Ab] _
[Eb] bigger than [Db] they really need it.
[Ab] He got the duallys on his [Db] pickup, _ _ [Fm] when the dealer [Eb] [Db] gave him the choice.
_ [Ab] _ He lost [Eb] his [Db] job at the build site, [Ab] now he's struggling [Eb] [Ab] to feed [Db] his boys.
_ [Ab] The red cedar flows, the red cedar grows, and long after you're _ [Db] gone,
_ _ [Ab] It's [Eb] outlasting you, _ [Db] _ Lord, it's [Ab]
outlasting you, _ [Db] _ Lord, [Ab] it's outlasting you, _ [Db] Lord, [Eb] it's outlasting you.
[Db] _ _ _ _ [Ab] _
His wife was his [Db] high school girl, [Ab] _
and [Eb] they never left [Db] this town.
_ [Ab] _ _
[Eb] Rooms in [Db] bust, _ heaves in [Ab] rust, but they [Eb] can't [Db] bear to see it go.
_ [Ab] _
Now they [Eb] couldn't go [Db] if they wanted to, [Ab] there ain't no [Cm] work anywhere [Db] anymore.
_ [Ab] The red [Db] cedar flows, [Ab] the red [Db] cedar grows, [Ab] and long [Db] after they're gone, _ _ _
[Ab] It's outlasting [Eb] you, [Db] _ Lord, it's [Ab] outlasting [Eb] you, _ [Db] _ Lord, it's [Ab] outlasting [Eb] you, [Db] _ _
Lord, it's [Ab] outlasting [Eb] you.
[Db] _ _ _
_ [Ab] Now she's been [Eb] serving food [Db] down at Butts, [Ab] he can't [Eb] stand [Ab] to [Db] see her there.
_ [Ab] All the desperate [Eb] men [Ab] sitting [Db] to drink, _ [Ab] _ she's there a little too [Db] long on her legs.
[Ab] _ While he [Eb] sits at home [Db] with the kids at [Ab] night, _ hides the worry [Db] on his face.
[Ab] The red [Db] cedar [Ab] flows, the red cedar grows, and long after [Db] you're gone,
_ _ _ [Ab] It's [Eb] outlasting you, _ [Db] _ Lord, it's [Ab] outlasting [Eb] you, _ [Db] _ Lord, it's [Ab] outlasting [Eb] you, [Db] _ Lord, [Ab] it's outlasting [Eb] you.
_ [Db] _ _ _ _ [Bbm] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Ab] _
[Eb] Now the kids are [Db] getting bigger, _ [Ab] they can't play [Eb] outside [Db] like it used to be.
_ [Ab] You know [Eb] exactly what's [Db] lurking out there, _ [Ab] you see it on the [Eb] news [Db] every night.
[Ab] And the village [Eb] that it [Ab] takes [Db] to raise our [Ab] kids is afraid [Eb] to [Db] come outside.
_ [Ab] The red [Db] cedar [Ab] flows, the red [Db] cedar [Ab] grows, and long [Db] after you're gone, _ _ _
It's [Ab] outlasting [Eb] you, [Ab] _ [Db] Lord, it's [Ab] outlasting [Eb] you, _ [Db] Lord, [Ab] it's outlasting [Eb] you, _ [Db] _
Lord, it's [Ab] outlasting [Eb] you.
_ [Db] _ _
_ _ [Ab] Now Tuesday [Eb] [Fm] afternoons [Db] are the hardest, _ [Fm] when time [Eb] seems [Db] to stand still.
_ [Fm] They've piled up quite [Eb] a few of them [Db] now, _ [Ab] twenty years [Eb] worth of not quite [Db] three o'clock.
_ [Fm] But time [Eb] moves as fast [Db] as it ever did, [Fm] there ain't nothing you can [Eb] do to [Fm] slow it [Db] down.
_ _ [Ab] The red cedar flows, the red cedar grows, and long [Db] after you're gone, _ _ _ _
[Ab] _ It's outlasting [Eb] you, [Db] _ Lord, it's [Ab] outlasting [Eb] you, _ [Db] _ Lord, it's [Ab] outlasting [Eb] you, [Db] _ Lord, [Ab] it's outlasting [Eb] you.
