Patty Griffin - Nobody's crying (with lyrics on clip) chords
Start Jamming...
[E]
He jumps in the taxi for the sky [A] He's off to slay some demon [E] dragonfly
And he looks at me that long last time Turns [A] away again [Em] and I waved goodbye
In [B] an envelope inside his coat There's [A] a chain I wore around my [Em] throat
[B] Along with a note I wrote [A] That said I love you but I don't [B] [Em] even know why
Darling [E] I wish you well
I'm way [Em]
too low wishing well Swinging off of [A] those gates of hell
But I [Em] can tell how hard you're [E] trying I just have this secret hope
That sometimes all we do is call Somewhere [A] on the steepest slope
[E] There's an endless road and nobody's crying [A] [E] But the long night turns into a couple long years
Of [B] me walking around and around [E] this trail of tears
With the very loud voices of my own fear [A] Ever ringing and ringing [E] in my ear
Says the love is long gone Every [A] move I make is all [E] wrong
Says you never gave a damn for [B] me Or anything or [Em] anyone
Darling I wish you well I'm way too low wishing well
Swinging off of [B] those gates of hell [E] But I can tell how hard you're trying
I [B]
[E] just have this secret hope That sometimes all we do is call
Somewhere [Em] on the steepest [Am] slope There's [E] an endless road [B] and [E] nobody's crying

I [E] wish you well On your [Em] way to wishing well
Swinging off of those gates of hell But I can tell how hard you're trying
[A] I [E] still have this secret hope [A] That [Em]
sometimes all I do is call
Somewhere [A] on the steepest slope [E] There's an endless road and nobody's crying
