[F]
If the trials that hit are really getting me down,
We [Fm] had a close call, I didn't even see [Bb] it in another one,
I hardly believed [F] it at all, what the writer said,
It means shit to me now, plants and animals,
We're on a bender [Bb] when it's 80 degrees,
At the end of December, [F] what's going on [A]
[Bb] [G] for
[C] you [Bb] and [F] me?
And the show in a piece is going back to the South,
We're [C] hungry, next that I know,
Been [Fm] running the blender [Bb] in a lightning storm,
Our disguise is a blessing [F] I'm sure,
And now the wind up here, becomes a fork in the road,
Pants have gotta [C] go,
[Fm] We're on an island [Bb] on the 4th of July,
It looks like the tide [F] is going high,
I might find a little way to your heart,
Out to the general store,
Where nothing's simply [Bb] gonna wash my bones,
In the Atlantic [F] shore,
[A]
[Bb] [G] For
[C] you [Bb] and me.
