Townes Van Zandt - Only Him Or Me chords
Start Jamming...
It's really been nice playing.
I play this song I wrote in Oneonta, New York.
It's a good song to play last.
It's about, kind of about leaving.
[E] It's called Only Him or Me.
[B] [A]
[E]
Don't go saying [B] I'm leaving you
[A] Thinking I [F#m] never got close enough [E] to stay
Time [B] runs in and then runs out
[A]
Starts again and it's always [E] been that way
[B] You're gonna drown tomorrow
[E] If you cry too many [F#m] tears for [E] yesterday
[B] Tomorrow's half of all you got
[A] So treat him good
Cause when I'm [E] gone he'll stay
[B]
[A] [E]
[B] I won't be forgetting [A] you
You won't be forgetting me, [E] I know
If memory [B] comes a summer [A] cloud
Rains a sweetness down [E] to me below
[F#] I'll see you like you look right [E] now
Maybe wonder [A] why I [E] had to go
But heaven [B] is the way she [A] is
Rain falls [E] and rivers flow
[B] So [A]
[F#m] [E] [B]
[A] [E]
[B] here's to feeling [A] good
And here's to [E] feeling bad
Here's to [B] being thankful
[A] Sorry for the pleasures [E] that we had
[B] Autumn days and window panes
[E] God forgive us if you feel deceived
The clock [B] don't know you like I do
[A] And it's only him or me you [E] got to believe
[B] [A]
[E] [N]
Thanks.
