G C I saw you at the police station Em And it breaks my heart to say G C Your eyes had wandered off Em To something distant, cold and grey Am I guess you didn't see it coming Someone's gotten used to slumming G Dreaming of the golden years I see you had to change careers Am Far away But we both know its somewhere I saw you on the back page Of some free press yesterday The driftwood in your eyes Said nothing short of love for pay I know you from another picture Of someone with the most conviction We used to read the funny papers Fool around and pull some capers Not today Send a message to her D A message that I'm coming Coming to pursue her Chorus: F Down home country C I rest my face on Asus4 A your bed F I've got you ten times over C I'll chase you down Asus4 A till you're dead I saw you on a TV station And it made me want to pray An empty shell of loveliness Is now dusted with decay What happened to the funny paper? Smiling was your money maker Someone ought to situate her Find a way to educate her All the way Time to come and find you You can't hide from me girl So never mind what I do Chorus: Down home country I rest my face on your bed I met my soulmate country And I left it all for your head I saw you in the church yard And there was no time to exchange You were getting married And it felt so very strange I guess I didn't see it coming Now I guess it's me who's bumming Dreaming of the golden years You and I were mixing tears Not today Not for me but someone I never could get used to So now I will refuse to Down home country I rest my face on your bed I met my soulmate country And I left it all for your head I've got my best foot forward And I'll chase you down 'til you're dead You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsA Am Asus4 C D Em F G Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
