Damn Love Song Kris Delmhorst
CAPO: 5th Fret
How can I [C]carve your name in the [G/B]trunk of a tree
That'll [Am]be here long after we're [F]gone?
I can't [C]even write it in the [G/B]steam on the [F]mirror[G]
And with [C]nobody listening, not [G/B]even myself
It's as [Am]much as I can [F]do[G]
To whisper those [E7]words in your [Am]ear
CHORUS:
After [G]all of these years, [C]look at me here
With a [G]love song stuck in my [C]throat
Got the [G]weight of the world on my [C]shoulders, I [E7]won't let it g[Am]o[G]
How can I [C]dive right down in the [G/B]deep blue sea
And [Am]still hope to find my way [F]home?
When I [C]stumble on my [G/B]way to the [F]shore[G]
And when [C]all of the airplanes, all of the [G/B]cars
And all the [Am]miles in the w[F]orld[G]
Are sometimes not e[E7]nough to quite reach your [Am]door
CHORUS:
After [G]all of these years, will you [C]look at me here
With a [G]love song stuck in my [C]throat
Got the [G]weight of the world and there's [C]not too much [E7]else I can ho[Am]ld
BRIDGE:
[G]What if my chances [F]run out some[C]day
[G]Life's not my batting ma[C]chine?
[G]What if it stops throwing [C]pitches be[E]fore I hit [Am]one cle[G]an?[F] [G]
How can I [C]lie beside you [G/B]night after night
And [Am]pick at the lock on your [F]heart?[C]
Never once [G/B]opened my [F]own[G]
'Cause the [C]last time it got free, it [G/B]just cut and run
Like a [Am]stray out in the stre[F]et
And it [G]took about all I h[E7]ad just to make it come [Am]home
CHORUS:
After [G]all these years, is the [C]time drawing near
When a [G]love song flies from my [C]throat?
Can I [G]lay down the weight of the [C]world by the [E7]side of the [Am]road__[F]_
Lay down the weight of the [G]world and call myself [Am]home__[F]_
Lay down the weight of the [G]world? [C] [G] [C]
