A Man Who Was Gonna Die Young Eric Church
ive seen him play it on a documentary about the album and this is exactly how he plays it you just
gotta figure out the pickin patern and hammer ons for yourself.....you hardly ever hit the e string
though so you can just leave it open
capo on the 8th fret
[D/G]
e:---3--- B:---3--- G:---2--- D:------- A:------- E:---2---
into:D G A D G A
[D]I like fast cars and [G]sharp dreams,
[A]Chased a lot of [D]crazy things,
[G]Left behind my share of [A]broken pieces
[D]This morning I turned 3[G]6
[A]when you just remember ha[D]lf of it
[G]You wonder how you out-lived Hank [A]or Jesus
[G]I put the rage in a river, r[A]oll in a thunder
[D]But you kept me from going [G]under
[G]When that current got to[A]o heavy
[G]I always thought I'd be a[A] heap of metal
[D]And a cloud of smoke, f[G]oot stuck to the pedal
[G]Sold for parts like a junkyard rust[A]ed-out Chevy
[G]Fear I've had[D/G] none,
[G]What the hell[D/G] made you wanna love
[G]A man who was[A] gonna die [D]young?
[D]In the mirror I saw my[G] surprise,
[A]Who knew gray hairs like[D] to hide on a hea[G]d,
Didn't think he'd live pa[A]st thirty
[D]If I make it thirty m[G]ore,
[A]It's the brown that you'll b[D]e looking for
[G]As you run your fingers through,
[A]Say slow down honey
[G]I put the rage in a river, r[A]oll in a thunder
[D]But you kept me from going [G]under
[G]When that current got too [A]heavy
[G]I always thought I'd be a heap o[A]f metal
[D]And a cloud of smoke, foot stu[G]ck to the pedal
[G]Sold for parts like a junkyard ruste[A]d-out Chevy
[G]Fear I've had[D/G] none,
What the hell[G] made you wanna l[D/G]ove
[G]A man who was [A]gonna die y[D]oung?
solo:D G A D G A
Call[D] it intuition, or c[G]all it crazy
[A]Just thought by now I'd be[D] pushing up daisies
But[G] I'd gladly stick around if we'r[A]e together
So baby[D] when you bow your head[G] tonight,
Could you [A]tell the Lord I've chan[D]ged my mind
And with y[G]ou I'd like to [A]live forever[D]
