The Back Of My Mind John Hiatt
Native Key: D
3/4 time
(start and between verses, one measure each: D, G, D, A, D, G, D-A, G)
My [D]daddy he stood at the [G]foot of the stairs, he was[D] calling to me at the [A]time
and I [D]knew even then I could [G]die for the thoughts that I [D]kept in the [A]back of my mind[G]
but I[D] dared not to speak how I[G] felt for my dad 'cause there [D]were no words to [A]define
this[D] ball of confusion and[G] feelings and junk that I[D] kept in the [A]back of my [D]mind
[D]so I took to the highway and I [G]kept to myself just a[D] looking and a hoping to [A]find
some s[D]olutions, some answers, some [G]way to exist with this [D]stuff in the [A]back of my [G]mind
so I [D]took me a job and I [G]took me a wife and I [D]took to a bottle of [A]wine
and it did [D]not take long til all I had left w[G]as this [D]stuff in the [A]back of my [D]mind
[D]driving like [G]ra[G/Fshot from the [D]dark in the [A]back of my [D]mind
now the end of the tunnel just never came up til I got to the end of the line
and I saw that the light I was hoping to see was just a spark in the back of my mind
and the cold wind that blew through the hole in my heart made a fire for the very first time
from some branches of trust and a kindling of faith and that spark in the back of my mind
REFRAIN (2x)
[G]shot from the [D]dark in the [A]back of my [D]mind.
shot from the dark in the back of my mind
shot from the dark in the back of my mind
(one measure retard)
