Lines on my (G)head

She spoke of (G)stran gers

sleep two a (G)bed.

Kept on try ing, buy ing time,

not wait ing on (G)fate.

I (Fmaj7)some how

got the feel (G)ing

that I (Fmaj7)o pened my eyes too (G)late.

I (C)saw where you came from, (Am7)called out your name, but there’s (Gm)no an swer.

We (C)lived on your door step, I (Am7)made you my wife, I don’t (Gm)need that.

Lines on my (G)face,

while I (Dm9)laugh, nev er be lest a I (G)cry.

Speed cit y, (G)rase dirt y, grit ty, you can on wav ing me good bye.

Now (Dm9)there’s so man y (G)peo ple, is turn ing slow er, my er to fam ily of (G)friends.

Tryin’ so hard to (G)make me smile ter,

’til this heart ache mends.
