Jake La Botz - used to be (tabs and lyrics by Nickey Whitfield)

(Capo on 3 fret)

Basically D - A - G


DI (xx0232@1)used to have a woman in my home
ALong (x02220@1)long time ago
AAnd (x02220@1)I still recall that gal
DThough (xx0232@1)she's been a long time gone
GShe (320003@1)might have stayed
                  DBut (xx0232@1)what I had to give
              G (320003@1)Was more like love
D (xx0232@1)       ANow (x02220@1)all I have
     G (320003@1)                     DIs (xx0232@1)a used to be and ain't no more

I used to have music in my home
Long long time ago
And I still recall that song
Though it's been a long time gone
I try to sing it yet
But it comes out in soughs and moans
And now all I have
Is a used to be and ain't no more

                       AWell, (x02220@1)there used to be pictures upon the wall
          G (320003@1)        G7 (320001@1)         DAnd (xx0232@1)there used to be kids runnin' round in the hall
          AAnd (x02220@1)there used to be more than just one chair
           G (320003@1)   G7 (320001@1)               D (xx0232@1)
Cause when I had friends they would visit me here

          G (320003@1)                            
And there used to be a cross made of gold
D (xx0232@1)                        GHanging (320003@1)on the mirror that I since broke
D (xx0232@1)           A (x02220@1)But now all I have
     G (320003@1)                     D (xx0232@1)    
Is a used to be and ain't no more

They used to bring mail to my home
Long long time ago
And I still recall those letters
Though they've been a long time gone
But how can they bring the mail
When the numbers on the house are gone
And now all I have
Is a used to be and ain't no more

I used to have a bible in my home
A long long time ago
And I still recall that book
Though it's been a long time gone
And it's been so long since I called the lord
I'm afraid he won't respond
And now all I have
Is a used to be and ain't no more
