Codeine by Jason Isbell & The 400 Unit (Standard Tuning)


VERSE
G5          D5                 E5   C5
If there's one thing I can't stand
G5         D5                  E5       C5
it's this bar and this cover band
G5         D5                      E5                       C5
trying to fake their way through 'Castles Made of Sand.'
G5      D5                 E5       C5
That's one thing I can't stand.

G5          D5                 E5       C5
If there's one thing I can't take
G5          D5                 E5       C5
it's the sound that a woman makes
G5          D5                 E5                     C5
about five seconds after her heart begins to break.
G5      D5                 E5       C5
That's one thing I can't take.


BRIDGE
B5                                C5
She should be home by now but she ain't.
B5                            C5
I should've gone by now but I cain't.


CHORUS
          G5                     D5                E5         C5
One of my friends has taken her in and given her Codeine.
          G5                     D5                E5         C5
One of my friends has taken her in and given her Codeine.


VERSE
G5    D5               E5       C5
Them eyes was big as stars
G5      D5                  E5       C5
when I saw you behind the bar.
G5                  D5              E5                    C5
I guess that's the way to keep on smilin' where you are.
G5             D5               E5       C5
But girl them eyes was big as stars.

G5         D5                     E5       C5
It sounds funny when you say my name.
G5                D5                    E5       C5
It's like you're chewing on a foreign thing
G5             D5                  E5              C5
and you won't get to sleep 'till dawn if it don't rain.
G5            D5                     E5       C5
It sounds so funny when you say my name.


BRIDGE
B5                                   C5
You oughta come home tonight but you won't.
B5                                 C5
I wish we knew how to fight but we don't.


CHORUS 2
            G5                     D5                E5         C5
One of your friends has taken you in and given you Codeine.
            G5                     D5                E5         C5
One of your friends has taken you in and given you Codeine.


VERSE
G5           D5          E5       C5
Darlin' I'm not one to judge
G5        D5                          E5     C5
but if I was then I'd say you don't look so good.
G5      D5             E5       C5
Got no answers of my own
G5            D5                      E5            C5
but with you gone, this place looks bigger than it should.

G5          D5                 E5       C5
If there's two things that I hate
G5              D5                  E5       C5
it's having to cook and trying to date.
G5       D5                   E5                  C5
Busting ass all day to play 'hurry up and wait.'
G5        D5                 E5       C5
That's a few things that I hate.


BRIDGE
B5                     C5
If I call when I ain't drunk
B5                        C5
This old boat'll still be sunk


CHORUS 3

'cause one of my friends has taken her in and given her Codeine.
          G5                     D5                E5        C5
One of my friends has taken her in and given her Codeine.
          G5                     D5                E5        C5
One of my friends has taken her in and given her Codeine.
          G5                     D5                E5        C5
One of my friends has taken her in and given her Codeine.
