Austin Lucas - Go West

Standard E-tuning


Capo V    (but i play it with Capo II, sounds better i think)


Intro:  D

		F#m
Oh no malice does exist

	   Bm			G
in these words I am now writing

		Em
Although one might catch

				A
the faintest glance at sorrow

	    Bm
I'm but trying hard to grasp

	     G
all these fragments as they're passing

		Em
Piece the puzzle now

				A
before the trail grows cold

		    G
And I'm not asking for the answers

   F#m
in mathematical equations

	Em		D
to be culled and calculated

	   G
by unbiased hands

G
For at truth I am so stricken

	 A
And I dare only to forever dance

	 D					G
Which proves I am the better broken half

			      A			D
Oh and I am but the bitter better half




Bridge: D (play Intro and some tricky hammers :-) )




D	F#m
In my callous speculations

	    Bm				G
They leave no room for calm or reason

	  Em				  A
I have placed myself in altars that are hollow

      Bm
So adept at finding weakness

	G
I smell fear and close my fists

		Em			A
Unaware the stench I'm smelling is my own

	       G
So yeah, you left me and I'm bitter

	F#m
And my pride is shocked and raw

	E				G
For I believe I will be changing roads no more

  G
I know that life is full of dead ends

	A
But I saw us as a highway

 D					   G
Ever stretching on from coast to golden coast

		A
Oh, but now instead I'm singin'


Refrain:


D	       A
Go west, Emily

		  G			   A
Grab your boots and find yourself somewhere

     D			A	   G
I'll find another lover in the east

	  D		A
I said go west, Emily

	      Bm	 		G
Yeah you know you've got my blessing

	    D				A	G
But you can't expect these eyes of mine

		   D
to watch you leave



	     F#m
So with no malice I'll begin

           Bm			G
just once more to tell our story

		Em			A
Though the ending I may never hope to know

	      Bm
You were a sweet and sound companion

	     G
Though our paths led us apart

		  Em        	         A
And I may never sleep so soundly as I did while in your arms

	    G				F#m
Now all I ask is you remember who you loved and who you lost

             Em              D
Please don't bury me in silence

	      G
Or blackest shroud of thought

	G				A
Don't pretend that what we had was any less than what it was

	    D	   				G
For I will not soon be forgetting the reasons why

				A
we fought so hard to make it work



Refrain:


    D	       A
But Go west, Emily

		  G			   A
Grab your boots and find yourself somewhere

     D			A	   G
I'll find another lover in the east

	  D		A
I said go west, Emily

	      Bm	 		G
Yeah you know you've got my blessing

	    D				A	G
But you can't expect these eyes of mine

		   D
to watch you leave


to watch you leave




D	       A
Go west, Emily

		  G			   A
Grab your boots and find yourself somewhere

     D			A	   G
I'll find another lover in the east

	  D		A
I said go west, Emily

	      Bm	 		G
Yeah you know you've got my blessing

	    D				A	G
But you can't expect these eyes of mine

		   D
to watch you leave
