Intro   Em/Em/C/D x2 


C                    D
Lord, I miss that girl

G                      C                        
On the day we met the sun was shining down

C                             D
Down on the valley

              G         
Riddled with horses running

C
Crushing them with flowers

C             D          G
I would have picked for her

         C
On the day she was born

C                   D            G            
She runs through my veins like a long black river

       C
And rattles my cage like a thunderstorm

C       D
Oh my soul



Em
What does it mean?

                C
What does it mean?

             D             Em
What does it mean to be so sad?

Em
When someone you love

            C                   D
Someone you love is supposed to make you happy


What do you do

                           G/Cadd9/D/Cadd9
How do you keep love alive?

G/Cadd9/D
When it won't

C                  D
What, what are the words

     G             C
They use when they know it's over

C            D
"We need to talk," or

         G                    C
"I'm confused, maybe later you can come over"

C          D          G
I would've held your mother's hand

        C
On the day you was born

C                    D
She runs through my veins

           G                C
Like a long black river and rattles my cage


Like a thunderstorm

C        D
Oh, my soul

Em
What does it mean?

              C
What does it mean?

             D              Em
What does it mean to be so sad?

Em
When someone you love

            C                   D
Someone you love is supposed to make you happy


What do you do


                        G/Cadd9/D/Cadd9
How do you keep love alive?

G/Cadd9/D/Cadd9
When it won't

G/Cadd9/D/Cadd9
How do you keep love alive?

G/Cad9/D/Cadd9 (however many times you want)

End on G
