La Dispute
 - Last Blues



Am                    Em                       F
   My precious wife,          I am in shambles         I am crumbling,       I am
Am                    Em                       F
   Was it something I did that bid the tide to climb so high that it ripped our shore up
Am                    Em                       F
    I can fix it,             I swear,                 If you trust me.      I am old
Am                    Em                       F
   and I am rusting           but I care               I care

      My precious wife,   we made a promise,
Am       Em            F
         Pledged   our flesh to be one
Am       Em            F
    How  can    you    doubt a love that 
Am       Em            F
stood so proud  as we  raised our children?
 
Am       Em              F  
         I believe in      it still       
Am       Em              F
         It has faltered   and it is failing
Am       Em              F            
     But I know            it's there
Am       Em              F
         It's there           and how it changed

    Cm           Gm           Bb
             The way you      thought of me
    Cm           Gm           F
How strange   to think     we once were lovers
    Cm           Gm           Bb
       Now we've wrapped  the past up in broken glass
    Cm           Gm           F                  
             And when   you   speak my name you 
    Cm           Gm           Bb
    shudder. My  precious wife,     believe I'll save this
    Cm           Gm              F
                 I'll revive it,    I will
    Cm           Gm           Bb              
           We've built    a   family from this
    Cm           Gm           F                               
    marriage.                 Why would you tear it apart?

   Speak now, precious. Your silence screams. You're giving in to your failure
   F                                                      
   Hear me, that promise that you made was meant to keep 
   C                  Em                E      E7         
forever. Until we die,   you're not allowed to change your 

   Am
   mind.  Oh husband, I could not control it
   F
      Husband, I could not abstain
   C                                Em            E        E7
      One cannot stop the wind from blowing nor refuse the falling rain

   Am
      Love stirred up a storm
   F
 inside me.   Wrapped its arms around my
   C                     Em               E      E7
   waist.   I failed you dear, I'm sorry, oh I'm sorry

   Am
      But there was nothing I could do
   F
      No, there was nothing I could do
   C                                    Em        E     E7
      Sure as the rain will fall,  Some love just fails

   Am
      There was nothing I could do
   F
      There was nothing I could do
   C
      There was nothing I could do
   Em           E       E7        
      There was nothing I could do
   Am
