Words and Music by Son Volt from the 2009 Album "American Central Dust"

The basic chord progression is simple, but I like to throw in lots of hammers and pulls 
add more rhythm.

Capo 2

Am                            G            D
Continental motion certainty, the merciful wheels
Am                          G               D
Where the living are living on solvents and ashes
Am                       G            D
Time chain of loneliness, half tone rebellions
Am                        G                  D
Nomadic upturns and lights, the skeleton key turns the night

G          D             Am                  C   G
Antiheroes to follow too, bar and string salvation
G          D             Am
Throw the calendar away, gonna find a jukebox of steel

G D Am

Am                          G                 D
A still life with a bottle, a newspaper and a glass
Am                                        G
The carrot dangles and the dance goes on, the bitters circle the
D
drain
Am                          G                D
Emancipate the commonplace, ride high the relief roads
Am                               G                   D
Of nightfall and enchanted ends, revelry in borrowed clothes

G          D             Am                  C   G
Antiheroes to follow too, bar and string salvation
G          D             Am
Throw the calendar away, gonna find a jukebox of steel

G D Am
