Intro/Bridge: A(hammer the B string)
D7(h B string) E(h D string)
VERSE 1
A E
The money would be pretty good if a quart of milk was still a dollar
Bm A
Or even if a quart of milk was still a quart
D
And the hours well, I don't mind
A
How they creep on by like an old love of mine
Bm E A
Its the years that simply disappear that are doin' me in
D E A D
Guess I married too young, yeah 19 was just too young
Bm A
But sometimes you meet someone and your guts just burn
D E
Its not that I dont love him anymore
A D
Its just that when I hear him coming through that front door
Bm E A
My heart doesnt race like it did once before
CHORUS
D Dm A
Mmmmmm... But I got a horse out in the country
Bm E D A
ahhhh yea.. I get to see him every second Sunday
D Bm Dm A
He comes when I call him, Yeah he knows his name
Bm E Bm E A
Someday day I'll saddle up and the two of us will ride away
INTRO/BRIDGE(run it off the "A" at the end of the chorus)
VERSE 2
A
This weather I could almost stand
E
If the sun would shine a little brighter
Bm A
Or even if the sun would shine at all
D E A D
But lately it just seems to me that this life has lost its mystery
Bm E A
and these cold fall mornings seem to bite just a little bit harder
Bm Dbm
And all my friends have settled down
Bm A
Become their mothers and fathers without a sound
E
Except for Cathy
D
She bought a one way
E
subway ticket
A
and left us all behind
CHORUS
INTRO/BRIDGE
LAST VERSE
A
This town wouldnt be so bad
E
If a girl could trust her instincts
Bm E A
Or even if a girl could trust a boy
This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official COWBOY JUNKIES tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
