VERSE 1
       Cadd9   G/B      D/A
  Just swing across the southern sky
      Cadd9/G
  And lift    a match to my morning eye
G            Cadd9   G/B     D/A                   G
  Well we'll all  die    young if we're lucky babe
        Cadd9    G/B               D/A
  You'd hate the dark to prove the dawn
  Cadd9/G
  Need    me no more and I'll be gone
      G        C    G/B D/A                Em
  I'm dying to love somebody like you love him
          D/A                             G
  And you look just like my darling Tennessee


CHORUS
(G)                    Am
   Do you think she'll know me
      G/B    Cadd9                       G
   Or see me now   like the broken man I am
           Dsus/F#                  Em7
   Doing a little bit more than the best I can
         Cadd9       D/A           G
   Still she's gonna need a little more


INTERLUDE
G Cadd9/G G Cadd9 G/B D/A G


VERSE 2
     Cadd9     Csus2   G/B    D/A
  So cast your light into  my room
  Cadd9/G
  Kiss    me deep or I'm leaving soon
G            Cadd9 G/B D/A               G
  Well we're far   too young to be dying now
       Cadd9   G/B             D/A
  Just draw me down with every word
  C/G
  Til we find out what we deserve
    G      Cadd9 G/B D/A             Em
  I know I can   not pay my debtor's fee
          D/A                             G
  But you look just like my darling Tennessee


CHORUS
(G)                    Am
   Do you think she'll know me
      G/B    Cadd9                       G
   Or see me now   like the broken man I am
           Dsus/F#                  Em7
   Doing a little bit more than the best I can
         Cadd9       D/A           G
   Still she's gonna need a little more


INTERLUDE
G Cadd9/G G Cadd9 G/B D/A


BRIDGE
                      G
  I would stand in disgrace
D                    Em7      Cadd9
  I would spit in my savior's face
D                      G
  My coat tattered and torn
D                       Em7            C/G
  Just to know that our love will be reborn
                         G            C/G
  And our days pass like autumn wind
                       G              C/G
  And the world spins around me again
          D                         C    Cmaj7/B   G
  And you look just like my darling Te - nne   -   ssee


OUTRO
G Cadd9/G G

           C   G/B D/A                  G
Well we'll all die young if we're lucky babe
