Verse part 1 Chords: E B C#m C#m B A 

Verse part 2 Chords: A B E A B E 

E                                B  C#m 
No, there won't be an ambush anytime soon 
C#m                          B                     A 
If the birds are returning, it's safe enough to say that much is true 
E                             B            C#m  
In the desert that borders between me and you 
C#m                     B                            A 
Where more than a few good men have failed to come back or get through 

A                              B                    E 
And the only things living around here don't wanna talk 
A                               B                    E 
And the wine isn't working and the vacancy signs are off 
A                               B              E 
The hardships of marching they've only just begun 
A                               B              E 
Love is a country better crossed when you're young 

I'm staring in the window of a moving train 
That looks almost human as she barrels down the tracks and comes my way 
This no good dog of mine's got the heart of a stray 
And is down in the ditch lights before I've even a chance to call his name 
I'm watching the clouds overwhelming the evening sun 
It's just after lightning and before the thunder comes 
When nothing really happens and suddenly then it does 
Love is a country better served with someone 

I remember the evening you last came home 
It was warm as the devil sat back up with his boots put back on 
He said you never get boring, you keep me young 
There's more work than ever and still only one of me to get it done 
Now her ring's on the seat riding shotgun next to my hat 
With her name on the window where fog settles down on the glass 
Nowhere in the middle of somewhere that has no past 
Love is a country you leave and not welcome back 
You leave and not welcome back
