Emerald Isle

• Am

  Am 
I wait, on the Emerald Isle 
    F			   C 
For you to come and rescue me 
           Dm 
From every step I can't take 
F 
Feet don't you ever break 
Am		  G 
Drag me over that line 

    Am 
Halfway, around the medicine ball     
   F			 C 
Is far enough to blow me back 
		   Dm 
Like you broke the bank on the ticket 
      F 
Worth every damn nickel 
	 Am	      G 
Well you got me, that time 

			F		 C 
'Cause I've been on the road one day too long 
	       F		      C 
Can't hear the record for another sad song 
		  F		     C 
Look at all these faces can't all be wrong 
		   G 
That's a lot of my heart out there 

	Am 
Did you fly, a million miles 
    F			    C 
For every single one that I ran 
	     Dm 
I don't know which of us is crazier 
F 
Oh sweet baby 
	   Am		G 
That's the madness, I desire 

	      Am 
And there's a twinkle, in the clifted sky 
     F		   C 
Been there forever 
	       Dm 
And lights the way for the waters 
    F 
The jackals and the lovers 
	Am	      G 
And the broken street lights 

			F		 C 
'Cause I've been on the road one day too long 
	       F		      C 
Can't hear the record for another sad song 
		  F		     C 
Look at all these faces can't all be wrong 
		   G 
That's a lot of my heart out there 

              F		  	          C 
So do we keep running through the motions baby 
	     F			   C 
Knowing that someday is gonna come maybe 
                    F			   C 
When you can't keep your pretty mouth from saying 
           G 
I wanna go home 

Am   F    C    Dm    F    Am    G (2x) 

  Am 			        F 		       C  
I wait, on the emerald isle for you to come and rescue me
