Loose Strings chords by Hailey Whitters

Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)


Intro:
C F Am G (x2)

Verse 1:
C     F         Am
 You left your jacket in the back seat
      G
That's why I'm callin' you now
C     F          Am
 I found it curled up in a ball
      G
I was cleanin' the 'yota out
C       F         Am
 Swing by the house anytime you want
 G        F
Or I can drop it off

Verse 2:
C    F         Am
 You know whiskey makes me honest
G
 Tequila makes you mean
C      F          Am
 Last thing I remember you were cussin'
 G
My keys were in the weeds
C       F
 You threw 'em out
          Am
Said "I'd love to see you leave
G            F*
 But I won't let you go kill yourself

Or get busted by the po-po"


Chorus:
    Am    C  F
So I staggered home alone
             Am G C
Still thinkin' about you
       F
I'm through talkin' about all the things we can't change
Am    C   F
It's hard movin' on
           Am G C
I don't want you gone
     F*
Ain't it strange the way we keep tryin' to tie down this thing
           C F Am G
With these loose strings

C F Am G

Verse 3:
C   F           Am
 Baby, if we weren't so hard-headed
G
Maybe we wouldn’t fight
C   F           Am
 And if you weren't so damn pretty
  G
I might have slept last night
C   F          Am
 You say you can't live with me
 G             F*
Ah, but you can't live without

It's the little things I think about


Chorus:

    Am    C  F
When I stagger home alone
             Am G C
Still thinkin' about you
       F
I'm through talkin' about all the things we can't change
Am    C   F
It's hard movin' on
           Am G C
I don't want you gone
       F*
But ain’t it strange the way we keep tryin' to tie down this thing
          Am
With these loose strings


Bridge:
   G          F
Ain't no "What it's gonna be," babe
   C          Am
What you get is what you see, babe
    G        F
We can try and lock it down
     F
It might hold for now
  F*
But that ain't you and me

C F Am G
C F Am G


Outro:
C  F           Am
 We keep tyin' ourselves down
   G      C
With these loose strings
F         Am
Every time I turn around
G    C
 Loose strings
   F           Am
The two of us just tangled up in
G     C
 Loose strings
F          Am
Every time I think I love you
G     C F Am G
 Loose strings
     C F Am G

     C F Am G

     C F Am G  C
