Cherokee chords by John Moreland

[Intro]

Am Am/F# F Cadd9 Cadd9/B


[Verse]

       Am          Am/F#
I guess I've got a taste for poison
   F           Cadd9 Cadd9/B
I've given up on ever being well
    Am        Am/F#
I keep mindin' the horizon
F               Cadd9 Cadd9/B
Diggin' for lies I have yet to tell
  G+
And I wish you were here to softly say my name
F                       Cadd9
Calm down all the chemicals tearin through my brain
    G+
I don't think I've missed you this much since I was seventeen
  F               Cadd9
I'd call you in the morning, but I think this is a dream
F    Cadd9 Cadd9/B
Cherokee
F    Cadd9 Cadd9/B
Cherokee
      F          Cadd9 Cadd9/B F
Well you'd carve those doubts right out of me
       Am          Am/F#
I see you shining through the treetops
       F           Cadd9 Cadd9/B
but I don't feel you pulling strings anymore
    Am         Am/F#
I still use your old alarm clock
F                 Cadd9 Cadd9/B
Every morning I get further off of course
G+
And don't I hear you speaking in the noises of this house
F                       Cadd9
Airplanes flying over, shaking all my secrets out
G+
Darling tell me something that I don't already know
F                  Cadd9
I'm aware of where to find you. It hurts too bad to go.
F    Cadd9 Cadd9/B
To Cherokee
F    Cadd9 Cadd9/B
Cherokee
          F          Cadd9 Cadd9/B F
Well you'd carve those doubts right out of me

[Outro]

     G+
It felt like the world was burnin You had stars in your eyes
F                     Cadd9
Shinin for a feelin that I can't afford to buy
G+
Everything you taught me still rattles in my head
   F                     Cadd9
I'm stayin off of Main Street, you're talking to the dead
F    Cadd9 Cadd9/B
In Cherokee
F    Cadd9 Cadd9/B
Cherokee
      F          Cadd9 Cadd9/B F
