First Song chords by Ramshackle Glory

[Intro]
C E F G x2

C       E    F          G
No one needs to tell me how to get (get get) down
C         E    F        G
But won't somebody show me how to get back up?
C        E     F       G
I thought about killing my landlord, but he was pretty nice
C         E      F       G
Instead I paid my rent on time as often as I could
F                   G
I've been making strange friends in the desert, yeah
     E         F
They love Jesus, and America, too
F                G
It ain't as bad as it sounds, someday I'll explain it to you

C E F G x2

C          E    F        G
It's not that I mind sleeping all alone in the grass
C            E         F              G
It's just that I've been dreaming since ... well, maybe I ain't woke up yet
C       E       F       G
But nothing's been quite the same since you shot yourself
C         E            F                 G
I don't know if you believed in ghosts, but I hope you'd haunt me if you were one
F                 G
I've been trying not to steal from everybody I know
E           F
But so far that's impossible
F            G           C (pause)
But here in the desert, someday I hope that it won't
C E       F  G   C (pause)
Be that way for me, no it won't
C E       F  C
Be that way for me, anymore

C E F G x2
C G F C
