Текст песни с аккордами
Вступление
The GemsOnVHS version is half step down with Capo on 1, you can also play it in standard tuning without Capo
Like always when John Davey is playing, there are tons of hammer-ons and pull-offs.
For reasons of clarity, I just noted the basic chords
[Verse 1]
G C G
If you ever thought my life would be in shambles
Em C D
I guess you've never seen the steady wabash amble
C G Em D C
Like so much clear water over smooth white stone
G D C G
Well I feel as though this place was still my home
[Verse 2]
G C G
Oh let's talk of moving up into the city
Em C D
Just to have something to keep your whole world busy
C G Em D C
Well I still like the pace of these small midwestern towns
G D C G
I'm not rushing to tie anybody down
[Chorus]
Em C G
And my dreams are not for nothing
Em G D
All my needs and all my wants, they still collide
Em C G Em
So as long as I'm alive and I am breathing
G D C G
I keep coming and going with the tide
[Verse 3]
G C G
Well I went to Mississippi with my sister
Em C D
We slept in parking lots, saw things we'd never seen
C G Em D C
And as we sat below magnolia trees on Oxford Square that day
G D C G
We both thanked our lucky stars that we could live this way
[Verse 4]
G C G
Yet I'm still asked where all of this is headed
Em C D
Is treading water all you're ever gonna give
C G Em D C
And I just smile and I turn 'cause I guess they'll never learn
G D C G
It's not whether what you get but how you get there that matters
[Chorus]
Em C G
And my dreams are not for nothing
Em G D
All my strongest feeling, they still push and pull
Em C G Em
So as long as I can keep my head above the water
G D C G
I keep kicking until I reach that distant shore
[Interlude]
G C G Em7 D Em G D Em G D G
[Verse 5]
G C G
I'm still the king of playing towns you've never heard of
Em C D
Still wear the crown for putting my isles on a car
C G Em D C
And I'll take the steady wabash amble with me wherever I ramble
G D C G
With the ghost of William Digby at my side
[Chorus]
Em C G
He says our dreams are not for nothing
Em G D
All these lives we lead we were never meant to hide
Em C G Em
So as long as you're alive and you are breathing
G D Em C
Just keep coming and going with the tide
G D Em C
Keep on coming and going with the tide
G D C G
Keep on coming and going with the tide
