Capotraste 4ª Casa
Tom: C
I´m still not sure of the picking pattern but when I get it I´ll tab it out as well. I´m
90% sure of the chords except it might go C to Am in the verse instead of C to F but
both sound pretty good and can be accomplished with a slight change in your singing. C/B
is just the walkdown/transition chord between C and Am
C F
He grew up in a one-horse town
G C G
Wasn´t much to do since all them bars had closed down
C F
He´d stare up to the stars sometimes when no one was around
G C
And he dreamed of getting out
F G
So he bought himself a pick-up truck that was covered up in rust
F G
He found a buddy for of shotgun seat that was someone he could trust
C C/B Am
And they hit the gas, headed west out to the setting sun
F G C
When the dust had cleared, they were gone.
F G
Well leaving just came natural, that´s the way it seemed to him
F G
He´d been doing it so long, that´s the way he´d always been
C C/B Am
And you can find him in some hotel room with the television on
C C/B Am
He might be high and he´ll probably ramble on
C C/B Am
You can laugh beneath fluorescent lights and drink until the dawn
F G C
But in the mornin´....in the mornin´ when you wake up he´ll be gone.
C F
So he met a girl in a town along the way
G C G
She had beautiful brown eyes and a place that he could stay
C F
So he fell in love, and she fell in love in kind
G C G
It was so perfect that of course he lost his mind.
F G
He snuck of the kitchen one day before the dawn
F G
She called out after him and ran across the lawn
C C/B
And he said some things that he didn´t mean
Am
That he´d best be travelin´ on
F G C
She shed some tears and he was gone.

Well leaving just came natural, that´s the way it seemed to him

C F
Eighteen years later, fifteen-hundred miles from home
G C G
He can´t shake her from his mind though the whiskey soaks his bones
C F
He heads out on a back-roads in the middle of the night
G C G
Head up to the meadow, you know he timed that curve just right
F G
But some bridges you cross over but the rest you´ve got to burn
F G
He may have lost the road the road but I know he made his turn
C C/B Am
And as we pulled him from the wreckage, I promised him a song
F G C
Cuz it was clear that he was gone.
