Words and Music by Son Volt from the 2009 Album "American Central Dust"
The basic chord progression is simple, but I like to throw in lots of hammers and pulls
add more rhythm.
Capo 2
AmGD
Continental motion certainty, the merciful wheels
AmGD
Where the living are living on solvents and ashes
AmGD
Time chain of loneliness, half tone rebellions
AmGD
Nomadic upturns and lights, the skeleton key turns the night
GDAmCG
Antiheroes to follow too, bar and string salvation
GDAm
Throw the calendar away, gonna find a jukebox of steel
GDAmAmGD
A still life with a bottle, a newspaper and a glass
AmG
The carrot dangles and the dance goes on, the bitters circle the
D
drain
AmGD
Emancipate the commonplace, ride high the relief roads
AmGD
Of nightfall and enchanted ends, revelry in borrowed clothes
GDAmCG
Antiheroes to follow too, bar and string salvation
GDAm
Throw the calendar away, gonna find a jukebox of steel
