Basias' acoustic version of this song.
[F#m]Call this on my awful luck
Skies they opened [Bm]wide for us
[A]Oh, what a heavy [E]rain it was that [D]covered [A]all of [E]you
[F#m]The wind has changed, my boy
I never knew a [Bm]voice like yours
But I [A]know just what [E]good it was, that l[D]ie you h[A]old on t[E]o.
[D]But to call those shadows coming [A]after [Bm]you
[F#m]Go on, go on
I couldn't bear to [Bm]lose
[A]Go on, go on
I couldn't [F#m]stand [E]to
[Bm]They begged you for your awful words
So let them know the burden of your [F#m]blues.
[F#m]It could've been the one you loved
The visions of the [Bm]things I'd done
Well, I [A]wouldn't be the [E]only one if you'd [D]only [A]told the [E]truth.
[F#m]While they chased you down that night
I was pulling feathers [Bm]from your lies
Oh I [A]swear I saw it [E]in your eyes, [D]you never [A]told it [E]true.
[D]But to call those shadows coming [A]after [Bm]you
[F#]Go on, go on
I couldn't beg you [Bm]to
[A]Go on, go on
I couldn't [F#m]stand to [E]lose
[Bm]They begged you for your awful words
So let them know the burden of your [F#m]blues [Bm] [A][E][D][A][E]
[D]Oh to call those shadows coming [A]after [Bm]you
[F#m]Go on, go on
I couldn't beg you [Bm]to
[A]Go on, go on
I couldn't [F#m]stand to [E]lose
[Bm]They begged you for your awful words
So let them know the burden of your [F#m]blues.
[F#m]Call this on my awful luck
