Intro:
[Am] [/] [Am+] [/] [Am6] [/] [Am+]
[Am] [/] [Am+] [/] [Am6] [/] [Am+]
Verse 1:
I woke [Am]up with the [Am/G]war in my h[Am/F]ead
An old man's grumb[E7sus4]le, and an extra [E7]space in the bed
[Am]And if [Am/G]ole' John [Am/F]Prine, could sing the next [E7sus4]line
'Bout [E7]something that can make me smile
Bridge:
[Dm]I'm gonna have to be con[G7]tent to
Stare [E/G#]at your baby photos till [Am]it makes [Am(maj7)]sense
[Dm]And were you ever mine, anyw[G7]ay?
Speak [E/G#]up as I drop away
Chorus:
I wr[A]ote down what I think
On the h[Dmaj7]ead of a matchstick
[A] Wrote it all short and sweet
[Dmaj7] All that made sense to me
[F#m]Burn six thousand miles
[Bm]Sorry for all the times
[Dmaj7]I just can't add up all the songs
(Repeat intro)
To find the damage we done
Verse 2:
I fought for you like a doll from a tree
I keep a straight stiched face
As the ground makes a bed for me
I keep my eye where I fell it sends no replies
Bridge 2:
You can run so long from sadness
That you're never at home for the fun
I can't make excuses for the short-hand abuses
Thank god it ain't a sunday night
Chorus:
I wrote down what I think
On the head of a matchstick
Wrote it all short and sweet
All that made sense to me
I burnt six thousand miles
Sorry for all the times
I just can't add up the songs
To find the damage...
I wrote down what I think
On the head of a matchstick
I wrote it all short and sweet
All that made sense to me
I'm burning out in the lights
Sorry for all the times
I just can't see how it comes
To find the damage we done
The damage we done
The damage we done
