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
[Am]Continental motion certainty, [G]the merciful [D]wheels
[Am]Where the living are living [G]on solvents and [D]ashes
[Am]Time chain of loneliness,[G] half tone re[D]bellions
[Am]Nomadic upturns and lights[G], the skeleton key [D]turns the night
[G]Antiheroes [D]to follow too,[Am] bar and string salv[C]atio[G]n
[G]Throw the c[D]alendar away, [Am]gonna find a jukebox of steel
[G] [D] [Am]
[Am]A still life with a bottle, [G]a newspaper and a [D]glass
[Am]The carrot dangles and the dance goes on, [G]the bitters circle the
[D]drain
[Am]Emancipate the commonplace, [G]ride high the rel[D]ief roads
[Am]Of nightfall and enchanted ends, [G]revelry in borrowed [D]clothes
[G]Antiheroes [D]to follow too,[Am] bar and string salv[C]atio[G]n
[G]Throw the c[D]alendar away, [Am]gonna find a jukebox of steel
[G] [D] [Am]
