Your Love Is My Rest (from the album Walk On) by John Hiatt
[D]These are the words, That [Bm]cry out of me in the[F#m] night
[D]Like a buffalo herd, From a [Bm]shotgun blast scattered in[F#m] flight
I got a [G]one track mind, Going down a [D]one train line
Living on [A]dreams half the time, Going [D]West
I gotta [G]pick up speed, Just to [D]get what I need
The end of the [A]line guaranteed, Your love is my r[D]est
[D]The coal catches fire, I'm [Bm]down the wire in a[F#m] flash
[D]That big old smoke stack, Is[Bm] belching out black smoke and[F#m] ash
S[G]o sad to think of, Hurting the [D]one you love
But surely that[A]'s what leaving does, Yo[D]u'd know best
[G]I gotta pick up speed, Just to [D]get what I need
The end of the [A]line guaranteed, Your love is my[D] rest, Yo[A]ur love is my[D] rest
[D]We pass through the land Of [Bm]Custer's last stand And I[F#m] grin
[D]So this is where old[Bm] Yellow Hair's Ghost dance [F#m]begins
I go[G]t the blood on my hands, Can't even [D]live where I stand
I'm just a [A]traveling man, Cursed or [D]blessed
[G]I gotta pick up speed, Just to [D]get what I need
The end of the l[A]ine guaranteed, Your love is my [D]rest
[A]Your love is my [D]rest, Yo[A]ur love is my [D]rest
[D]These are the words, That [Bm]cry out of me in the[F#m] night
[D]Like a buffalo herd, From a [Bm]shotgun blast scattered in[F#m] flight
I got a [G]one track mind, Going down a [D]one train line
Living on [A]dreams half the time, Going [D]West
I gotta [G]pick up speed, Just to [D]get what I need
The end of the [A]line guaranteed, Your love is my r[D]est
[D]The coal catches fire, I'm [Bm]down the wire in a[F#m] flash
[D]That big old smoke stack, Is[Bm] belching out black smoke and[F#m] ash
