 [VERSE ONE]
  G                                                  C 
 Up in your nephew's room, playing on his cousin's guitar
                     G C G 
 I wrote a song for you
 
 [VERSE TWO]
  G 
 You have done drove off with everything I need
    C                 G 
 My box and my tumbleweed
 
 [PRE CHORUS]
    Am            C               D 
 I picked it up on the way to Flagstaff years ago
          Am                C         D 
 I was hanging on to everything you had the grace to show

           G                  Am 
 You were young and you were hungry
      C                  G 
 Lord knows I was hungry too
          G               Am 
 We were both flat out starving
        C                     G 
 For something worthwhile to lose

 [VERSE THREE]
 G 
 Looking over the hill at the lights of your hometown
    C                   G 
 I wrote this song for you
  G 
 Thinking of the way we met, a girl home from school
     C                       G 
 And a boy just passing through
 
 [PRE CHORUS]
     Am            C               D
 I got a job as a cut man at a house just down the road
    Am                 C                   D
 I had never been to town before and I didn't know a soul

 You were my bread and I was your honey

 Up against the dark red wine

 Trying to hold on to the lovely

 Through the bitter of our times

   Am             C            D 
 Agate white wedding dress, turquoise on your ring

 Upright bass and violin as you walk the aisle to me

 Trying to hold on to the lovely
              C             G 
 Through the bitter of our times
