[Verse 1]
G          C   Am              G
If I loved you, life would be easy
G            C     Am             G
There'd be no truth that I'd be scared of
G              C    Am         G
I could walk through every valley
G           C    Am                G
And you'd light me with all of your love

[Chorus]
G            Em       C             G
But I don't love you, not like I want to
G          Em     C               G
I don't love you and that makes it hard
G            Em      C             G
And every morning, I see how you watch me
G                          Em      C                    G
And each night I know you feel it and it just breaks your heart

[Verse 2]
G                C    Am             G
You'd make good money and come home early
G             C    Am              G
And you'd kiss me and hold me each night
G                  C      Am                 G
We would have children and they would be so beautiful
G            C    Am                 G
And we'd raise them and all would be right

[Chorus]
G             Em     C               G
But I don't love you, not like you need it
G            Em     C         G
I don't love you, good as you are
G            Em      C                   G
And when I kiss you, I know that you can feel it
G                    Em     C                     G
And I see it in your eyes, and it just breaks my heart

[Verse 3]
C                        D
I wish to God I could change it, darling
      G   F        C
Could make you the one
C             D
I will always have these regrets and wonder
G            F         C       D
What else I could have done, I will

G              C    Am             G
'Cause if I loved you, I could be happy
G             C     Am            G
I would make you the light of my world
G             C    Am                  G
I wouldn't wait, love, I'd marry you tomorrow
G              C     Am            G
And we'd make love and I'd be your girl

G             Em    C              G
But I don't love you, much as I want to
G             Em    C               G
I don't love you, no, it would be a lie
G                  Em   C                   G
And you deserve love, you're better than a good day
G             Em    C                  G
And you'll find it, but just not in my eyes

[Outro]
G                Em   C    G
'Cause it ain't here love, no
G                Em   C    G
'Cause it ain't here love, no
G                Em   C    G
'Cause it ain't here love, no
G                Em   C   
'Cause it ain't here love,
G         Em   C        G
And it just breaks my heart

If I Loved You

Verse:
C
I found a good woman, I found a job that pays
G
The tide comes in, I watch it all wash away
Am
But I’m keeping it steady, that’s just how I was raised
G
Head held up walking tall into each breaking wave

Pre-Chorus
                Dm                 Am          C       G
’Cause the devil’s in the details and he’s taking his toll
                Dm                      Am                     C                G
Sending good men down the foot trails of some lost lonely souls

Chorus:
                C       F              Am             G              F
And I say oh, oh                Rain don’t change the sun
Am              G                      C              F                 C
Jealous is the night when the morning comes,     But it always comes

Verse:
C
So I’m working the graveyard, I don’t sleep till it’s light
G
Ain’t calling in favors, I can’t swallow my pride
Am
And the bank’s on a mission, they want to read me my rights
G
But they ever show up around here, they’re going to be in for a fight

Pre-Chorus:
                Dm                  Am                 C              G
’Cause the devil’s in my hometown and I ain’t telling him no
                    Dm          Am                     C              G
’Cause it’s my family, it’s my love now, that I’m scared to let go

Chorus:
                C  F           Am             G              F
And I say oh, oh                Rain don’t change the sun
Am                      G              C              F
Jealous is the night when the morning comes
C                 F-C       F-C
But it always comes

Bridge:
C
Followed the track of my needle, Tried to be good to my people
                           F   Bb-F                             C    F-C
So why’s there no peace?                No break no relief

C
Can I be blamed if I’m angry?
C                                               F                         Fm
Can I be saved if I’m barely clinging to hope?  I’m clinging to hope

Chorus:
                C  F           Am             G              F
When I say oh, oh               Rain don’t change the sun
Am                      G              C              F                          C
Jealous is the night when the morning comes,    But it always comes

Ending:
C                       G/B
It always rains down on us
                Am                      G              F
And like an old dog lying by a new gravestone
                G    C
It’s still our home
                G - E7 - Am
It’s still our home

                Am              G              F
So if you ever feel like you are alone
                C-Cmaj7-C7   G                   C
After the night                 The morning comes

Hey hey hey. Don't you want to love me now baby?
              A                       E
Hey hey hey. Ain't you thinking 'bout me?
B         C#m       B                  E
I've been trying to get you off of my mind for some time now
       G#m    E
Ain't going well baby


E                               A
Ain't much room left baby 'tween these four walls
E                                 A     B
Our hearts have grown as heavy as cannonballs
C#m         B                   A        E
I tried to love you babe and I'm trying still
                                B       E
I've always loved you babe and I always will


The neighbor's dogs are chained, they don't bark no more
Nothing happens here that's worth yelling for
But there'd be music babe if we ever walked by
You know we'd wake the world if we only tried, and I say

CHORUS


Your window's open babe, but your doors are closed
You want a breeze to sweep in and shake your bones
But the sky is clear as day and the air is calm
So come on out and play I'm not here that long

E A E A E

'Cause the times are tough now babe, but they're ours to own
Make the most of it or just stay at home
I've come by once and I won't be back again
Aw, who am I kidding babe, won't you let me in?

CHORUS

Hey, Hey, Hey

It's still early, it's still more than I should
     C          G               C             F
I'm off to Carolina, I'm gonna wear my mama's boots
           C                      G             C   
We may be parted, but that don't cut us at the roots

              C               G                  C 
The color's brightest just before the branches thin
C              G                C           F
Yes I still remember that I am trying to begin

I met a new love and I'm growing into him

Shotgun fired in the firing hole

Verse
You'd make good money and come home early
And you'd kiss me and hold me each night
We would have children and they would be so beautiful
And we'd raise them and all would be right

Chorus 
But I don't love you, not like you need it
I don't love you, good as you are
And when I kiss you, I know that you can feel it

Verse
'Cause if I loved you, I could be happy
I would make you the light of my world
I wouldn't wait love, I'd marry you tomorrow
And we'd make love and I'd be your girl

Chorus 
But I don't love you, much as I want to
I don't love you, no, it would be a lie
And you deserve love, you're better than a good day
And you'll find it, but just not in my eyes
'Cause it ain't here love, no
And it just breaks my heart

Am

    Am                      A#
but all that a stranger would see
        Dm           Gm               C     
is one girl swaying alone stroking her cheek

[Chorus]

      F         Am            Dm 
They say, "you're a little much for me

And then they are bored of me
             
                    F
I know that its exciting
                     Am
running through the night but
              Dm                Am
every perfect summer's eating me alive
            A#    Dm

Gm          C
Better on my own

[Chorus]

You're all gonna watch me disappear into the sun

We never spoke a word, but every thought she had 
                         G     A Asus A
I heard from across the room 
             D                               Bm7
If we were standin' face to face I couldn't find the words 
               G               A Asus A
To say give me one more move 
        G              A             G                   A
I don't even know her name, I guess foolish pride's to blame


Chorus 
          D                        D7
Now, I'm fallin' in love as she's walkin' away
        Bm7                 F#              G                    A
And my heart won't tell my mind to tell my mouth what it should say
 D                                  D7
May have lost this battle, live to fight another day
        Bm7 A   G                              Gm
Now I'm fallin' in love as she's walkin' away

Verse 2
          D                           Bm7
Wise man next to me did say 'bout the one that got away
        G                    A
Son, I missed my chance 
           D                            Bm7
Don't you let regret take place of the dreams you have to chase
     G               A
Ask her to dance, go on, son
           G                 A              G                  A
You might fall down on your face, roll the dice and have some faith


Chorus

Don't be fallin' in love as she's walkin' away

When your heart won't tell your mind to tell your mouth what it should say
 D                                  D7
May have lost this battle, live to fight another day
         Bm7 A   G                               Gm

Am                              E
There are children standing here,
                              G
Arms outstretched into the sky,
                          D
Tears drying on their face.
              Am
He has been here.
                          E
Brothers lie in shallow graves.
                           G
Fathers lost without a trace.
                           D
A nation blind to their disgrace,
                        Am
Since he's been here.
                    E
And I see no bravery,
 G                  D
No bravery in your eyes anymore.

Only sadness.

(Continue the same chord progression)

Houses burnt beyond repair.
The smell of death is in the air.
A woman weeping in despair says,
He has been here.
Tracer lighting up the sky.
It's another families' turn to die.
A child afraid to even cry out says,
He has been here.

And I see no bravery,
No bravery in your eyes anymore.
Only sadness.

There are children standing here,
Arms outstretched into the sky,
But no one asks the question why,
He has been here.
Old men kneel to accept their fate.
Wives and daughters cut and raped.
A generation drenched in hate.
Says, he has been here.

And I see no bravery,
No bravery in your eyes anymore.
Only sadness.
