Calling Baton Rouge

Troyal Garth Brooks (born February 7, 1962 in Tulsa, Oklahoma) is an American country music singer songwriter and charity director.  Brooks was a phenomenal musical force in the 1990s. He had his chart breakthrough in 1989, having come apparently from nowhere, and was an immediate commercial success. Lacking the tall and lanky physical appearance typical of some male country stars, he successfully integrated pop and rock elements into his recordings and live performances.

G                             Am
This old highway's getting longer
D            C              G      D
Seems there ain't no end in sight
G
To sleep would be best
           Am
But I just can't afford to rest
D                  C            G      D
I gotta ride in Denver tomorrow night
G                               Am
I called the house, but no one answered
D                   C                 G    D
For the last two weeks no one's been home
G
I guess she's through with me
             Am
To tell the truth, I just can't see
       D               C             G
What's kept a woman holding on this long

(CHORUS)
         C
And the white line's getting longer
         G                Em
And the saddle's getting cold
        C                  D             G
Now I'm much too young to feel this damn old
        C                             G                Em
All my cards are on the table with no ace left in the hole
        C                  D             G
Now I'm much too young to feel this damn old

    G                      Am
The competition's getting younger
         D           C               G     D
Tougher broncs, you know I can't recall
            G
A worn out tape of Chris LeDoux
       Am
Lonely women and bad booze
         D           C                  G
Seem to be the only friends I've left at all.

Much Too Young (to Feel This Damn Old)

Intro: F x4


      F                        F
I was feeling the blues, I was watching the news 
          F                C 
When this fella comes on T.V. 
        C                     C
He said I'm telling you, that science has proved 
     C                            F 
That heartaches are healed by the sea 
Bb                    Bb
That got me going without even knowing 
  F                         Bb 
I packed right up and drove down 
    Bb                   F 
Now I'm on a roll and I swear in my soul 
  C                             F 
Tonight I'm going to paint this town 


   F         F
So bring me, two pina coladas
       F             C
I want one for each hand 
          C
Let's set sail with Captain Morgan 
       C               F 
Oh and never leave dry land 
      Bb                            F                  Bb 
Hey troubles I've forgot them, I've buried them in the sand 
            Bb          F 
So bring me two pina coladas 
             C                       F 
She said goodbye to her good timing man 
 

       F                        F
Oh now I've got to say that the wind and the waves 
        F                    C 
And the moon winking down at me 
C 
Eases my mind by leaving behind 
    C                          F 
The heartaches that love often brings 
    Bb                    Bb
Now I've got a smile that goes on for miles 
F                      Bb 
With no inclination to roam 
    Bb                     F 
And I've got to say that I think I ought to stay 
F                                C         F 
Cause it's just feeling more and more like home 
 

   F         F
So bring me, two pina coladas
             F             C
I gotta have one for each hand 
          C
Let's set sail with Captain Morgan

Oh and never leave dry land

She said goodbye to her good timing man 


F                       F
Bring, bring, bring me, two pina coladas

D
folks call me a maverick, guess i ain't too diplomatic,
D        C              G          D
i just never been the kind to go along.
D
avoiding confrontation for the sake of conformation
D          C               G                A
and i'll admit i tend to sing a different song.

A         Bm                  A             G
but sometimes you just can't be afraid to wear a different hat.
       E7                                               A
If columbus had complied this ol' world might still be flat.

D                          F
nothing ventured, nothing gained.
       G                C    G           D
sometimes you've got to go against the grain.


verse 2: Repeat the top
well, i have been accused of making my own rules.
there must be rebel blood just a-runnin' through my veins.
but i ain't no hypocrite, what you see is what you get.
and that's the only way i know to play the game.

old noah took much ridicule building his great arc.
but after 40 days and 40 nights, he was looking pretty smart.

sometimes its best to brave the wind and rain.
by havin' the strength to go against the grain.

verse 3:

 D            E
well there's more folks than a few who share my point of few.
              D                  A             E
but they're worried if they're gonna sink or swim.
 E
they'd like to buck the system, but the deck is stacked against them.
                 D              A            B
and they're a little scared to go out on a limb.


               C#m          B                     A
but if you're gonna make a difference, if you're gonna leave your mark.
            F#7                                                      B
you can't follow like a bunch of sheep, you've gotta listen to your heart.


E                           G
go bustin' in like ol' john wayne.
     A                   D    A        E
sometimes you've got to go against the grain.


E                        G
nothing ventured nothing gained,
     A                   D     A        E
sometimes you've got to go against the grain.

2. wasn't     I the king?

And now, I'm glad I didn't know the way it all would end

                     C    D

    C                         D                               Bm
Our lives, are better left to chance. I could have missed the pain

                    C    D   G

If tomorrow never comes

Intro:  G   Am7

Verse:
G                 Am7
Sometimes late at night
D                         Am7  G
I lie awake and watch her sleeping
      D                Am7
She's lost in peaceful dreams
          D                  C                G  Am7 G 
So I turn out the lights and lay there in the dark
G                       Am7
And the thought crosses my mind
D                         G
If I never wake up in the morning
D              Am7             D
Would she ever doubt the way I feel
 C              G 
About her in my heart

Chorus:
                  C
If tomorrow never comes
                         G
Will she know how much I loved her
                   D      Am7            D  
Did I try in every way to show her every day
     C             G
That she's my only one
                              C 
And if my time on earth were through
                      D   Em
And she must face the world without me
                              Am7
Is the love I gave her in the past  
                   D
Gonna be enough to last
                   G 
If tomorrow never comes

'Cause I've lost loved ones in my life
Who never knew how much I loved them
Now I live with the regret
That my true feelings for them never were revealed
So I made a promise to myself
To say each day how much she means to me
And avoid that circumstance
Where there's no second chance to tell her how I feel

Chorus:
                              Am7
So tell that someone that you love
                          D
Just what you're thinking of
                  C H Am7 G
If tomorrow never comes

E7 
Papa drove a truck nearly all his life
            A7 
You know it drove mama crazy being a trucker's wife
    B7 
The part she couldn't handle was the being alone
            C                               B7 
I guess she needed more to hold than just a telephone
E7          
Papa called mama each & every night
        A7          
Just to ask her how she was, and if us kids were alright
B7          
Mama would wait for that call to come in
         C                         B          E   E - F# - G Ab - A
But when daddy'd hang up,  she was gone again

Mama was a looker,  Lord how she shined
E7
Papa was a good'n,  but the jealous kind
A7                                A7-A7-A7-A7-A7-A7
Papa loved mama, mama loved men
Em                         B7             E7
Mama's in the graveyard,  papa's in the pen


E7
Well it was bound to happen,  one night it did
A7
Papa came home, when it was just us kids
   B7
He had a dozen roses, and a bottle of wine,
          C7                               B7
If he was looking to surprise us,  he was doing fine
  E7
I heard him cry for mama up and down the hall
       A7
Then I heard a bottle break against the bedroom wall
     B7
That olâ diesel engine made an eeerie sound
          C                        B7    E7    E7 - F# - G Ab - A
When papa fired it up, and  headed into town

CHORUS 2:
        A7
Oh, the picture in the paper showed the scene real well
E7
Papa's rig was buried in the local motel
A7                                         A7-A7-A7-A7-A7-A7
Desk clerk said he saw it all real clear
         E7                          B7        E7     E7  F  F# - G  Ab - A
He never hit the brakes, and he was shifting gears

Papa Loved Mama

D                     D/F#          G              D
Pushin' horns weren't easy like the movies said it was
                                          A7sus4             A7
And I don't recall no dance hall girls or hotel rooms with rugs
           D                 D/F#           G               D
You worked hot and tired and nasty rode you pony's head too low
                              A7                    G
There were all the nights you couldn't sleep, cause it was too damn cold               
                D          A7               D   Dsus   Dsus2   D
And you'd sing, Strawberry Roan and Little Joe

Verse 2
D                        D/F#          G              D
Like the time we hit the river and the rains began to fall
                                         A7sus4                A7
And the water was rising so damn fast we thought it'd drown us all
   D             D/F#                G                 D
We lost a lot of steers that day and four or five good mounts
                           A7        G
But when all the boys rode into camp we knew that's what counts
             D            A7              D      Dsus   Dsus2   D
And we sang, Yippie Ti Yi Yay and Amazing Grace


       Bm                A                      G          D
Or the night they broke behind us and then they took us by surprise
  Bm               A                 A7sus4            A7
I whistled out the Bonner I seen the terror in his eyes
       D                D/F#                   G
And he rode for all his horse would ride and I know he done his best
    D               A7            G 
But he crossed over Jordan ridin' Dunny to his death
             D               A7                     D      Dsus   Dsus2   D
And we sang, Bringin' in the Sheaves and the Rugged Cross

Verse 3
   D                 D/F#            G             D
So when you see that cowboy he's not ragged by his choice
                                            Asus7          A7
He never meant to bow them legs or put that gravel in his voice

He's just chasin' what he really loves and what's burning in his soul
                    A7                 G
Wishin' to God that he'd been born and hundred years ago
               D          A7                 D   Dsus   Dsus2   D
Still singin', Strawberry Roan and Little Joe

Wrapped Up In You

According to the The Dance Songfacts, the inspiration for the song was a scene from the movie Peggy Sue Got Married. Co-writer Tony Arata writes on his website, &quot;Kathleen Turner discovers she can't alter one aspect of her past without affecting the rest. No one gets to pick their memories, thankfully.&quot;

into the arms of the girl that I love
                Am 
the only love I havent screwed up

        Dm           Gm               C     
is one girl swaying alone stroking her cheek

[Chorus]

      F         Am            Dm 
They say, "you're a little much for me

I know that its exciting
                     Am
running through the night but
              Dm                Am

And you follow me around, and you're asking for the time

Your asking what I found 
                         A
think I'm gonna rob you blind

maybe it's the tattoo on my arm
        E
that I drew while I was bored waiting tables in new york
Fm                                            D
 a  heart and two flowers intertwined with a vine

Up Here

[Verse 1]
 G                              D
You like New York City in the daytime
 Bm                   A
I like New York City in the nighttime
 G                          D
You say you like sleeping with the air off
Bm                  A
I don't, I need it on
G                  D
You like the light coming through the windows
 Bm                      A
I sleep late, so I just keep 'em all closed
G                  D
You ignore the music on the radio
Bm                 A
I don't, I sing-a-long


[Pre-Chorus]
G               D        Bm             A
I don't ask for you to change, baby no no no

And you don't ask for me to change

N.C.                     D
Tell me how we're not alike
       Bm               A
But we work so well and we don't even know why
G              D
Funny how the stars crossed right
       Bm                   A
'Cause we work so well and we don't even know why
 G              D
You can call it fire and ice
    Bm                  A
But we work so well and we don't even know why
G              D
We don't even know why, no no

       Bm               A

'Cause we work so well and we don't even know why

G                          D
Somehow we end up on the same side
Bm                          A
And you wouldn't think that we'd be alright
G                      D            Bm             A
Even our eyes are different colors, but we see fine

Somehow we end up on the same side (up on the same side)
Bm                            A
And you wouldn't think that we'd be alright

Verse 1
    D                              Bm7
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

Son, I missed my chance

Don't you let regret take place of the dreams you have to chase

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

When your heart won't tell your mind to tell your mouth what it should say

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.
