Weatherbeaten Soul

	  		


         G           A             D 
She said don't worry baby when she left me 
         Em                           C              G               D 
You were alright on your own before I came along and made this happy home 
        G                       A               D              Bm 
And you can take that damned ol guitar, pack it up and hit the road 
      A                  G           D 
After all youre probably better off alone 


     G                A                  D 
So I grabbed that ol guitar and hit the highway 
          Em                            C                G              D 
It doesnt take too long to pack When an empty seat holds everything you own 
            G               A              D              Bm 
And I found comfort knowing with a moments notice I could roll 
      A                G          D 
After all I'm probably better off alone 


                  G 
And the cold wind blows 
G                               D 
Lightning fills the sky and the thunder rolls 
    A         G          A                G   
Her memory surrounds me, carves me like a stone 
     Em              G             D 
Like raindrops on my weatherbeaten soul
 


       G          A              D 
I was just past Arizona when she called me 
      Em                                C               G           D 
Her voice, it seemed to change as if it aged although it wasnt long ago 
         G                A              D                   Bm 
She said lately I've been thinking maybe you could come back home 
            A              G          D 
I told her maybe I'm just better off alone 

                  G 
And the cold wind blows 
G                               D 
Lightning fills the sky and the thunder rolls 
    A         G          A                G   
Her memory surrounds me, carves me like a stone 
     Em              G             D 
Like raindrops on my weatherbeaten soul 



          G              A                D 
Just like waves upon the cliffs along the ocean 
Em                           C               G               D 
Time goes by until the water changes rock to beaches made of sand 
            G                A                D             Bm 
And this ol heart can take a beatin just like mother nature planned 
       A            G               D 
I just hope it isnt more than I can stand 


                  G 
And the cold wind blows 
G                               D 
Lightning fills the sky and the thunder rolls 
    A         G          A                G   
Her memory surrounds me, carves me like a stone 
     Em              G             D 
Like raindrops on my weatherbeaten soul 



           Em              G             D 
Just like raindrops on my weatherbeaten soul
