Drive-by Truckers - SPACE CITY

Tune guitar down on full step (Key Of C)

Into D G A G D

D                              G
If I could have one wish right now
A                                  G         D 
I'd be about as half as tough as I pretend I am
D                                       G 
Then I wouldn't care how empty this old house feels
A                                         G         D 
I could take her things and take them far away from here


I could make sure no dirt ever got on her name
Cause looking at that stone wouldn't bring me so much pain
I could go into town wearing my finest clothes
I could turn these tears into blood and make it run ice cold


G            A               Bm            A
Space City's one hour up the road from me
G         A                       Bm                    A                  G
One hour away from as close to the moon as anybody down here is ever gonna be
              A                     Bm                A            G
And somewhere beyond that big white light is where my heart is gone
                    A                       D
And somewhere she's wondering what's taking me so long

My hands are as good to me as they've ever been
And I ain't ashamed of anything my hands ever did
But sometimes the words I used were as hard as my fist
She had the strength of a man and the heart of a child I guess
