Never Could
By The Great Divide

Tabbed: Cody Levrets with help from McClure, Paul Hagy, and Sonny.

INTRO: The intro riff...this is as close as I can it.

C F G F G C F C
Strum each chord once, sliding the F chord up two frets to the make G, then
play an open G chord at the end, then repeat again. I think McClure throws in a 
C9 somehow, but I can't get it.


Intro Riff X 4, and the riff is played at end of each of the verses, and at the end of the chorus.


C
Hey it's good to see you baby how long has it been
C
It always feels like yesterday when I come walking in
F
But there you are, behind the bar serving drinks
                      C  
And smiling with your eyes
G
But when you notice me 
  F                                                        C 
I feel that old familiar fire burning way down inside down inside

Last night I heard the roadhouse blues on my radio
Thought about that night at my place under candle glow
A bottle of wine lost track of time somehow we both wound up on the floor
And I was into wine and passion then, but you were into finding something 
more


CHORUS:
F                                                     C
You were always searching for the man I'm never gonna be
F                                                              C
And I was always chasing down the highway that led in front of me
G                                    F    
Well I hear you got a new man now, I hope he treats you good
G                          F                           C
I hope he's doing all them little things, that I never could

Sometimes reality don't live up to up to my dreams
This gypsy life with open roads ain't easy as it seems
So now and then, your back again, wondering if I ever should have gone
But the choices that we make in life we gotta live with, whether they're 
right or wrong

CHORUS

BRIDGE:
Dm            G
No matter how hard I try
F                G                     C  
It won't be long before I'm saying goodbye
