No chord
I was mending fences I was kneedeep in the mud
C Dm
I was dying of suspense, my knuckles caked in blood
C
Fifty feet behing me he was heaving in despair
Dm
he was pawing at the ground
C
I turned to meet his stare
Dm
now tell me where were you
C
when the day was through?
Bb
Little darling where'd you come from?
F
Little darling where'd you come from?
Chorus:
F
I want you to lie to me lie to me
Dm
I want you to lie to me lie to me
Bb
I know that I said what I said before
G
but I'm picking up the pieces
C
of the pages that I tore up
Verse 2:
I have turned to ice and I have seen the very best
I thought she'd never stop her crying; clawing at my chest
An hour back and forth just to tell me she's in pain
Girl why are you screaming; don't you know I know my name?
Now tell me where were you when the storm broke loose?
Little darling where'd you come from?
Little darling where'd you come from?
Chorus
Verse 3:
We have travelled back to where the sky and earth converge
and we have squandered our last dollar just to play this lonesome dirge
It's coffee every morning and tequila every night
We drain the hourglass waiting on you to start the fire
but that isn't you; that just isn't you
Little darling where'd you come from?
Little darling where'd you come from?
Chorus
C
And if you're coming back around
Dm
you're coming back in spades
C
and I can't be the one to take the blame
Dm
so darling tell me what it is?
C
Just tell me what it is?
Dm
Little Darling
