(Capo on 4)

(Intro.)
None

(Verse)
I felt you (C)calling, I saw you (Em)start
From the (Am)old town movies to the (G)bars on the boule-(F)vard
The bells were (C)ringing for a gypsy's soul (Em)
Straight to the (Am)smart mouth little (G)girl from Semi-(F)nal

(Verse)
All you (C)outlaws and the Opry (G)queens
They (Am)wrapped those golden (G)arms around the baby of the (F)family
To stand be-(Am)side you then was more than e-(G)nough
I always was (F) and always will be looking up (F)

(Chorus)
So gather 喪ound (C) now, it's time to (G)sing
It's (Am)bittersweet but it's a (G)hell of a silver (F)lining
I tell the same ol' (C)stories, y'all get your (G)wings
And I get (Am)better every (G)time I kiss a (F)weathered cheek
And watchin' doves (C)fly, sooner than (G)me
I guess I'm (F)ready, (G)ready as I'll never (C)be

(Verse)
The (C)snow don't fall on the Willcox, and the (G)whippoorwill don't lie
Are the (Am)two things you can count (G)on
And if you blink (F) you're going to miss it twice
Even (C)if I saw it coming, even (C/Bb)if I wanted to
You're just (Am)going to the (G)one place left that (F)I can't follow you

(Chorus)
So gather (C)'round now, it's time to (G)sing
It's (Am)bittersweet but it's a (G)hell of a silver (F)lining
I tell the same ol' (C)stories, y'all get your (G) wings
And I get (Am)better every (G)time, but I don't (D)know

(Break)
Ain't no (F)debt to repay, even if your (G)light years away
May the (E7)circle be unbroken, let it (Am)breathe through ya
So (G)one sweet (D)day, woah, happy (F)days

(Chorus)
Gather池ound (C) now, it's time to sing (G)
It's (Am)bittersweet but it's a (G)hell of a silver (F)lining
I tell the same ol' (C)stories, y'all get your (G)wings
(Am) And (G)I get (Am)better every (G)time I kiss a (F)weathered cheek
And (F)watchin' doves (C) fly, sooner than (G)me
I guess I'm (E)ready, ready as I'll never (Am)be (G) (F)
I'm (G)ready as I'll never be  (C) - - - - -
