East Nashville Easter Cifras

Tabbed by AJ C.
 
Key: A Minor
 
Intro:
 
G     F     C     G (several times)
 
Verse 1:
G                F          C       G
Engine's running hot
 
G                    F      C       G
But now it's burnin' down
 
G                       F                C     G
Everyone says that this is going well
 
G              F             C      G
But I can hear every sound
 
Four gray walls
Make it all seem right
But everything looks wrong
In these cheap hotel lights
 
Chorus:
 
C                  G
Going up and down
 
C             G
Down and out
 
 
Cheap cologne and expensive perfume
I've never seen so many lost souls in my life
Air so thick, so busy and loud
One crazy young man standing out in the crowd
 
[ Chorus ]
 
G     F     C     G  (A little faster this time)
 
One of these days when the sun comes up and I'm tossin' and turnin' alone
I'm gonna pull myself up outta this state
I'm gonna make everything seem alright, alright
Know how it feels with the sun in my eyes, still that heartbroken wind's at my door
One of these days I'm gonna wreck myself and this engine won't run no more, no more
 
[ Chorus (x2) ]
