Stockholm
Jason Isbell
Capo: 2nd fret
[Intro]
G Gb/G Em D C
[Verse]
G C G C G Gb/G
I’ve heard love songs, make a Georgia man cry
Em D C
On the shoulder of somebody’s Saturday night
G C G C G Gb/G
Read the good book, studied it too
Em D C
But nothing prepared me for livin’ with you
[Chorus]
D Em C G
Lock me up tight in these shackles I wear
Em D C G
Tied up the keys in the folds of your hair
Em D C
And the difference with me is I used to not care
G C G
Stockholm let me go home
[Verse]
G C G C G Gb/G
Once a wise man to the ways of the world
Em D C
Now I’ve traded those lessons for faith in a girl
G C G C G Gb/G
Cross the ocean, thousand years from my home
Em D C
In this frozen old city of silver and stone
[Chorus]
D Em C G
Ships in the harbor and birds on the bluff
Em D C G
Don’t move an inch when their anger goes up
Em D C
And the difference in me is I’m falling in love
G C
Stockholm let me go home
G C G
Let me go home
[Verse]
Am C G D
And the night so long I used to pray for the daylight to come
Am C G D
Folks back home surely have called off the search and gone back to their own
[Bridge]
G Gb/G Em D G Gb/G Em D G Gb/G
[Chorus]
G Gb/G Em D C G
Let me go home….
