Capo 1: VERSE C Johnnie all your hundred songs F learned them on the guitar C played them in the mirror G pretended they were mine C Johnnie what a knack for words F each one cuts me deeper C strong enough to make you near G E7 when you're far away CHORUS Am B/G C Johnnie is your suitcase tight? F you say goodbye to no one C leave a mess of paper G E7 and make way for the coast Am B/G C Honey all your bridges burned F should you find your boots worn C I will patch your soles G if you swear you'll walk with me VERSE C Johnnie, I could be your queen F No more nights of long dreams C You could be the stronger man G To sleeps between these sheets C But never with your lips sewn shut F I can only do so much C Won't lift a finger G E7 'Til you show me where it hurts CHORUS Am B/G C Johnnie is your suitcase tight? F you say goodbye to no one C leave a mess of paper G E7 and make way for the coast Am B/G C Honey all your bridges burned F should you find your boots worn C I will patch your soles G if you swear you'll walk with me BRIDGE C F Gaug It's the way I'm gonna love you C F E7 It's the way I'm gonna love you Am It's the way I'm gonna love you Am/G# The only way I know to G D7 And I'll lay my candid loving on the line F Gaug C It's the way I'm gonna love you
