Bb Bmmaj11no5 Eb Bb
Oh, Lou- I'd like to let you know... that I do not feel welcome
Bb Bmmaj11no5 Eb Bb
All the birds, the trees, the falling snow, no they were not made for me
Bb Bmmaj11no5 Eb Bb
And all this is where her heart resides... we met in California
Bb Bmmaj11no5 Eb Bb
She saw cities, promise reaching through my eyes, and she turned her self away
Eb Bb
Well how I curse that western skyline
Eb Bb
And yet I thanked it for my start
Eb Gm Bb Eb E Bb
Oh Lou, though my dreams did not come true... no they only came apart
Bb Bmmaj11no5 Eb Bb
So I followed her here to Birmingham... where the soil is so much richer
Bb Bmmaj11no5 Eb Bb
And though my aching pride might guide my hand, she did not ask for me to come
Bb Bmmaj11no5 Eb Bb
So I wait for her all through the day, as if I wait for her surrender
Bb Bmmaj11no5 Eb Bb
And every time I get her to look my way, she says I'm not where I belong
Eb Bb
But I watch her father preach on Sundays
Eb Bb
And all the hymnals of my heart
Eb Gm Bb Eb E Bb
But oh Lou, no my dreams did not come true; no they only came apart
Dm Bb(I) F Bb Eb
Ohhhh, oh oh oh oh
Dm Bb(I) F Bb F
Ohhhh, oh oh oh oh
Dm Bb(I) F Bb Eb
Ohhhh, oh oh oh oh
Dm Bb(I) F Bb F
Ohhhh, oh oh oh oh
Bb Bmmaj11no5 Eb Bb
All the snow fall this time of year, it's not what Birmingham is used to
Bb Bmmaj11no5 Eb Bb
I get the feeling that I brought it here, and now I'm taking it away
Eb Bb
But let's share one more drink together
Eb Bb
Before I go reload my car
Eb Gm Bb Eb E Bb
An oh, Lou no my dreams did not come true- no they only came apart
Ohhhh, oh oh oh oh (Take me home…)
Ohhhh, oh oh oh oh
Ohhhh, oh oh oh oh
Ohhhh, oh oh oh oh
