Verse 1
Am F C
Mother Maybelle's in a quiet hell, I hear a gun and a heart and slay bells
Am F
I'd say things have changed quite a bit
C
Since I was young and mother didn't give a shhh
Am F C
I can't be saved it's too late but with a little help I might concentrate
Am F C
Long enough to start believing just to make sure you’re still breathing
Chorus
G C F C
No time for the broken hearted, got to finish just what we started.
G C F C
The only promise to the poor departed, is that they wind up dead.
G C F C
Just as sure as holy violence, we start our songs in silence
G C F C
We’re all looking for a little guidance down the long road ahead
Int Am |F |C | ||x2
Verse 2
Am F
There's a cold breeze through city streets,
C
Blows leaves like dreams 'neath busy feet
Am F C
Then somewhere in an easy chair somebody's momma cry 'cause baby ain't there
Am F C
My baby's so lazy, like to sit around, drive me crazy.
Chorus
G C F C
No time for the broken hearted, got to finish just what we started.
G C F C
The only promise to the poor departed, is that they wind up dead.
G C F C
Just as sure as holy violence, we start our songs in silence
G C F C
We’re all looking for a little guidance down the long road ahead
