Song: Space City
Album: A Blessing and a Curse
Tuning Down One Step (key of C)
Intro: D, G, A, G, D
D G
If I could have one wish right now
A G D
I'd be about as half as tough as I pretend I am
D G
Then I wouldn't care how empty this old house feels
A G D
I could take her things and take them far away from here
I could make sure no dirt ever got on her name
Cause looking at that stone wouldn't bring me so much pain
I could go into town wearing my finest clothes
I could turn these tears into blood and make it run ice cold
G A Bm A
Space City's one hour up the road from me
G A Bm
G
One hour away from as close to the moon as anybody down here is ever gonna be
A Bm A
G
And somewhere beyond that big white light is where my heart is gone
A D
And somewhere she's wondering what's taking me so long
My hands are as good to me as they've ever been
And I ain't ashamed of anything my hands ever did
But sometimes the words I used were as hard as my fist
She had the strength of a man and the heart of a child I guess
