Em Cadd9 D
The wind has come to take me down a notch,
Cadd9 Em
A peg, or a level or two
Cadd9
The swollen moon has got
D Cadd9
Her sights set on me too
Em Cadd9 D
The devil sun gonna take me higher
Cadd9 Em
Higher than I ever been before
Cadd9
I told my mama, no
D Cadd9
I can’t take no more
Em Cadd9 D Cadd9
I can’t take no more
Em Cadd9 D
The wind has come to take me down
Cadd9 Em
To the empty farm where I grew up on the land
Cadd9 D
I built this childhood for a boy
Cadd9
With my own two hands
Em Cadd9 D
I look around, them bony trees
Cadd9 Em
And sunken cows, there’s almost snow
Cadd9
Nobody knows nothing
D Cadd9 Em Cadd9 D Cadd9
Except what me and the crow do know
D G Cadd9
Who am I to change my life?
D G Cadd9
Who am I to fuck with form?
D G Cadd9
Who am I to weather a storm?
Cadd9 D Cadd9
But I go slow
Cadd9 D Cadd9
I said goodbye to everyone I know
Cadd9 D Cadd9
And one morning I awoke
D
And I was this guy named Joe
Em Cadd9 D
The wind has come to take me down to the field
Cadd9 Em
To dream by the light of the moon
Cadd9 D
No, there ain’t no coming home,
Cadd9 Em
No going back, skipping June
Em Cadd9 D
I sit by the water down by the freeway
Cadd9 Em
The cotton is hot and the corn is high
Cadd9
Don’t know what I’m going to do
D Cadd9
With myself tonight
D G Cadd9
Who am I to change my name?
D G Cadd9
Some things will always stay the same
D G Cadd9
There really ain’t no one to blame
D G Cadd9
Can’t expect nobody to live in that pain
Cadd9 D Cadd9
But I know you miss me so
Cadd9 D Cadd9
I said goodbye to everyone I know
Cadd9 D Cadd9
And one morning I awoke
D
And I was this guy named Joe...
