Intro: C C7 F Fm Am Am7 D9 F G

Verse:
C 
This heart of mine

Keeps decent time
C7
Though my ears may be weak
                            F
And my eyes may be all but blind
   Fm                        Am  Am7   D9  
I still have sense enough to feel
         F                      G
That I'm not much without you near


          C 
I've paid my dues

Loved one or two
     C7                               F
But still it keeps a boiling down to you
     Fm                        Am Am7   D9  
So choose to be my victory, or vice
          F                        G
Oh either way I still want you here tonight

Instrumental: C C7 F Fm Am Am7 D9 F G

Chorus:
Dm                E7             Dm
Heaven knows it's hard to find another
   Am              Am7                D9  
Oh hell knows it's got a home for folks like me
F
There will come a day
         G
When the earth will cease to spin
       F
You'll hold me close and say
   G
My god where have you been?

Verse:
           C 
I've been around, old Chinatown
C7                            F
Happily lost but oh so easily found
       Fm                          Am Am7   D9  
There counting the stars above the hill
                F                 G
'Neath some old moon, humming my tune
             C 
I'll see you soon

Biography

Shakey Graves, aka Alejandro Rose-Garcia from Austin, Texas, plays a gnarly composite of blues and folk as a one-man-band of epic sonic proportions. The sound emitted from his hollow body guitar, mildly distorted amp and suitcase drum belie the young singer’s lean frame. He fingerpicks while keeping time with a double-pedal kick drum, hitting a snare fitted into his suitcase drum and a tambourine fashioned to its side. And when he sings, Rose-Garcia unleashes an unearthly howl.
