From the album: Beneath This Gruff Exterior
G
I sit all day staring at a leaf.
Em
I know that my time here is brief.
Am
I'd like to get some details down.
C
Before I move on to another town.
G
I met a man he lost both arms.
Em
He got 'em cought up in her charms.
Am
She took the kids and the color TV.
C
He said "I wish she'd taken the rest of me."
(CHORUS)
G
This travelin' life well it aint no good.
Em
I'd quit it honey oh if I could.
Am
A puzzle to me why I even care.
C
The missing pieces are everywhere.
G/Em
G
He drove to dixie to hush his mouth.
Em
She started talkin' like to wore him out.
Am
They found love beneath the southern stars.
C
And some bruises and some scars.
G
He sees her on that back porch swing.
Em
And I believe he would do anything.
Am
Stand all night in the pourin' rain.
C
To wash her memory from her brain.
REPEAT CHORUS
G
A false move here, a stumble there.
Em
A box of letters and a lock of hair.
Am
That's all that's left when I turn out the light.
C
I count the missing pieces every night.
CHORUS 2x
