Version 1From 'Song For Our Daughter' (2020) Worked out quickly at the piano. Not sure about the Bbdims; interchangeable with the Dbms. Just vibe it. [Intro] E E/A E/B D A [Verse 1] E E/A E/B D A You took out that money that your momma had saved Ab Dbm Dbm7 Bbdim She told me she kept it for running away E/B B Oh my, fortunes can change [Verse 2] E E/A E/B D A You've picked up some tricks that you learnt on your way Ab Dbm Dbm7 Dbm For fear you'd be lonely if you never change E/B B Oh my, you lost your faith [Verse 3] E E/A E/B D A We landed on rocks and that's partly to blame Ab Dbm Dbm7 Bbdim We wandered the landscape in this unbearable pain E/B B Oh my, your fortune can change E E/A E/B D A [Verse 4] E E/A E/B D A At least we agree that we've wasted our time Ab Dbm Dbm7 Dbm Bbdim We'll give up the hope that we'll meet down the line E/B B Better off measured in coffee than wine E E/A E/B D A [Verse 5] E E/A E/B D A I think on it fondly now the truth can be told Ab Dbm Dbm7 Bbdim Some love is ancient and it lives on in your soul E/B B A fortune that never grows old E E/A E/B D A [Verse 6] E E/A E/B D A You spent all that money that your momma had saved Ab Ab7 Dbm Dbm7 Dbm Told me she kept it for running away Ab Ab7 Dbm Dbm7 Dbm Never quite found the right way to say Ab Ab7 Dbm Dbm7 Bbdim I'm sorry, my darling, my mind it has been changed E/B B Release me from this unbearable pain E E/A E/B D A [Verse 7] E E/A E/B D A And so ends a story I had hoped to change Ab Dbm Dbm7 Bbdim I had to release us from this unbearable pain E/B B And promise we won't come here again [Outro] E E/A E/B D A Ab Ab7 Dbm Dbm7 Dbm E/B B E
