The Sweet Love That You Give (sure Goes A Long, Long Way) Lyrics & Chords By Steve Forbert

(capo III)
D F
Well, the road seems so long before me, I'm feeling confused and
C A D
hungry, dark clouds are blocking moonlight -- time is sleepin road
F C
signs are all against me, daybreak sorta seems to take forever cars
A
pass and put me down, I'm tired and freezing
D G D G D
*Well I'll find you and I'll hold youin my memory and once again
G D G D G
I'm living in those harmonies, the sweet love that you give sure
G D DCG D, G, D, G
goes a long long way and I, I, won't forget it*
A F
I'm trying to be an honest injun, slow walking down a noisy
C A D
sidewalk, cruel words from rowdy cowboys here in boomtown seems
F
everybody's shooting six-guns I'm sick of trying to please 'em all I
C A
heard tell that it can't be done and I don't deny it
RPT *
D F
train coming rolling down the track now, click clack and I can't go
C A
back now, hot kettle on your mama's stove and I've ...heard it
D F
whistle I don't wanna see no fortune teller, I'd rather do without
C A
prediction I'll see it when it's all around me, hey, what's the
hurry? *
