Em A C D
[Verse 1]
Em B C G
I found a friend in you
Em B A D
Someone to call when my day was through
Em B C
But on this road it's clear
D# D
That nothing is precious
Em
And nothing comes cheap
A C D
In a time spent sucking on a thorn so deep
[Verse 2]
Em B C G
Big daddy on the road
Em B A D
The hardest hand that I've ever hold
Em B C D#
I don't know how long you can keep
D
Beating yourself up
Em A
And pleading with God for a good night's rest
C D
And a steady job
[Chorus]

And something said then thrown away into the breeze
[Verse 3]
Em B C G
The question on your lips
Em B A D
The burden of my innocence slips
Em B C
I'm searching night as is
D# D
I'm keeping my promise
Em
I won't feed the storm
A
I'm a canvas clean
C D
There's a baby born
[Verse 4]
Em B C G
I am a jungle gym
Em B A D
Remove your shoes and baby climb in
Em B C D#
I am a home for men like you
D Em
Who chew at the bit for a pony to ride
A C D
Til the day grows dim and tomorrow slides by
[Chorus]
G Bm F C
Something reminded me of a nice encounter Wednesday
D# A# F C
And something said then thrown away into the breeze
[Bridge]
G Bm
Darling I won't forget
F C
All the times we spoke of our regrets
D# A#
And walked back to the lives we left
F C
On days like these
[Outro]
Em B C G
I found a friend in you
Em B A D
Someone to call when my day was through
Em B C
But on this road it's clear
D# D
That nothing is precious
Em
And nothing comes cheap
A C D
In a time spent sucking on a thorn so deep
