Verse
G D A Em
I wish I could cut back safe and sound
G D A Em
Maybe I would kick back, hang around
G D A Em
But lately I just chase my tail around
G D A Em
Hopin' that god posts bail
[Chorus]
D A
Bones in the yard
G D
They're down there way too far
D A G
It's like they were meant to stay a long, long time
G D A Em X2
I know they're mine
[Verse 2]
G D A Em
I wish I could lay flat like the ground
G D A Em
Maybe I would grow grass, make a town
G D A Em
But lately I just drive the people out
G D A Em
Hopin' that god might stay
[Chorus]
D A
Bones in the yard
G D
They're down there way too far
D A G
It's like they were meant to stay a long, long time
G D A Em X2
I know they're mine
[Verse 3]
G D A Em
I wish I was a brass band making sound
G D A Em
Shiny like an old car, strong and loud
G D A Em
But lately I just pass by like a cloud
G D A Em
Hopin' that god makes rain
[Chorus]
D A
Bones in the yard
G D
They're down there way too far
D A G
It's like they were meant to stay a long, long time
G D A Em X2
I know they're mine
[Verse 4]
G D A Em
I wish I could lay flat like the ground
G D A Em
Maybe I would grow grass, make a town
G D A Em
But lately I just drive the people out
G D A Em
Hopin' that god might stay
