Your love is my rest
(written by John Hiatt)
INTRO:(E) –(C#m) – (G#m) – (B)
(E) –(C#m) – (G#m) – (B)
(E) These are the words that (C#m) cry out of me in the night (G#m)---(B)
(E) Like a buffalo herd from a (C#m) shotgun blast scattered in flight (G#m) (G#)
(A)I got a one track mind
Going down a (E) one train line
Living on (B) dreams half the time
Going (E) west (E7)
(A) I gotta pick up speed
Just to get (E) what I need
The end of the (B) line guaranteed
Your love is my (E) rest (B)
(E) The coal catches fire and I’m (C#m) down the wire in a flash (G#m)---(B)
(E) That big old smokestack is (C#m) belching out black smoke and ash (G#m) (G#)
(A) So sad to think of
Hurting the (E) one you love
But surely that’s (B) what leaving does
You would know (E) best (E7)
(A)I gotta pick up speed
Just to get (E) what I need
The end of the (B) line guaranteed
Your love is my (E) rest
(B) Your love is my (E) rest
Solo section
(E) –(C#m) – (G#m) – (B)
(E) –(C#m) – (G#m) – (G#)
(A) – (E) – (B)- (E) – (E7)
(A) – (E) – (B)- (E) –(B)
(E) I stand in the land of (C#m) Custer’s last stand and I grin (G#m)---(B)
(E) So this is where old (C#m) yellow-hair’s ghost-dance begins (G#m) (G#)
(A) I got the blood on my hands
Can’t even (E) live where I stand
I’m just a (B) travelling man
Cursed or (E) blessed (E7)
(A) I gotta pick up speed
Just to get (E) what I need
The end of the (B) line guaranteed
Your love is my (E) rest (B)
(A) I gotta pick up speed
Just to get (E) what I need
The end of the (B) line guaranteed
Your love is my (E) rest (B)
Your love is my rest (E)
(B) Your love is my rest (E)
