Empty Hearts by Josh Ritter
Capo I
Intro: D - D - Em - G (x2)
D A
So save all of your light
Bm F#m
For those who can't sleep at night
G D A
And who can't even sing to their shadows
D A
Oh they ride into town
Bm F#m
And they throw the shots down
G D A
And they save the last round for the windows
G D A
Singing don't let me into this year with an empty heart
A G
With an empty heart
G D A
Don't let me into this year with an empty heart
D A
I'm inside with my friends
Bm F#m
We build fires and pretend
G D A
That the night could just bend on forever
D A
While outside in the frost
Bm F#m
Are the wolves and the lost
G D A
And we sing to the dogs or whoever
G D A
Singing don't let me into this year with an empty heart
A G
With an empty heart
G D A
Don't let me into this year with an empty heart
(Bridge) Bm - F#m - Bm - F#m - G - D - A (x2)
D A
There's a friend that I have
Bm F#m
And for her I'll go back
G D A
You see all of these empties that I'm holding
D A
They're too much for a man
Bm F#m
Empty arms, empty hands
G D A
And she'll know me by the sound of my hoping
G D A
Singing don't let me into this year with an empty heart
A G
With an empty heart
G D A
Don't let me into this year with an empty heart.
