Well I guess it would be nice
E
If I could touch your body
A
I know not everybody
E
Has got a body like you

But I've got to think twice
E
Before I give my heart away
A
And I know all the games you play
E
Because I play them too
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh but I
A E
Need some time off from that emotion
A E
Time to pick my heart up off the floor
A
Oh when that love comes down
E C#m
Without devotion
F#m
Well it takes a strong man baby
B
But I'm showing you the door
[Chorus]

Cause I gotta have faith, faith, faith

I gotta have faith

Because I gotta have faith, faith, faith
E
I gotta have faith, faith, faith
[Verse]
E
Baby
E
I know you're asking me to stay
A
Say please, please, please don't go away
E
You say I'm giving you the blues
E
Maybe
E
You mean every word you say
A
Can't help but think of yesterday
E
And another who tied me down to loverboy rules
[Pre-Chorus]
A
Before this river
E
Becomes an ocean
A E
Before you throw my heart back on the floor
A
Oh baby I reconsider
E C#m
My foolish notion

Well I need someone to hold me
B
But I'll wait for something more

Am D/A Am
Ooh, I bet you're wonderin' how I knew,
E D7
'Bout your plans to make me blue.
Am D/A Am
With some other guy you knew be-fore,
E D7
Between two of us guys, you know I loved you more.
[Bridge 1]
F#m D7
It took me by sur-prise, I must say,
Am D7
When I found out yester-day. Don't you know that;
[Chorus 1]
Am D7 Am
I heard it through the grape-vine;
D
Not much longer, would you be mine.
Am D7 Am
Oh, I heard it through the grape-vine;

Oh, I'm just about to lose my mind, honey, honey, yeah.

Not much longer would you be my baby).
[Verse 2]
Am D/A Am
I know a man ain't sup-posed to cry,
E D7
But these tears, I can't hold in-side.
Am D/A Am
Losing you, would end my life, you see,
E D7
'Cos you mean that much to me.
[Bridge 2]
F#m D7
You could have told me your-self,
Am D7
That you loved someone else.
[Chorus 2]
Am D7 Am
Instead, I heard it through the grape-vine;
D
Not much longer would you be mine.
Am D7 Am
Oh, I heard it through the grape-vine;
D7 (Am)
Oh, I'm just about to lose my mind, honey, honey, yeah.

People say; believe half of what you see,
E D7
Son, and none of what you hear.
Am
But I can't help, but be confused,
E D7
If it's true, please tell me, dear.
[Bridge 3]
F#m D7
Do you plan to let me go,
Am D7
For the other guy you loved be-fore?
[Chorus 3]
Am D7 Am
I heard it through the grape-vine;
D
Not much longer, would you be mine.
Am D7 Am
Oh, I heard it through the grape-vine;

Oh, I'm just about to lose my mind, honey, honey, yeah.

Family Tradition
[Verse]
A
Country music singers,
D
Have always been a real close family,
E7
But lately some of my kinfolk,
A
Have disowned a few others and me,
D
I guess it's because, I kinda' changed my direction,
E7 A
Lord I guess I went and broke their family tradition,
They get on me and wanna' know Hank,
[Chorus]
A
Why do ya drink?,
D
Hank why do you roll smoke?,
E7 A
And why must you live out the songs that you wrote?,
D
Over and over every body met my prediction,
E7 A
If I get stoned I'm just carrying on an old family tradition
[Verse]
I am very proud, of my daddy's name,
Although his kind of music and mine ain't exactly the same,
Stop and think it over, put yourself in my position,
If I get stoned and sing all night long it's a family tradition,
So don't ask me Hank,
[Chorus]
Why do ya drink?, Hank why do you roll smoke?,
And why must you live out the songs that you wrote?,
If I'm down in a honky tonk and some ol' slick tries to give me friction,
I'll say leave me alone I'm singin' all night long 'cause it's a,
family tradition
[Verse]
Lordy I have loved some ladies, and I have loved Jim Beam,
And they both tried to kill me, in 1973,
When that doctor asked me, son how'd ya get in this position?,
I said a hey sawbones I'm just a carrying on and ol' family tradition,
So don't ask me Hank,
[Outro]
Why do ya drink?, Hank why do you roll smoke?,
And why must you live out the songs that you wrote?,
Stop and think it over, try to put yourself in my unique position,
If I get stoned and sing all night long it's a family tradition.
Semi-Charmed Life

Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo-doo
D
Doo-doo-doo
[Verse 1]
A
I'm packed and I'm holding, I'm smiling,
E Esus4 D
She's living, she's golden, she lives for me
She says she lives for me
A E Esus4
Ovation her own motivation
D A
She comes around and she goes down on me
E Esus4
And I make her smile like a drug for you
D
Do ever what you want to do
A
Coming over you
E Esus4
Keep on smiling what we go through
D
One stop to the rhythm that divides you
[Pre-Chorus]
A E Esus4 D
And I speak to you like the chorus to the verse
A
Chop another line like a coda with a curse
E Esus4 D
Come on like a freak show takes the stage
We give them the games we play she said
[Chorus 1]
A E Esus4 D
I want something else
A
To get me through this
E Esus4 D
Semi-charmed kind of life baby, baby
A E Esus4 D
I want something else, I'm not listening
A E Esus4 D
when you say good---bye

[Verse 2]
A
The sky it was gold, it was rose
E Esus4 D
I was taking sips of it through my nose
And I wish I could get back there
A
Some place back there
E Esus4
Smiling in the pictures you would take
D
Doing crystal meth will lift
you up until you break
A E
It won't stop I won't come down
Esus4 D
I keep stock with a tick-tock
rhythm, a bump for the drop
A
And then I bumped up
E Esus4
I took the hit that I was given
D
Then I bumped again
Then I bumped again, said
[Pre-Chorus]
E D
How do I get back there to
E
The place where I
D
fell asleep inside you?
E D
How do I get myself back to
E
The place where you said
[Chorus 1]
A E Esus4 D
I want something else
A
To get me through this
E Esus4 D
Semi-charmed kind of life baby, baby
A E Esus4 D
I want something else, I'm not listening
A E Esus4 D
when you say Good---bye
[Verse 3]
A E
I believe in the sand
D
beneath my toes
The beach gives a feeling
A
An earthy feeling
E
I believe in the
D
faith that grows
And the four right
A E Esus4
chords can make me cry
D
When I'm with you I
A
feel like I could die
And that would be
E Esus4 D
all right, all right
[Bridge]
E
and when the plane came in
D E
She said she was crashing
D
The velvet it rips in
E
the city we tripped
D
On the urge to feel alive
A
But now I'm struggling
to survive
E
Those days you were wearing
D
That velvet dress
E
You're the priestess
D
I must confess
E
Those little red panties
D
They pass the test
A (hold)
Slide up around the belly face down on the mattress
E D
One
E D
And you hold me
E D
and we're broken
A
Still it's all that I
wanna do just a little now
[Verse 4]
A E
Feel myself head
Esus4 D
made of the ground
I'm scared I'm not coming
A E Esus4 D
down, no no, and I won't
A E Esus4
run for my life
D
She's got her jaws now
A
locked down in a smile
E Esus4 D
But nothing is alright, alright
[Chorus 2]
A Esus4 D
I want something else
A Esus4
To get me through this
D
life, baby
A Esus4 D
I want something else
I'm not listening
A Esus4 D A/C# Bm

Torn
[Verse 1]
A C#m
I thought I saw a man brought to life
D
He was warm, he came around like he was dignified
D
He showed me what it was to cry
A C#m
Well you couldn't be that man I adored
C#m
You don't seem to know
D
Don't seem to care what your heart is for
D
But I don't know him anymore
[Pre Chorus 1]
F#m
There's nothing where he used to lie
E
My conversation has run dry
C#m
That's what's going on
E
Nothing's fine
A
I'm torn
[Chorus 1]
(A) E F#m
I'm all out of faith, this is how I feel
D A
I'm cold and I am shamed, lying naked on the floor
E F#m
Illusion never changed, into something real
D A
I'm wide awake and I can see, the perfect sky is torn
E F#m (E) D
You're a little late, I'm already torn
[Verse 2]
A C#m
So I guess the fortune teller's right
D
I should have seen just what was there and not some holy light
D
But you crawl beneath my veins and now
[Pre Chorus 2]
F#m
I don't care, I have no luck
E
I don't miss it all that much
C#m
There's just so many things
E
That I can't touch
A
I'm torn
[Chorus 2]
(A) E F#m
I'm all out of faith, this is how I feel
D A
I'm cold and I am shamed, lying naked on the floor
E F#m
Illusion never changed, into something real

I'm wide awake and I can see, the perfect sky is torn

You're a little late, I'm already torn
[Bridge]
F#m (E) D F#m A E
Torn… Ooooh… Hoo ooooh… Ooooh
[Pre Chorus 3]
F#m
There's nothing where he used to lie
E
My inspiration has run dry
C#m
That's what's going on
E
Nothing's right
A
I'm torn
[Chorus 3]
A E F#m
I'm all out of faith, this is how I feel
D A
I'm cold and I am shamed, lying naked on the floor
E F#m
Illusion never changed, into something real
D A
I'm wide awake and I can see, the perfect sky is torn
E F#m
I'm all out of faith, this is how I feel
D A
I'm cold and I am shamed, bound and broken on the floor
E F#m (E) D
You're a little late, I'm already torn
[Outro]

Torn…
