Capo 1

{C:Gmaj7 304430 Dmaj7 xx0222}
[Gmaj7]Under the [Dmaj7]cold 
blues [Gmaj7]stars 
you would just [F#]stroll 
a[B]round the yard
That's what happens 
to dreams 
when the life strains
And the child lays in you

When you got old you 
played guitar 
in a little town your 
favorite bar
Just blowing steam now 
the lights fade
And everyone's paid 
to see you

So did the farm steal 
your soul 
when the cornfields 
won't grow
Its time to leave now 
the heart bleeds
And the family leans on you

You were under the 
cold blue stars 
in another town your 
favorite bar
that's what happens 
to dreams 
when the life strains
And the child lays in you
