Resting Place Chords

(ver. 1)
Bruce Hornsby
Intro:
| C G Em A C G A A | 2x


Verse:
C        G        Em
I'm on a long sojourn
C                G           Em
I'm sitting here shedding my skin
C                G        Em             A
Don't know about inside, ugly on the outside
C                        G                    Em
They're all messing with me for the shape I'm in


Bridge:
C            G           Em
I'm looking for a clean slate
C             G               Em
Just need to find a new mind state
C              G               
Hey, let's go looking for squirrels
Em                       A
Let's find something to do
C               G                  Em
I think she's shooting it right at you
                 A
Look down I said right at you


Chorus:
        C          G
And the hail falls hard
        Em            A
And the wind whips my face
          C           G           A         A 
And I'm a long, long way from anywhere real safe
         C                G
And the storm clouds are flying high
Em               A
Mud all over my face
          C          G            A
And I'm a long, long way from my resting place


| C G Em A C G A A | 2x


Verse:
C               G                 Em
Hey, let's duck down this side street
C           G              Em
Maybe no, nobody else will see
C           G     Em      A
Everybody sees us as big fat bastards
C                  G              Em
But I can just see you looking at me
C          G                    Em
Ever feel like a side-show attraction
C          G                   Em
Ever feel like a walking infraction
C            G       Em          A
Some people call me Tarzan in my big, big sweats
C               G
Don't know just what they mean
Em                  A
Maybe not good, real bad I bet


Chorus:
        C          G
And the hail falls hard
        Em            A
And the wind whips my face
          C           G            A         A
And I'm a long, long way from some sheltered space
         C                G
And the storm clouds are flying high
Em               A
Mud all over my face
           C          G           A
And I'm a long, long way from my resting place


| C G Em A C G A A | 2x

Piano Solo:
| C G Em | 4x

Bridge:
C           G            Em
I'm looking for a clean slate
C             G                      Em
Just need to find a new way, way to relate
     C              G
You ever feel like a street walker
Em
I get by being a funny talker
     A
All those funny jokes sting, so keep walking


Chorus:
         C          G
And the hail falls hard
         Em           A
And the wind whips my face
           C          G             A        A
And I'm a long, long way from some sheltered space
         C                G    
And the storm clouds are flying high
Em               A
Mud all over my face
           C          G          A
And I'm a long, long way from my resting place
