Chris Ross - Little Less Bitter Ukulele

Chris borrowed the first verse of "Darkness on The Edge of Town" by Springsteen 
for this tune.  But it's one of my favorites he's ever done.

Am                    C
I lit another on the on-ramp
G       F
Put on Darkness on the Edge of Town
Am                    C
Ain't it funny how a sad song
              G
Can make the road long
 F
Cause a man to cover ground


Am                        C
With every smile in the rearview
G                                      F
Right next to all them things that I shoulda done
                     C
I never did, Not a single one
Am                 C
Her eyes were the first prize
G                             F
In a lonesome game I shoulda never won

Well this
C
Place I'm headin' just don't
Am
Seem much better I guess it
G
Just hasn't set and I should
F
Start forgettin' well this
C
Sure ain't Jersey
Am
But I'm racin' down these streets again
G
Headin' for the shore
F
With a little luck
A little less bitter and
(Riff)
A little less bitter and

(Riff)

I said goodbye to a closed eye
Just beggin' for it's ocean blue
Cause after all it's a long ride

Ain't it funny how one little girl
Could take a place like this whole wide world
Crush it down make it seem so goddamn...Small
Ain't it somethin' how a man with nothin' can
Always find a lower place to fall

Well this
Place I'm headin' just don't
Seem much better I guess it
Just hasn't set and
I should start forgettin' well this
Sure ain't Jersey
But I'm racin' down these streets again
Headin' for the shore
And with a little luck
A little less bitter and
(Riff)
A little less bitter and
(Riff)
A little less bitter and
(Riff  x2)

         Am            C           G             F
They're still racing down at the Trestles
           Am            C              G     F
But that blood it never burned in her veins
       Am               C           G         F
Now I hear she's got a house up in Fairview
        Am           C          G         F
And a style she's trying to maintain
     Am       C       G         F
Well if she wants to see me
         Am                 C      G      F
You can tell her that I'm easily found
  Am                C               G       F
Tell her there's a spot out 'neath Abram's Bridge
              Am         C              G        F
And tell her there's a darkness on the edge of town
Am          C               G      F
There's a darkness on the edge of town
Am        C               G 
I'm that darkness on the edge...
     F
Of town...
