Fred Eaglesmith - Carter 


Capo 3

Intro D

D                     Em 	  	  	  	 
Rifles in the morning turkeys in the grain
G                                  A
Desperate boys in windswept fields runnin for the train
D                       Em
Skin soaked revelations Whiskey before dawn
G                    A                 D
It won’t be the same now that Carter’s gone

Em  G  A


Drive ins on the state line that high and lonesome sound
Wake up on that hilltop Carter’s in the ground
It makes you kinda hang your head cry into the dawn
Cause it won’t be the same now that Carter’s gone

Em                          G              A
White doves in the hollow I heard somebody say
Em                             G               A
Nobody’s ever gonna play those songs that way again


And I drive thru old Kentucky tearing thru the gears
Trying not to think of him through all my bluegrass tears
Put that guitar beneath the bus I can’t play another one
They don’t sound the same now that Carter’s gone

Em                           G   A                 D
Things will never be the same    now that Carter’s gone

Em G A  D
