Old Pete Chords

(ver. 1)
John Statz
INTRO: Em    A  Em    A  Em

                                A
Driving across Nebraska with my southern sin
                           Em
Was cruising real nice and slow
                            A
Driving across country with air on, it was fine
                                    Em
There was no place that he'd rather go


                A
Been living too long in that one room shack
                     Em
Just living too damn long
                                   A
Woke up last night in a cold sweat thinking
                  Em     D
It was time to be gone


CHORUS 1:
                  G            C
No more friends behind him now
                G      D
And any more in front
         Em
He was a bastard, to say it
       C                G      D
And he wasn't even very tall


CHORUS 2:
                  G            C
No more friends behind him now
                G      D
And any more in front
         Em
He was a bastard, to say it
      C                    G      
And I guess that he didn't know


INTERLUDE: Em    A  Em    A  Em


                       A
Got to her house about 7 or 8
                      Em
She was nowhere to be found
                 A
Went around town asking folks
                         Em
If she'd been put in the ground


BRIDGE:
                          G
People'd heard of Earle's quiet, dirty pains
        D                           Em
And the sadness in his eyes and the hunger in his veins
                
Expected as much, I guess nothing's forever
      D                             Em                D
She'd gone through a wind, but came in with the rain


CHORUS 1:
                  G            C
No more friends behind him now
                G      D
And any more in front
         Em
He was a bastard, to say it
       C                G      D
And he wasn't even very tall


CHORUS 2:
                  G            C
No more friends behind him now
                G      D
And any more in front
         Em
He was a bastard, to say it
      C                    G      
And I guess that he didn't know


OUTRO: D  G  C  G  D  Em  C  G   (2x)
