Spirit of the West
(this also appears on Go Figure, but it is a bit different)
C Csus2
I was tired of being put right down by my
F
self for not being what you thought you had found
C Csus2
Pulled hard in two directions by a
F
desire to learn and my old affections
C Csus2
When I tried to share my world with you
F
you could not seem to tolerate the
C Csus2
people I have grown to love
F
They shrank under your scrutiny, became the ones you'd hate, why did
CHORUS:
C Csus2
everything, every little thing, every little thing with you and
F
me have to be so political
C Csus2
Everything, every little thing, every little thing with you and
F F C ( Csus2 F F C Csus2 F C G )*
me had to be so political
* (fill not played before third verse)
C Csus2
I was feeling a little underwhelmed about
F
hanging 'round with you and feeling over-cautious
C Csus2
Every word, every little look, every little sign, every little
F
phrase put me deeper in your doghouse
C Csus2
You'd let me out to run across your world, I
F
ran into a wall, you told me I built it then you'd
C Csus2
Reel me in, ream me out, pick me up, push me
F
out again, and then repeat, why did
CHORUS
G F
Too busy tripping on my tongue, to try and stand my ground
G F
I can still see myself crying in your lap asking you
"Are you happy with the man you have found?"
HARMONICA SOLO:
C Csus2 F F (repeated 4 times)
C Csus2
I'm grateful for what you did for me
F
I can see things now I never would have seen
C Csus2
And today I thought about what could have been but could
F
Never be for you and me because
