WWW.AZCHORDS.COM | Turnpike Troubadours - Evangeline Chords | Ver. 1
Intro and Instrumental are the same as chorus.
Bm
Lookin back well I see you
G
with eyes that shouldn't be so blue
D A
Clearer than the calm before the rain
Bm G
So alive it wasn't fair to live without a single care
D A
I loved you and you felt for me the same
Em7 G
So beautiful that words could not define
Em7 A
Sweeter than the lord's communion wine
(Chorus)
G D
Evangeline can't you see I'm sorry
G A
Can't you hear my tears ringin through the night
D D/C# Bm G
I wait in hell between these bedsheets
D A D
And pray to god for morning light
And winter came and blood ran cold
as ever present sleet and snow
Outside of a December window pane
This house would never be our home
Hand in hand we walk alone
I thought the sun would never shine again
And the oldest violin could never whine
A melody as sorrowful as mine
(Chorus)
Now I've seen your face a thousand times
and nightmares runnin through my mind
It hurts just to pretend
But the devil fell and so have i
Never thought a love like this would end
Now your words they cut right through me like a knife
I gave my love and now I take my life
(Chorus)
