Pictures In A Drawer Chords

(ver. 1)
Justin Townes Earle
[Intro]
Am

[Verse 1]
C
It's raining in the mountains
Am
It's heading this way
C
It’s supposed to rain tomorrow
Am
Or the next day
F               G
Sure I get lonely
C        walk       Am
But a whole lot has changed
F                                      G
Yours is the first voice I've heard in days

[Verse 2]
C
Oh but mama if you don't mind
       Am
Can we talk about something else
C
Mama please don't come over
            Am
This ain’t nothing you can help
F                G                 C        walk Am
You'll be the first to know when I start to come around
F                         G                          C
I’m not drowning I'm just seeing how long I can stay down

[Chorus]
               Am
And mama she's gone
           F            C
And just a picture in a drawer
F                             C             G
The kind of hurt that takes a rainy day and hurts that much more
           C
Mama she's gone

[Verse 3]
C
Well you know there's nothing tying me
          Am
to this town now that she's gone
C
Don't know why I ever come back
        Am
Guess I just tagged along
F       G                 C           walk     Am
Can't believe that once I called this place my home
F                                 G            C
Cause I'm walking the streets and all I see is ghosts

[Chorus]
           Am
Mama she's gone
           F            C
And just a picture in a drawer
    F                 C                     G
The kind of hurt that takes a rainy day and hurts that much more
            C
Mama she's gone

[Instrumental]
C Am C Am F G C Am F  (this is not right, but close-ish)

[Bridge]
F                                    C
Lonely, lonely and wondering where I am
F                                                 G
And I know the love I see was over long before it began

[Verse 4]
C
And now the rain's getting closer
Am
Midnight's coming on
    C
The wind seems to whisper
    Am
You fool you know she's gone
F               G                        C        walk     Am
I still leave the gate unlatched just in case she staggers home
F                    G                  C
Mama said she was no good And now she's gone
