Ettas Tune Chords

(ver. 1)
Roseanne Cash
[Intro]
A D    [x2]
 
 
[Verse 1]
A
  What's the temperature, darlin'?
D
  A hundred or more.
    A
The horses pawing at the dust,
        E
Violets wilting by the door.
        A
But you pour your strongest coffee,
        D
And I'll take the battered wheel.
      A
We'll drive straight down the river road
             E
And spread a blanket on the hill.
 
 
[Verse 2]
A
  What's the temperature, darlin'?
          D
Now don't stare into the past.
          A
There was nothing we could change or fix.
       E
It was never gonna last.
           A
Now, don't stare into those photos,
     D               Bm
Don't an*lyze my eyes.
             A
We're just a mile or two from Memphis
        E
And the rhythm of our lives.
 
 
[Chorus]
  D
A mile or two from Memphis,
    E
And I must go away.
  A
I tore up all the highways.
            D
Now there's nothing left to say.
  A
A mile or two from Memphis,
E                       A
  And I finally made it home.
 
 
[Interlude]
A  D  A  E
 
 
[Verse 3]
           A
There were days you paced the kitchen,
           D
There were nights that felt like jail.
         A
When the phone rang in the dead of night,
          E
You would always throw my bail.
        A
No, you never touched the whiskey,
        D
And you never took the pills.
  A
I traveled for a million miles
      E
While you were standing still.
 
 
[Verse 4]
A
  What's the temperature, darlin'?
       D
As the daylight fades away
     A
I'll make one last rehearsal
     E
With one foot in the grave.
            A
We kept the house on old Nokomis,
            D
We kept the polished bass guitar.
            A
We kept the tickets and the reels of tape
     E
To remember who we are.
 
 
[Chorus]
  D
A mile or two from Memphis,
    E
And I must go away.
  A
I tore up all the highways.
            D
Now there's nothing left to say.
  A
A mile or two from Memphis,
E       Bm      E       A
  And I finally made it home.
 
 
[Interlude]
A  D  A  E
 
 
[Outro]
A N.C.
  What’s the temperature, darling’?
