Codeine - FJ Eaglesmith (Intro) D-D-D7 D-A-Bm D-A-Bm-Bm D A Bm Well the codeine makes it hard to round up the cattle D A Bm And the light sure does hurt your tortured eyes G F#m You keep falling in & out of your broken saddle D A Bm And there's so many knots you've forgotten how to tie D A Bm And the winds willow softly like a funeral home D A Bm And the dew sparkles like a baby's tear G F#m And your hands are softer than you've ever known D A Bm And there's nothing left for you too see or hear G And that bloody barbed wire F#m They've put it up everywhere G F#m And those summer storms they sure do make it shine D A Em7 And the dust has changed the colour of your hair D A Bm And the wind has changed the lines around your eyes G F#m And you just can't drink whiskey anymore G F#m And there's nothing that will kill your endless heartburn D A Bm And that pick-up truck is starting so much harder D A Bm And lately you've been taking some wrong turns D A Bm And there's survey stakes they're on the horizon D A Bm And they ain't staking out wells or mines G F#m And the site of those machines could start you crying D A Bm And the sounds keep you up in the night D A Bm And the sounds keep you up in the night D A Bm And the sounds keep you up in the night D A Bm And the sounds keep you up in the night (repeat and fade...)
