More songs by Shack


This file is part of a collection that (moreso than the rest of the site) are not meant to be detailed or accurate transcriptions of the original recordings. They're just some simple chord charts that I made for my own use, some of them my own arrangements.

Capo 3

        C         G          D       G
She was born in a ghost town way out west
        C               G             D     Dsus
'bout a million-billion miles from anywhere
          C        G        D      Em
She could find her way back home I guess
        C            D              G
But the truth is she doesn't really care

    CHORUS:
            D           C         G
    And the wind blows across the land
            D             C       G
    And the rivers keep on flowin'
            D                  C              G
    Just as long as stars keep shining on her head
                C        D       G
    She'll just keep on, Keep On Goin'

She was wild like the tangles up in her hair
That hadn't seen a brush or comb in years
She doesn't know where she's goin'
  she'll know when she gets there
All she knows is that it's far away from here

REPEAT CHORUS

        BRIDGE:
              G        D/F#     Em
        But I need her like the land needs rain
          G           D/F#     Em
        I love her in spite of all the pain
             G         D/F#         Em
        I'll search forever just to find a way
           Am                 D
        To love her enough to make her stay

But the road calls her name like a siren song
And if you asked her she couldn't tell you why
So far my love's not strong enough to make this her home
But all my life I'll always try
