[Verse 1]
          C           G            C
Came into town with a pocketful of songs
           C            F           C
I made the rounds but I didn't last long
            Am      G              F         C
Now I'm out on this highway with a bone-cold chill
Am  Am/G  Am/F  C  F   C
Somewhere north of Nashville


[Verse 2]
       C           G             C
I lie awake in the middle of the night
                 C             F         C
Makin' a list of things that I didn't do right
     Am         G        F         C
With you at the top of a long page filled
      Am  Am/G  Am/F  C  F   C
Here, somewhere north of Nashville

Am Am/G Am/F C F C


[Bridge]
        F                G          Am
For the deal I made, the price was strong
F            C        G
I traded you for this song


[Verse 3]
C                         G      C
We woke each morning with hearts filled
            C           F      C
Bluebird of love on the windowsill
        Am         G              F         C
Now the heart's unsteady, and the night is still
         Am             G       F       C
All I've got's this melody, and time to kill
      Am  Am/G  Am/F  C  F   C
Here, somewhere north of Nashville
      Am  Am/G  Am/F  C  F   C
Here, somewhere north of Nashville
      Am  Am/G  Am/F  C  F   C
Here, somewhere north of Nashville
