Later Days

Intro:   |:  G  Am  :|  (4x)

          G                Am
In these later days we're making

   G             Am
a living on the taking

           G             D                   Am              C
from each other all the things for which we have no further use

See the people there on Friday
at the barter fair say 'why pay'
could I trade you this fine portrait for those shoes

And I know that I don't know you well
but holding your hand I can tell
that if I ever lost you I'd be crazed

         G              Am
And the sunny field is darkened by

     G            Am
the shadows I am harkened by

           G               Am                  D     D/C   D/B  D/C
could you hold me tightly through these later days

D          D/C        D/B        D/A        G
      Later Days later days later days later


These commercials have me thinking
what I drive and what I'm drinking
are in essence just the things that make me free

We're not movin' on the freeway
and there's got to be a new way
to get my things from point A to point B

And the sunny field is darkened by
the shadows I am harken by
could you hold me tightly through these later days

Later Days later days later days later
