Grace Potter And The Nocturnals - Ragged Company

capo 3

intro : C G D Dsus4 ( x2 )

C G D Dsus4
o lord i think i’m falling to my disbelief

C G D Dsus4
i’m cursing like a sailor and lying like a thief

C G D Dsus4
it’s hard to heed the calling from the better side of me

C G D Dsus4
when i’m blaming everybody else and no one’s coming clean

C G D Dsus4
o lord can you see my thick skin wearing thin

C G D Dsus4
and the demons of a lesser me are beckoning me in

C G D Dsus4
those who gathered ’round me – i’m watching them all leave

C Em D G
cause i Am my own ragged company

C G D Dsus4
you can take a trip to china or take a boat to spain

C G D Dsus4
take a blue canoe around the world and never come back again

C G D Dsus4
but traveling don’t change a thing , it only makes it worse

C G D Dsus4
unless the trip you take is in to change your cruel course

C G D Dsus4
’cause every town’s got a mirror and every mirror still shows me

C Em D G
that i Am my own ragged company

C Em D G
i Am my own ragged company

C G D Dsus4 ( x4 )
instrumental

A Asus4
won’t you help me lord

A Asus4
won’t you help me lord

A Asus4
someone cut the cord

G F D C G D Dsus4
and i’m falling down again – – – – – – –

C G D Dsus4 ( x3 )
instrumental

C G D Dsus4
oh it’s lonely , lord it’s mighty cold

C G D Dsus4
and i don’t want to live this way afraid of growing old

C G D Dsus4
it’s hard to heed the warning when you cannot see the crime

C G D Dsus4
the only way to remember is to forget in a rhyme

C G D Dsus4
and i’m scared to tread the red road that leads to galilee

C Em D G
cause i Am my own ragged company

C Em D G
i Am my own ragged company ( x3 )
