intro :
Am / Am+ / Am6 / Am+
Am / Am+ / Am6 / Am+

verse 1 :
Am Am/G Am/F
i woke up with the war in my head
E7sus4 E7
an old man’s grumble , and an extra space in the bed
Am Am/G Am/F E7sus4
and if ole’ john prine , could sing the next line
E7
’bout something that can make me smile

bridge :
Dm G7
i’m gonna have to be content to
E/G# Am Am ( maj7 )
stare at your baby photos till it makes sense
Dm G7
and were you ever mine , anyway?
E/G#
speak up as i drop away

chorus :
A
i wrote down what i think
Dmaj7
on the head of a matchstick
A
wrote it all short and sweet
Dmaj7
all that made sense to me

F#m
burn six thousand miles
Bm
sorry for all the times
Dmaj7
i just can’t add up all the songs
( repeat intro )
to find the damage we done

verse 2 :
i fought for you like a doll from a tree
i keep a straight stiched face
as the ground makes a bed for me
i keep my eye where i fell it sends no replies

bridge 2 :
you can run so long from sadness
that you’re never at home for the fun
i can’t make excuses for the short – hand abuses
thank god it ain’t a sunday night

chorus :
i wrote down what i think
on the head of a matchstick
wrote it all short and sweet
all that made sense to me

i burnt six thousand miles
sorry for all the times
i just can’t add up the songs
to find the damage . . .

i wrote down what i think
on the head of a matchstick
i wrote it all short and sweet
all that made sense to me
i’m burning out in the lights
sorry for all the times
i just can’t see how it comes
to find the damage we done

the damage we done
the damage we done
