David Allan Coe - Heaven Only Knows
Capo 5

[Intro]
G Am D X2

G Am D G
You ain?t daddy?s little girl anymore
Am D G
Isn?t that a cryin? shame
Am D G
With your dreams of California
Am D Bm
Searchin? for you wealth and fame
C B A G
I can still see the teardrops
D Bm
Streamin? down your face
C B A G
I can hear you say
D
There?s no future in this place.

G Am D G
So you packed your belongin?s
Am D Bm
While I stood watched you go
C B A G
Why I never tried to stop you
D
Heaven Only Knows.

[Instrumental]
G Am D X2

G Am D G
Through the years I got some postcards
Am D G
That is all that I recall
Am D G
Tellin? me that you were happy
Am D Bm
But I never got one call
C B A G
You thought you knew all the answers
D Bm
When you were seventeen
C B A G
Someone just sent me your picture
D G
From some dirty magazine
Am D G
And I?ve heard you?ve made some movies
Am D Bm
That I would not care to see
C B A G
I just know how much I love you
D
That don?t mean a thing to me.

[Instrumental]
G Am D X2

G Am D G
I guess your brother felt the same way
Am D G
I could not keep him on the farm
Am D G
They found his body in Chicago
Am D Bm
With a needle in his arm
C B A G
I can still see the teardrops
D Bm
Streamin? down his face
C B A G
I can still hear him say
D
There?s no future in this place.

G Am D G
So he packed his belongin?s
Am D Bm
Like you did once long ago
C B A G
Why I never tried to stop him
D
Heaven Only Knows.

[Instrumental]
G Am D

G Am D G
Now I?m standin? in this graveyard
Am D G
Were we laid your momma down
Am D G
I recall that preacher?s words now
Am D Bm
When they put her in the ground
C B A G
It?s your job to raise these children
D Bm
And I tried to do my best
C B A G
It?s been ten years since we lost her
D Bm
From that cancer in her chest
C B A G
And I can feel the teardrops
D Bm
Streamin? down my face
C B A G
Lately you know I?ve been thinkin?
D
There?s no future in this place.

G Am D G
And I would pack my belongin?s
Am D Bm
But if got no place to go
C B A G
Why the good Lord doesn?t take me
D
Heaven Only Knows.

[Outro]
G Am D G
But you ain?t daddy?s little girl anymore
Am G
Isn?t that a cryin? shame
