[Intro]
Bm G
[Verse 1]
Bm
God, take me back to the orange grove
G
That I found deep in the desert
Bm
The air sweet as a miracle
G F#m
It can't survive but it grows and grows and grows
Bm
West Texas is dying slow
G
An oil rig in the sunset
Bm
The air is heavy and filled with smoke
G F#m A
There ain't no quit in the hands that built this home
G A
A dog barks in the distance
G
Rusted frames take root in the brush
[Chorus]
D
You'll watch it decay
Dmaj7 Em G Gmaj7
Lie through your teeth and say you'll resurrect a ghost
D Dmaj7 Bm A
The paper tigers you made then swore to keep away
Em G Gmaj7
You're a knife there at my throat
Bm G
God, take me back to the orange grove
[Verse 2]
Bm
Fall came quiet and sudden
G
They're smoking out of their storm doors
Bm
Work left town with the summer
G F#m
We're just trying to keep warm
Bm
That cough don't sound any better
G
Another month, trying to push through
Bm
Blood in your spit in the morning
G F#m A
Give a fake name at the emergency room
G A
There at the edge of losing everything
G
Taking desperate swings in the dark
[Chorus]
D
You'll watch it decay
Dmaj7 Em G Gmaj7
Lie through your teeth and say you'll resurrect a ghost
D Dmaj7 Bm A
The paper tigers you made then swore to keep away
Em G Gmaj7
You're a knife there at my throat
[Bridge]
Em D
When your mom got sick so slow
G
Did you carry the weight alone?
Em D
When the bills started to grow
G
Did you carry the weight alone?
Em D
When the bank came for your home
G
Did you carry the weight alone?
Em D
When you reap what they sow
G Gmaj7
Do you carry the weight alone?
[Chorus]
D
You'll watch it decay
F#min Bm A Em G Gmaj7
Lie through your teeth and say you'll resurrect a ghost
