[Verse]
C
I got a bad phone call from Elizabethtown.
Am
Said my brother, he?s back in jail.
F
& the kids are staying with the grandfolks now,
G
Cause there ain?t noone ?round here, family or not
F
Even thinking about going his bail.
C
He's been living down the wrong road now.
Is what some people they?re saying.
Am
Going on a couple of years.
F
But I was there when he nearly blew that boy away.
G
& I ain't ever thought once in all my life
I?d ever see so many tears.
[Chorus]
F C
I said, ?Justin, please you break my heart.
G C
You've got a soul of gold, but you ain't that smart
F G
On the streets & boy you're needing to be.
F C
If you wanna keep tumbling around,
F C
Keep your own two feet from flying off the ground,
F G
Wanna keep acting like you?re some damn Indiana kingpin?
F
Just shadow boxing on the corner where you planted your seeds
C
Waiting for the snow to fall & cover your dreams, alright.?
C G Dm F
C
I don't think too much about Elizabethtown
Am
But there?s some memories that I can?t shake.
F
It's like slideshows taped up behind my eyes ?
C G
I've got one for every time I tried to get away
F
One for every time that I stayed.
C
It'll take you fifteen hours to get from there to here
Am
It takes me nine every time I leave.
F
I ain't ever been one for the long goodbyes.
G
I ain't ever had the stomach for the same old scene
Never had the patience to pray.
[Chorus]
F C
I said, Justin, please you break my heart.
G C
You?ve got a soul of gold, but you ain?t that smart
F G
On the streets ? & boy you're needing to be.

Keep your own two feet from flying off the ground,

Wanna keep acting like you?re some damn Indiana kingpin?

Just shadow boxing on the corner where you planted your seeds

Waiting for the wind to blow & scatter your dreams, alright.?

G
Cause there ain?t noone ?round here, family or not
F
Even picking up on one of his trails.
C
He's been living down the long road now
Is what some people they?re saying
Am
Heading down to the pier.
F
Then his body washed up just the other day.
C G
& I ain?t ever thought once in all my life
I'd ever see so many tears.
