The chorus is a little shaky. The A#'s are technically correct, but a lot of the
time you can interchange them with Dm's with little issue. This tab has room for
improvement, I think. Let me know what you think. I love this song.
G Dm F C
Well I knew a dealer, dan, and hed say
Dont worry bout me -
Im never gonna fit the plan
And Ill never work for free
And then he spent some time in a state penitentiary
I believe he made ten cents an hour
And I knew a girl in college
Sweet as the summer sun
Never worried bout books and knowledge
She was having too much fun
And I hear these days shes living at home with a three year old son
Reading up on women taking power
G A#
The trees grow high
C A#
And the leaves they grow green
G A# C D
And me oh my all the things that I have seen
G A#
Dont be surprised little bro
C A#
When the world turns out mean
G A# C A#
Life is what happens in between
G Dm F C
Well I know a man, old man, about ninety five
He could hardly see nor stand
But he was g*****n glad to be alive
And he said, hey son go and taste of life!
Get in your car and drive.
And thats exactly what I do
But out here on the road
You know a man leads a simple life
Dont carry no heavy loads
And he dont get time for a lady or a wife
But sometimes the stars I'm followin'
Well they dont shine so bright
And thats when I wish I was home with you
G A#
The trees grow high
C A#
And the leaves they grow green
G A# C D
And me oh my all the things that I have seen
G A#
Dont be surprised little bro
C A#
When the world turns out mean
G A# C A#
Life is what happens in between
G Dm F C
Well you remember our dad, remember what he said?
He said, this heres a family,
Gonna be together til were dead
Ten years and two homes ago
It aint quite what turned out to be
And I still hear those words
They ring and ring and ring inside of me
G A#
The trees grow high
C A#
And the leaves they grow green
G A# C D
And me oh my all the things that I have seen
G A#
Dont be surprised little bro
C A#
When the world turns out mean
G A# C A#
Life is what happens in between
G Dm F C...
