guitar chords lyrics
Capo on 1st fret.**
INTRO D Bm G
VERSE I
D Bm
We counted the stars on the fourth of July,
G A
Wishin' we were rockets burstin into the sky.
D Bm
Talkin' about the redemption...leavin' things behind,
G A D Bm G A
As the sun sank west of the Mendocino county line.
D Bm
As fierce as Monday mornin' feelin' washed away
G A
I orchestrated paradise but couldn't make you stay.
D Bm
You dance with horses, through the sands of time
G A D
As the sun sinks west of the Mendocino county line.
CHORUS
G A
I have these pictures and I keep these photographs
G A
To remind me of a time. These pictures and these photographs
G Bm
Let me know I'm doing fine. I used to make you happy once
G A D Bm G A
Upon a time but the sun sank west of the Mendocino county line.
VERSE II
D Bm
The two of us together, felt nothing but right
G A
Feelin' near immortal every Friday night.
D Bm
Lost in our convictions, lips stained with wine
G A D
As the sun sank west of the Mendocino county line.
CHORUS II
G A
I have these pictures and I keep these photographs
G A
To remind me of a time. These pictures and these photographs
G Bm
Let me know I'm doing fine. I used to make you happy once
G A D
Upon a time but the sun sank west of the Mendocino county line.
BRIDGE
C G
I don't talk to you too much these days
C D
I just thank the Lord pictures don't fade
C G
I spent with an angel just passing through
A
Now all that's left is this image of you.
INSTRUMENTAL BREAK
G A G A Bm A G
VERSE III
D Bm
We counted the stars on the fourth of July,
G A
Wishin' we were rockets burstin into the sky.
D Bm
Talkin' about the redemption...leavin' things behind
REPEAT CHORUS
Bm G A D Bm G
But the sun sank west of the Mendocino county line,
A D Bm G A D
Mendocino county line, oh the Mendocino county line.
TAG on D, Bm, G and A until the end.
