6th Of October chords

[Verse 1]
     G                        Cadd9        G
I threw up this morning in Christiansburg, VA
    Cadd9          G               D
I drove down from PA, slept in my van
            G
And I can still taste the whiskey
          Cadd9          G
From the last fool that kissed me
         Cadd9      G
And the people who miss me
       D/F#              G
I can count on one hand
 
 
[Verse 2]
                             Cadd9   G
He missed by a mile, a Paso Fino  caballo
      Cadd9    G
That girl in Ohio
                    D
With hair black as coal
          G
She was charmed for a moment
      Cadd9        G

    hide ad ⨯
    

        

    



By a circus clown poet
      Cadd9        G           D          G
And, boy, did he blow it and she let him go
 
 
[Chorus]
          Cadd9
Reckless hearts
                   Cadd9
The tattered and bruised ones
      Cadd9
The slightly confused ones
                                 G
The ones holding stools down in bars
  Cadd9
Show up and find us
     F        Cadd9
And gently remind us
                           G
To not be ashamed of our scars
          A
Or who we are
 
 
[Verse 3]
           G
I've been saying I was sober
           Cadd9      G
Since the sixth of October
    Cadd9        G
But all that was over
                  D
When I heard him say
            G
There's a friend you been missin'
        Cadd9        G
With a fifth in the kitchen
 Cadd9      G              D      G
We started sippin' and he faded away
 
 
[Chorus]
          Cadd9
Reckless hearts
                   Cadd9
The tattered and bruised ones
      Cadd9
The slightly confused ones
                                 G
The ones holding stools down in bars
  Cadd9
Show up and find us
     F        Cadd9
And gently remind us
                           G
To not be ashamed of our scars
          A
Or who we are

[Outro]
         G
So just live in the rhythm
          Cadd9          G
And the rhymes when you get 'em
         Cadd9          G
And the notes when you miss 'em
                            D
'Cause you drank all night long
   G
In all of his runnin'
     Cadd9    G
He showed me somethin'
      Cadd9       G
That dyin' ain't nothin'
       D/F#             G
And I can't prove him wrong
