The Once And Future Carpenter Tab de uke por The Avett Brothers

E            A            F#m               A
I ain't from Texas, but I made my way from Dallas
      F#m                B             E      B
And I know the lonesome sound is following
E         A                F#m            A
I ain't a gambler, but I can recognize a hand
            F#m                       B               E     B
And when to hold when the queens are staring back at me

Chorus

A                            Am
Forever I will move like the world that turns beneath me
           E       C#m             B
And when I lose my direction I'll look up to the sky
             A                                 
And when the black cloak drags upon the ground
        Am                      E
I'll be ready to surrender, and remember
           C#m            B
Well we're all in this together
A                             Am                         E B E B
If I live the life I'm given,    I wont be scared to die


Verse 3

And I don't come from Detroit, but her diesel motors pull me
And I followed till I finally lost my way
And now I spend my days in search of a woman we called purpose
And if I ever pass back through here town I'll stay


And my life is but a coin, pulled from an empty pocket
Dropped into a slot with dreams of sevens close behind
And hope and fear go with it, and moon and the sun go spinning
Like the numbers and fruits before our eyes

E           A        B                E
Sometimes I hit, sometimes it robs me blind
E           A        B                E
Sometimes I hit, sometimes it robs me blind
