Wake Me Up In Nashville

G                   C
Boarding the train,
G                      C    G             C  G
I don't know if I will ever see her again,
       D              Em
But of one thing I am sure,
                   D
I'm heading off to war,
      C              G
I may not come back again.
|:G (6 beats), C (2 beats):| (x2)
G                  D
What's the cost to win,
Em                          C
People say we'll change the world,
G                  D
but where do I fit in,
Em             D        Em
At least I can wave goodbye,
                   D
To the apple of my eye,
        C     D     G
Oh this crazy crazy world.

   C             Em
So don't let me sleep,
           C          Em
I've got a promise to keep,
            C     Em
you will be on my mind,
       D                 G
saying be strong in this fight,
    C            D                           G
and carrying me through these troubled times.

   G       D     Em
So wake me up in Nashville,
           C             D
cause it's where I wanna be,
           G               Em       C    D
and I will meet you on the platform at 3:15,
           G      D       Em          C             D
and I will look into your eyes in the fading autumn light,
G       D     Em    C
wake me up in Nashville,
       D          G
let me hold you tonight.

G                 C   G
Do you understand,
G             C  G                    C  G
as I put that 20 dollars in your hand,
    C         D        Em
The task that you must do,
                          D
It may mean that's all to you,
             C    D        G     C  G
but it means everything to me.
   G                    D
My friends they may get lost,
              Em                C                   G                 D
cause they're fighting for what they believe but if you were all I've got,
         Em            C
put your picture in my Pocket-watch,
G              D        Em            C
capturing that smile is all I want to do for now,
G               D
I may be gone a while,
    Em            *C   *C  *C  C
but I will make it back somehow.
