YOU CAN'T GO HOME AGAIN (Nanci Griffith)
----------------------------------------

[Actually in F#; capo 4.]

  D                     E7
  So much silence to my hometown streets

A7                                     D
  Gonna put my cheek to the window and watch it sleep

D                             E7
  Where the shadows fall from sycamore trees

A7                                      D
  Fight off this north wind and I'll be headin' back east


G             F#m            Em            D
  And let the Colorado River roll on to the sea

G           F#m              A7sus     A7sus
  I will be crossing it in changes

      G                   F#m                  Em        D
  And this ol' town never did really care that much for me

G                F#m             A7sus      D    E7   A7   D
  I don't know why I always come here in my dreams


It's the hardest to hold but it's the easiest to find
If you'll slip for the dollar I'll fall in your wine
But you cannot save your past for today
It'll leave you cold on an outbound train

And let the Colorado River roll on to the sea
I will be crossing it in changes
And this ol' town never did really care that much for me
I don't know why I'd always come here in my dreams

Folded memories in my soul
It's that old blue line that you can never go back home
So I'm waiting for the moon to rise
'Cause it'll kiss my tears away and set my heart in line

And let the Colorado River roll on to the sea
I will be crossing it in changes
And this ol' town never did really care that much for me
I only come here to remember my dreams
Sleep tight
Hill Country town, goodnight
