Intro: G C



Verse:

G                      C    G    C
I don't know much more desolate
     G                 D/F#   Em   D/F#
Than north Mississippi headed west
G                    C     G      C
Three more days I'll turn around
     G          D/F# G
Then I'll be Alabama bound

G        C  G  C
I65 exit 53
G                        D/F#     Em   D/F#
Dinosaurs staring in the driver's seat
       G                        C    G    C
Well I made all the way through Tennessee
   G                           D        C
By now you know better than to wait for me



Chorus:
Em                 D/F# G        C       C/B       D

Em                    D/F#    G   C              C/B     D
Something as simple as calling home never seems to work out right
            Em   D/F#     G F C          G
The hardest part of what I do is missing you

Piss poor coffee hotel bed
  G                            D/F#  Em   D/F#
A thousand songs saying what's in my head
G                            C   G   C
That don't mean that it aint true
G                    D      C
When I comes down to me and you

Em                 D/F# G        C       C/B       D
No postcards or pay tele-phones to help me though the night
Em                    D/F#    G   C              C/B     D

The hardest part of what I do is missing you

I spend every night missing little things the most
