The Wanting

(D)

D     Dsus2 Dsus4    D Dsus2 D
D     Dsus2 Dsus4    D Dsus2 D

[Verse 1]
D                    Dsus2 Dsus4
  Don’t sell the farm

  yet, believe in me
D                          Dsus2    Dsus4      D Dsus2 D
  Don’t break the branches off the family tree
D                       Dsus2  Dsus4
  I’m made of good wood,
                      D Dsus2 D
  bend but don’t break
D                     Dsus2     Dsus4  D Dsus2
  There’s only some much middle sons can take

[Pre-Chorus]
G
  My mechanics of coping
D
  Alcohol, melatonin
G                                 D
  Ain’t enough to get you out of my life
G
  You can grab, you can hold it
D
  But you’re gonna let go when
G                                 A
  Everything about it just ain’t right
      A7        D5
  So we’re just

[Chorus]
                       G5
  Dead fields sown in pain
                        D5
  I’m the last of your name
           B5              G5                     D5
  I can’t do it all but I wouldn’t do it all the same
                            G5
  Hard hearts, soft on the past
                       D5                       G5
  Well the hurt came quick, bitterness came to last
               F#5             G5
  You’re the one thing that I want
           A5                 D5
  And the wanting’s all I’ll have

[Verse 2]
D                    Dsus2 Dsus4
  There are some deeds
                      D Dsus2 D
  that can’t be undid
D                        Dsus2    Dsus4         D Dsus2 D
  There are some moral slopes that can’t be unslid
D                        Dsus2 Dsus4
  Did you do right by us?
                   D Dsus2 D
  Best it could be
D                          Dsus2       Dsus4       D Dsus2
  You’ve done no harm but you’ve been no good to me

[Pre-Chorus]
G
  You only think you’re at home when
D
  You’re out and making atonement
G                                 D
  Someday you got to make up your own mind
G
  You’re never gonna get free of
D
  The way you left me to need love
G                                 A
  I returned the pain you paid us in kind
      A7        D5
  So we’re just

[Chorus]
                       G5
  Dead fields sown in pain
                        D5
  I’m the last of your name
           B5              G5                     D5
  I can’t do it all but I wouldn’t do it all the same
                            G5
  Hard hearts, soft on the past
                       D5                       G5
  Well the hurt came quick, bitterness came to last
               F#5             G5
  You’re the one thing that I want
           A5                 D5
  And the wanting’s all I’ll have

[Bridge]
G
  Upon the mount there was a sermon
                               D
  And then there was a lesson learned
G
  If I can only touch in third person
  G                       D
  Is this cause to be concerned
A
  I want to know if the passing’s complete
      G                  D
  And if it was a clean divide
A
  Is this your body
       A
  Is this where you’ll sleep
             G
  I want to love you
                         A                     A7
  I want to tell you but I can’t change my mind

[Chorus]
   D5                   G5
  Dead fields sown in pain
                        D5
  I’m the last of your name
           B5              G5                     D5
  I can’t do it all but I wouldn’t do it all the same
                            G5
  Hard hearts, soft on the past
                       D5                       G5
  Well the hurt came quick, bitterness came to last
               F#5             G5
  You’re the one thing that I want
           A5                 D5
  And the wanting’s all I’ll have

[Outro]
           F#5                G5
  And the wanting’s all I’ll have
           A5                 D
  And the wanting’s all I’ll have
