Des Moines

F  C  G    Am  G  F
F  C  G    Am  G  F

[Verse 1]
                       C             G
The road does funny things inside a man
   Am                  G           F
To hurt in ways I just don't understand
                      C                   G
My heart can see the road that leads back home
                         F           Am    G
I'm afraid that I can't get there anymore

[Verse 2]
   F                   C        G
I wish that you could see into my eyes
   Am                 G                 F
To see what makes me race and makes me cry
                         C                   G
I have faith inside this broken tethered heart
                F           Am          G
Whatever role I play is the right part

[Chorus]
F                   G                   Am
The sunshine in Des Moines can fade so fast
  F               G                 Am
A love you never meant to let slip past
  F      G                C G Am
Minneapolis could take me home
    F                    G      C
But home ain't where I'm headed for

[Verse 3]
    F              C              G
My sorrow makes a face the way I hurt
  Am              G                F
A longing-for betrayed by what I'm sure
                          C              G
Are sounds and words that push and pull you still
                     F                  Am   G
But hardened by the thought of what you will

[Verse 4]
F                   C            G
Soon I'll find the places that I know
Am                    G                F
Faced by what should find me on this road
                         C                    G
My heart still sees the path that leads back home
                            F            Am   G
But I think she's gone, I think I'm all alone

[Chorus]
F                   G                   Am
The sunshine in Des Moines can fade so fast
  F               G                 Am
A love you never meant to let slip past
  F      G                C G Am
Minneapolis could take me home
    F                    G       C
But home ain't where I'm headed for
F                    G       C
Home ain't where I'm headed for
