12000 Lines chords by Big Thief

[Intro]

C Dm7 F C
C F C
 
[Verse]

C              Dm7           F 
Crossed twelve thousand lines 
                  C
Looking for your face

        F            C
Only to find not a trace
C                Dm7    
Even the memory of your 
     F                C 
mouth tries to disappear

       F                C
Little lights turn into spheres
     F                 C
Blue mountain in the rearview
 
[Chorus]

G7/B               F             C
Some nights, barely breathing at all
A#6             F          C
Waiting for my woman to call
 
C Dm7 F C
 
[Verse]

C            Dm7          
Cross twelve letters down, 
F                  C
found the longest word

     F            C
This morning, I'd heard
C                  Dm7    
Somebody said they saw you 
    
       F         C   
'round 1st and 23rd

     F                    C
Blue feathers in your hairdo
 
[Chorus]

G7/B               F             C
Some nights, barely breathing at all
A#6             F         C
Waiting for my woman to call
G/B         F                C
Maple cherry leaves start to fall
A#6             F         C
Waiting for my woman to call
 
Dm7 F C
 
C Dm7 F C
 
[Verse]

C     Dm7   F               C
Sweet honey, stirring in my tеa
       F        C
You're stirring me
C   Dm7     F       
Forgivenеss, all the 
                 C
money in the world

      F
Won't buy it
 
[Chorus]

G7/B               F
Some nights, barely 
             C
Breathing at all

A#6             F         C
Waiting for my woman to call
