This is mostly drawn from the low-key performance here:

Please comment if you have some nice variation worked out, or any

improvements.

Not positive that the G Major 7th chord is correct, but its what the

guitarist in the first video seems

to be doing, and it sounds ok to me. I'm not sure whether she sings "burning"

or "hurting" in the chorus.

In the first video it sounds like she sings "hurting" both times, but in the

second video it seems like

"burning" in the first chorus, then "hurting" in the second. Any input there

is appreciated.

I love this song, and it is really fun to play. Enjoy!

Bm G D Bm G D
When a love grows cold, like the fire come dawn
Bm G D Bm G D
It is a bitter tune, old homes know through and through
Bm
When is it too soon to walk
A G Gmaj7 Em
When to run dry of talk from burning just the same
Bm
Was it easier in days gone by
A G Gmaj7 Em
Clear skies and storms alike, and words of ties that bind
Bm G D Bm G D
From time to time, a man must go
