Slow Healing Heart

Jim Rushing
Vern Gosdin
Bpm 130
D C G A D C G A

[Verse]
D A D
When I left I left walkin' wounded
A D
I made my escape from the rain
G
Still a prisoner of hurt
C G
I had lots worth of work
D A
Just freein' my mind of the pain
D A D
I had hours of sittin' alone in the dark
G A
Listenin' to Emmylou and comin' apart
D G D G
Lord knows I made cussing an art
D A D G
Woe is a slow healing heart

[Chorus]
D A D
A slow healing heart is dyin' to mend
G A
It’s Longin' for love and lonely as sin
D
But when the spirit is broken
G D
And the memories start
G
Nothin' moves slower
A D
Oh Than a slow healing heart
C G A D C G A

[Verse]
D A D
How I prayed for blind faith to lead me
A D
To places where I'm not afraid
G C G
Now I'm doin' fine both body and mind
D A
But Some scars on my heart have stayed
D A D
But there's a part of my feelings always on guard
G A
For looks that are tender and words that are hard
D G D G
'Cause I still remember those cutting remarks
D A D
And weak is a slow healing heart
G D
