Your love is my rest

INTRO:{E} -{C#m} - G#m - B
E -{C#m} - G#m - B
E These are the words that C#m cry out of me in the night G#m---B
E Like a buffalo herd from a C#m shotgun blast scattered in flight G#m G#
{A}I got a one track mind
Going down a E one train line
Living on B dreams half the time
Going E west E7
A I gotta pick up speed
Just to get E what I need
The end of the B line guaranteed
Your love is my E rest B
E The coal catches fire and I'm C#m down the wire in a flash G#m---B
E That big old smokestack is C#m belching out black smoke and ash G#m G#
A So sad to think of
Hurting the E one you love
But surely that's B what leaving does
You would know E best E7
{A}I gotta pick up speed
Just to get E what I need
The end of the B line guaranteed
Your love is my E rest
B Your love is my E rest

E I stand in the land of C#m Custer's last stand and I grin G#m---B
E So this is where old C#m yellow-hair's ghost-dance begins G#m G#
A I got the blood on my hands
Can't even E live where I stand
I'm just a B travelling man
Cursed or E blessed E7
A I gotta pick up speed
Just to get E what I need
The end of the B line guaranteed
Your love is my E rest B
A I gotta pick up speed
Just to get E what I need
The end of the B line guaranteed
Your love is my E rest B
Your love is my rest E
B Your love is my rest E
