A A D A There’s a girl I know, don’t know her name E E D A She’s got eyes like fire and she knows no pain D A D A But there are scars that show when she walks at night E D A Man I hope to God that she does all right A D A D A Let’s take an easy ride through the country hills E D A Keep your eyes on the road till your mind grows still D A D A The stories you tell don’t give a man no peace E D A Can I comfort you with the songs I sing E D A Can I comfort you with the songs I sing A A D A When the lights go out and the stage gets dark E E D A We’ll find our way in the place we start, D A D A If you have a child, just take a gentle hand E D A There’s not one word you say that I don’t understand E E She says don’t sing a song for me E D A Just keep it still, Don’t sing a song for me A D A When you go to town, just look back east E D A There’s a mountain there that will move your feet D A D A Some will call you mean they call you old E D A There’s a better place where your story’s told D A D A Let’s take an easy ride through the country hills E D A Keep your mind on that road till the time grows still D A D A Those stories you tell don’t give a man no peace E D A Can I comfort you with the songs I sing E D A Can I comfort you with the songs I sing
