A#                   F
I remember all them summers
Cm                A#     D#
Playing 'til my fingers bled
A#                                  F
You'd sing the songs and I'd sing with ya
Cm                  A#    D#
We'd get drunk and go to bed

Looking back at all them memories
Lord, I hate to sleep alone
But if you ever get the notion
That you need me, let me know

Chorus:
             A#
'Cause it's just two hours to get there, babe
F
I can make it back about an hour or so
 Cm                          A# 
Hold you close against my skin
   D#
I need a little warmth on a night so cold
 A#
Singing songs you used to sing
    F
The one about the lady in the long, black veil
  Cm                          A# 
Should've seen the warnings signs
 D#
But I loved to hear you wail
 A#
High and lonesome, hard and strong
F
Even if it was a little out of tune
 Cm                             A# 
Hotter than socks on a Jersey Giant
 D#                              A# F Cm  A# 
Lord, I thought you hung the moon
 D#
Lord, I thought you hung the moon

I remember all them winters
Drinking Woodford 'til we drowned
We'd get wind about a party
Bundle up and go to town

Never worry 'bout the police
Never worried much at all
I miss those nights of reckless glory
And I'd come back if you'd just call

Chorus:
'Cause it's just two hours to get there, babe
I can make it back about an hour or so
Hold you close against my skin
I need a little warmth on a night so cold
Singing the songs you used to sing
The one about the lady in the long, black veil
Should've seen warnings signs
But I loved to hear you wail
High and lonesome, hard and strong
Even if it was a little out of tune
Hotter than socks on a Jersey Giant
Lord, I thought you hung the moon

Cm                A#     D#
I left town when we were over
Cm                 A#      D#
'Cause it didn't feel the same
Cm               A#    D#
Every backroad had a memory
Cm                          F
And every memory held your name

Chorus:
'Cause it's just two hours to get there, babe
I can make it back about an hour or so
Hold you close against my skin
Need a little warmth on a night so cold
Singing the songs you used to sing
The one about the lady in the long, black veil
Should've seen warnings signs
Lord, I loved to hear you wail
High and lonesome, hard and strong
Even if it was a little out of tune
Hotter than socks on a Jersey Giant
Lord, I thought you hung the moon

Lord, I thought you hung the moon
