All Just To Get To You

Intro: G G F C (repeat)

Verse 1:
G
I have stumbled on the plains
G
Staggered in the wind
G
Stood at a crossroad or two
D
Cried to a river
D
Swept to the sea
G C G
All just to get to you

Verse 2:
I have flagged a yellow cab
Hopped a rusty freight
Sang till my lips turned blue
Flown a silver bird
On the tops of the clouds
All just to get to you

Chorus:
C
I ran too hard,
G
I played too Rough
C
I gave my Love
G
Not near Enough
C
I bled too red
G
I cried too blue
D
I beat my fist
D
Against the moon
C G
All just to get to you

Verse 3:

I have run from St. Paul
To Wichita Falls
Call`d you from sunny Baton Rouge
Hocked everything
>From my watch to my ring
All just to get to you

Chorus

Break:
Bb Bbsus (repeat four times)
then hit: C C C

Verse 4:
>From the California Shore
Where the mighty ocean roars
To the lands of the Hopi and the Sioux
I walked the desert sands
Crossed the Rio Grande
All just to get to you

Verse 5:
I have stumbled on the plains
Staggered in the wind
Stood at a crossroad or two
Cried to a river
Swept to the sea
All just to get to you

Repeat and fade:
G F C
All just to get to you
