---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Often Is a Word I Seldom Use - John Prine ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Email: Dgibson@netscape.com Tuning: Standard Artist: John Prine Album: Sweet Revenge Year: 1973 Intro: AEAs4 AEAs4 Asus4 I know that you're sad Asus4 I know that you're lonely E A you lie awake 'till way past when Asus4 I want you to know that I'm leaving you only E A 'cause I might not get the chance a-gain. Chorus: Asus4 I'm cold and I'm tired and I can't stop coughing E A long enough to tell you all of the news Asus4 I'd like to tell you that I'll see you more often E A often is a word I seldom use Asus4 E A often is a word I seldom use. A Tell me, where did the weekend go? A Tell me, where did the weekend go? A Went like thunder, felt like snow. A Went like thunder, felt like snow. You must think my life's a circus watching me laughing and slapping my thighs how'd ya like to die in the house of mirrors with nobody around to close your eyes. (Repeat Chorus) Going down to the Greyhound station going back home and get what's mine got me a date with the ten o'clock special gonna be there at a quarter to nine. (Repeat Chorus)
