East Side Of Sorrow Acordes

Strumming is a little weird the first half so mix in some random string plucking
so it doesn't sound repetitive.
 
* - Strum once

G                      C          G                          D        G
  Eighteen years old, full of hate, they shipped me off in a motorcade
                            C       G                                        D         G
They said boy you're gonna fight a war, and you don't even know what you're fighting for
                       C      G                            D         G
I lost friends in the August heat, at night it was God I'd always meet
                        C        G                              D         G
I said Lord, won't you bring me home, I got women in the west I wanna hold
 
 
[Verse 2]
                 C        G                               D        G
I lost you in a waiting room, after sleeping there for a week or two
                    C      G                                D            G
Doctor said he did all he could, you were the last thing I had that was good
                           C     G                                 D       G
So I walked miles on the Tulsa street, lights started beaming in from the east
                  C      G                        D         G
6 a.m. and fucked up again, asking God where the hell he'd been
 
G
 
 
[Chorus]
            C                  G                       D              Em
He said the sun's gonna rise tomorrow, somewhere on the east side of sorrow
C                      G                    D                         Em
Better pack your bags west, stick out your chest and then hit the road
     C                 G                       D              Em
The sun's gonna rise tomorrow, somewhere on the east side of sorrow
  C                        G             D              Em
Don't give it a reason to follow, let it be then let it go
       C  G  D             Em
Let it be...   then let it go

Heard your brother lost his mind in the city last fall, was it his blood, or his conscience, or the alcohol?
                                   C         G                                          D         G
Did the Navy do him well or did he wind up sick, like every other brave boy from these run down sticks?
                          C       G                                               D        G
Do you ever get tired of singin' songs, like all your pain is just another fuckin' sing along?
                           C        G                                                D        G
If you ever get the time come on home, I heard Turnpike's back together and they're writin' songs
