Capo 2, all chord s are relative to the capo
[Verse 1]
...I've a
G Am
Tale or two to tell you, But the
Em D
Booze just makes me slow
G Am
I could rack my brain remembering,
D Em
But I guess maybe I'll just go
...There's a
G Am
Method to my madness, there's a
Em D
Secret to this town, there's a
G Am
Reason why I'm still living here, though I
D Em
Can't think of it right now
[Chorus]
D Em
I made a promise when I left for the coast
G Am
Twenty long years ago
D Em
I made a life out of chasing a ghost
G Am
Twenty years takes its toll
D
I got along for a while I guess, But it
G Am
took everything I had
D
I gotta find a way out of this mess, I'm in
G Am
trouble and it sure looks bad
D
yeah....

[Verse 2]
...I've a
G Am
Thought or two to share with you, But the
Em D
Dope tends to cloud my mind, I
G Am
Destroyed my health, searching for myself, but there
D Em
Aint nothing there to find
...There's a
G Am
Debt or two I owe you, but the
Em D
Gambling left me poor. I
G Am
Put up my name in the sacred game and
D Em
Forgot what I was playing for
[Chorus]
D Em
I made a promise when I left for the coast
G Am
Twenty long years ago
D Em
I made a life out of chasing a ghost
G Am
Twenty years takes its toll

trouble and it sure looks bad

I gotta find a way out of this mess, I'm in
G Am

This is mostly right however, if you play CM instead of Am it sounds more accurate. And where you have DM on the lyric “I got a long for a while I guess” that one should be an Am
+1
As well as “the booze just makes me slow” should be Em to AM
