first verse is sung without accompaniment:\r\n\r\nTell her I'm lost,\r\nbut that's alright,\r\n'cause after twenty-something years, I can barely walk the line.\r\nOnly messengers can tell her\r\nhow I'm missing her tonight.\r\n\r\nMuch of the song is played with a fancy finger picking rhythm, but these are the chords used.\r\n\r\n\r\n[Intro]\r\n[ch]G[/ch]   [ch]C[/ch]
