The Romany Rye – Long way down

capo 2nd

I came down the hard way,
With eyes to curse the cruel days
Lips to laugh the whole night, through

I bought a ladder from a friend,
That said that I could fly
Since my thoughts have turned black as midnight
( Tab from: http://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/t/the_romany_rye/long_way_down_crd.html )
Cause it’s a long way down, long way down
Long way down, from the bottom

From cheap ritz and burgundy,
The stale smell of mystery
I think no one here,
Is quite what they seem

The siren sings the sweet songs,
To Judas on the front lawn
While Dianna’s in the bathroom,
Getting stoned

Cause it’s a long way down, long way down
Long way down, from the bottom

The ghost of Ophellia,
Said “What you’d like I could steal for ya.”
But what you need,
you don’t cause to think

Now my voice, could never carry
The lips that gave it wings,
But my smile could tell a lie
With no words

Cause it’s a long way down, long way down
Long way down, from the bottom

It’s a long way down, long way down
Long way down, from the bottom

The Romany Rye – Dear Holly

the break I think is just F and C

capo 2nd

Dear Holly, have you seen the rain?
I am a ghost town, with seven empty lakes
And the times they are strange, they show no signs of change
I am cast down like the belly of a snake

No harvest, no kingdom come
One promise, again to never flood
Calm as the sea, on a day with no breeze
My tears have turned to blood

Backs folding, beneath all the lies
We need water to grow, and wine to die
And the reasons they are few, All my dreams came untrue
And my desire could not be satisfied

Time driftin’, across seven blue seas
For strong winds, blow as they please
Under God’s great sky, we ask for reasons why
We are all bound to have days like these

Dear Holly, can you feel the rain?
Or the soft breeze, gently to your face
Oh the times they are strange, they are bound to change
Every good man, needs a little break

The Romany Rye – Brother

always the same chords, but before the chorus the D
isn’t played

Brother I’m a fool, can’t you see
Sister there’s just no foolin` me
Brother I’m a fool, can’t you see
Sister there’s just no foolin` me

If time, is in motion
I’ll be, high as the tide
With no peace, to speak of being satisfied

If love, is a language,
I will cut out my tongue
No use for singin’ the songs already been sung

If Spring has the answer,
lonely winter,
you’ll be on my mind

Brother I’m a fool, can’t you see
Sister there’s just no foolin` me
Brother I’m a fool, can’t you see
Sister there’s just no foolin` me

The faith, of a sea
Could move a mountain indeed
Brother I’m a fool, can’t you see

Peace, like a river both deep and wide
Stand on the banks and watch her pass me by
If love has an answer, then momma you’ll be on my mind

Brother I’m a fool, can’t you see
Sister there’s just no foolin` me
Brother I’m a fool, can’t you see
Sister there’s just no foolin` me

Brother I’m a fool, can’t you see
Sister there’s just no fool in me
Brother I’m a fool, can’t you see
Sister there’s just no foolin` me

Brother I’m a fool, can’t you see
Sister there’s just no foolin` me
Brother I’m a fool, can’t you see
Sister there’s just no foolin` me
