Alison Krauss - Heartstings guitar chord

I do use the standard G if I am going to go to the chorus

directly after, so I can walk up to the C, but most other places

I do not. You can do whatever you want.

(Verse 1)

G D Em D

Way up north, where the snow flies

C D G D

and the sun don't hardly shine

G D Em D

If it weren't for, my true love

C D

I'd have long ago lost my mind

D G D

I'd have long ago lost my mind

(Verse 2)

There's good folks here and good folks there

most everywhere I go

But the land of my heart is down

where the snow white cotton grows

where the snow white cotton grows

(chorus)

C Bm Am G

When the river runs over from the melting snow

C D G

we will take to the higher ground

C Bm Am G

when the water goes down again, we'll saddle our old paint

C D G

we'll be homeward bound

C Bm D G

me and my love will be homeward bound

(solo) play verse

(verse 3)

Heartstrings hold tighter than the roots of a live oak tree

holding through tornado wind

tougher than timber, stronger than steel

they'll guide me back southward again

they'll guide me back southward again

(repeat chorus)
