Hiatt John - Missing Pieces guitar tab

From the album: Beneath This Gruff Exterior

G

I sit all day staring at a leaf.

Em

I know that my time here is brief.

Am

I'd like to get some details down.

C

Before I move on to another town.

G

I met a man he lost both arms.

Em

He got 'em cought up in her charms.

Am

She took the kids and the color TV.

C

He said "I wish she'd taken the rest of me."

(CHORUS)

G

This travelin' life well it aint no good.

Em

I'd quit it honey oh if I could.

Am

A puzzle to me why I even care.

C

The missing pieces are everywhere.

G/Em

G

He drove to dixie to hush his mouth.

Em

She started talkin' like to wore him out.

Am

They found love beneath the southern stars.

C

And some bruises and some scars.

G

He sees her on that back porch swing.

Em

And I believe he would do anything.

Am

Stand all night in the pourin' rain.

C

To wash her memory from her brain.

REPEAT CHORUS

G

A false move here, a stumble there.

Em

A box of letters and a lock of hair.

Am

That's all that's left when I turn out the light.

C

I count the missing pieces every night.

CHORUS 2x
