Tear Stained Eyed Chords
Tear Stained Eyed by Kasey Chambers is a beginner-friendly guitar song played in the key of G with a capo on the 3st fret. It uses the chords G, C and D. Use the transpose and diagram tools on this page to change the key, see each shape, or simplify the chords.
This is the same key as Kasey plays it.
It's my first ever attempt at transcribing.
G C
Walkin down Main Street, gettin' to know the concrete
D G
Lookin for a purpose from a neon sign.
G C
I would meet you anywhere western sun meets the air
D G
I'll hit the road, never lookin' behind.
G Am
Can you deny, there's nothin' greater
C G
nothin' more than travelin' hands of time
G Am
St. Genevieve can hold back the water,
D G
but saints don't bother with a tear stained eye.
Seein' traces of the stars that came before
written in the pavement, still askin' for more
when the hours don't move along, worn-out wood and familiar songs
To hear your voice is not enough, is more than a shame.
(chorus)
Like a man said, rode hard and put away wet
throw away the bad news and put it to rest
If learnin is livin', and the truth is a state of mind
you'll find it's better at the end of the line.
(chorus)
