Artist: Iron And Wine
Capo 2
Intro: [A]
[A]They heard a car sputter away too soon
Me and the boys from the billiards room
Found a sh[E]ady tree
Halfway home and going nowhere
[A]Casey was asked for his favorite joke
Fluttered away just before he spoke
But he c[E]ame to me
Halfway home and going nowhere
[D]All I can tell you is h[E]ow we spent the time[A] [E]
[D]Friends are made in the str[E]angest ways
And I’ll [A]miss them by and[E] by
[A]Late in the day and the dust kicked up
Me and the boys with the windows shut
And the mu[E]sic on
Halfway home and going nowhere
[A]Everyone’s summer of ’95
Vivid and there till the tape had died
On our fa[E]vorite song
Halfway home and going nowhere
[A]Hitching a ride with a crusty girl
Me and the boys stole a tie dye shirt
And a k[E]iss or two
Halfway home and going nowhere
[A]Casey mixed words with the mud flap guy
Smothered and bruised in the neon lights
And we a[E]ll went down
Halfway home and going nowhere
[D]All I can tell you is h[E]ow we spent the time[A] [E]
[D]Friends are made in the str[E]angest ways
And I’ll [A]miss them by and[E] by
[A]Back on our feet and the car backs in
Me and the boys at the billiards room
Coming b[E]ack on beer
Halfway home and going nowhere
[A]Casey will crack up, a fight broke lose
I’m in the back thinking I must choose
But I li[E]ke it here
Halfway home and going nowhere
for the ending i play this:
e--------------------------------
B--------0-----------------------
G---1--------------1-------------
D-----2---------2----------------
A--2--------0h2------------------
E--------------------------------
and then play the a chord once
