Empty Hearts
by Josh Ritter


chords figured out by Matt Rowley


Eb                   Bb
So save all of your light
               Cm             Gm
For those who can't sleep at night
         Ab         Gm            Bb
And who can't even sing to their shadows
        Eb          Bb
Oh they ride into town
           Cm             Gm
And they throw the shots down
          Ab            Gm            Bb
And they save the last round for the windows

         Ab                    Eb                  Bb
Singing don't let me into this year with an empty heart
....
With an empty heart
 Ab                     Eb                  Bb
Don't let me into this year with an empty heart

      Eb             Bb
I'm inside with my friends
          Cm         Gm
We build fires and pretend
          Ab               Gm      Bb
That the night could just bend on forever
Eb                   Bb
While outside in the frost
         Cm             Gm
Are the wolves and the lost
       Ab          Gm        Bb
And we sing to the dogs or whoever

         Ab                    Eb                  Bb
Singing don't let me into this year with an empty heart
...
With an empty heart
      Ab                Eb                Bb
Don't let me into this year with an empty heart

          Eb             Bb
There's a friend that I have
        Cm           Gm
And for her I'll go back
         Ab           Gm               Bb
You see all of these empties that I'm holding
             Eb        Bb
They're too much for a man
       Cm          Gm
Empty arms, empty hands
            Ab             Gm          Bb
And she'll know me by the sound of my hoping

        Ab                      Eb                 Bb
Singing don't let me into this year with an empty heart
...
With an empty heart
       Ab               Eb                  Bb
Don't let me into this year with an empty heart
