Drive-By Truckers - Guns Of Umpqua Chords

[Intro]
C9  G  D  x2


[Verse 1]
        C9                    G                      D
I see a bird soar through the clouds outside my window
          C9                 G                             D
Smell the fresh paint of the comfort shade on this new fall day
         C9                    G                               D
Feel the coffee surge through morning veins from half an hour ago
         C9                 G                      D
Hear the sound of shots and screams out in the hallway


[Instrumental]
C9 G D x2


[Verse 2] 
            C9                   G                         D
Spent my last weekend camping out again down the road a-ways
            C9                   G                         D
Just me and Joan and a couple of friends on this beautiful trail
          C9                       G                         D
Watch the sun slip down behind the mountain stream in these great cascades
      C9                      G                           D
Saw a mighty hawk swoop down upon a stream to devour its prey


[Bridge]
              Em                     G                             D
And now we're moving chairs in some panic mode to barricade the doors
      Em                   G                        D
As my heart rate surges on adrenaline and nerves, I feel I've been here before
          Em               G                       D
I made it back from hell's attack in some distant, bloody war
         C9                           G    D
Only to stare down hell back home


[Chorus]
C9    G   D
Ooooooooooo
C9    G   D
Ooooooooooo


[Verse 3]
          C9            G                         D
Inside my mind I wander freely past this rocky shore
            C9                      G                    D
Waves crash against the banks where Lewis and Clark explored
          C9                             G                                D
We're all standing in the shadows of our noblest intentions of something more
           C9                            G    D
Than being shot in a classroom in Oregon


[Bridge 2]
          Em                    G                               D
And it's a morning like so many others, with breakfast and birthdays
             Em                        G               
Sun burn the fog away, breeze blew the mist away
           D
My friend Jack is having a baby
            Em                       G                 D
And I see a bird soaring through the clouds outside my window
          C9                       G                      D
Heaven is calling my name from the hallway outside the door
          C9                       G                      D
Heaven is calling my name from the hallway outside the door


[Chorus]
C9    G      D
Oooo oooo ooooooooo
C9    G      D
Oooo oooo ooooooooo
C9    G      D
Oooo oooo ooooooooo


[Outro]
C9 G D
