Darryl Rahn - Mansfield

      [Intro] x4  
G    

         Em
Well the holidays are over
C                                G
Families are scattered across the state
        Em
All the lights are back in boxes
C                                   G
Trees out by the road to face their fate
        Em
An’ the night has finally settled
     C                            G
Like dust on this one streetlight road
      D
I’m a mile out of Mansfield
C                Am7        G
Waitin’ for the clouds to unload

          Em
There’s a station up ahead
      C                      G
And a lifetime receding in my rear
        Em
An’ the stereo keeps spitting out
     C                           G
Some ancient song nobody wants to hear
        Em
An’ the heater’s hardly working
        C                   G
But the traffic has finally slowed
       D
Twenty miles out of Mansfield
C                Am7        G
Waitin’ for the clouds to unload

          F                    Em              G
For every hatchet you bury you carry a heavier load

      Em
Maybe there’s no rhyme or reason
   C                             G
We all grow out of everything one day
       Em
And it kills me to admit it
     C                             G
That place grew out of me the same way
        Em
Now the universe is waking
      C                                   G
But a sunrise couldn’t shake this kind of cold
              D
Three hundred miles out of Mansfield
C               Am7         G
Waitin’ for the clouds to unload
              D                      Cmaj7
Three hundred miles out of Mansfield
