Zach Bryan - Ticking

Capo: 2nd fret

[Intro]
E A E
E B
E A C#m B
E A C#m B

[Verse 1]
E A
I’m cutting ties with things that bind my heart to this world
C#m B
I love you and I’m willing but I cannot keep you girl
E A
Philly by the morning and Ohio by the night
C#m B
The thing about a long rope is you can’t hold on too tight

[Interlude]
E A C#m B

[Verse 2]
E A
Wooden floors and coffee cups stepped on and all used up
C#m B
But I reckon that’s what morning are for
E A
And everyone thinks they know me now in these close minded leave me towns
C#m B
But I’m too young to even know myself

[Chorus]
E B C#m
There’s wheels running down the interstate
A E B C#m A
Lord I’ll wait another day cuz I ain’t close to you
E B C#m
There’s time ticking on the interstate
A E B C#m A
And Lord I hate that I ain’t close to you

[Interlude]
E B C#m A

[Verse 3]
E A
And all my friends have moved away, some got jobs and some got saveds
C#m B
They talk to me like I am still that kid
E A
The fighting, fiendin Okie son, the restless, reckless, hopeful one
C#m B
Who once was proud of everything he did

[Verse 4]
E A
Do you remember 25 long legs and loving time
C#m B
Seems like 10 lifetimes ago
E A
I’m cutting ties with things that bind my heart to this world
C#m B
I love you and I’m willing but I really have to go

[Chorus]
E B C#m
There’s wheels running down the interstate
A E B C#m A
Lord I’ll wait another day cuz I ain’t close to you
E B C#m A
There’s time ticking on the interstate, I’m fighting fate
E B C#m Á
And Lord I hate that I ain’t close to you

[Interlude]
E B C#m A

[Verse 5]
E A
I’m cutting ties with things that bind my heart to this world
C#m B
I love you and I’m willing but I cannot keep you girl
E A
Philly by the morning and Ohio by the night
C#m B
The thing about a long rope is you can’t hold on too tight
