Smoke From a Distant Fire (1977)
CAPO - 2nd Fret
[Intro]
- - -
-
You left me here on your way to paradise
-
You pulled the rug right out from under my life
-
I know where you goin to I knew when you came home last night
Cause your eyes had a mist from the smoke of a distant fire
- - -
-
Lord, I was stung shoulda seen it come a long time ago
-
When I realized the reality gave me a roll
-
If things are the same then explain why your kiss is so cold
And that mist in your eyes feels like rain on the fire in my soul
[Bridge]
This lying, and cryin s upsettin and getting no where
It don t stack up, so slack up and pack up, I just don t care
Don t let the screen door hit you, on your way out
Don t you drown when your dream boat runs onto the ground
- - -
-
I d just like to know do you love him or just making time
-
By filling his glass with your fast flowing bitter-sweet lies
-
He ll face the after taste when you come home late some night
With your eyes all a mist from the smoke of a distant fire
- - -
Girl your eyes have a mist from the smoke of a distant fire
Well your eyes have a mist from the smoke of a distant fire
Your eyes have the mist from the smoke of a distant fire
Well your eyes have a mist from the smoke of a distant fire
Oh girl your eyes have a mist from the smoke of a distant fire
Mist in your eyes from a distant fire
Girl your eyes have a mist from the smoke of a distant
A distant fire
