All Just To Get To You Music and Lyrics by Joe Ely
All Just To Get To You
Intro: G G F C (repeat)
Verse 1:
I have stumbled on the plains
Staggered in the wind
Stood at a crossroad or two
Cried to a river
Swept to the sea
All just to get to you
Verse 2: I have flagged a yellow cab Hopped a rusty freight Sang till my lips turned blue Flown a silver bird On the tops of the clouds All just to get to you
Chorus:
I ran too hard,
I played too Rough
I gave my Love
Not near Enough
I bled too red
I cried too blue
I beat my fist
Against the moon
All just to get to you
Verse 3:
I have run from St. Paul To Wichita Falls Call'd you from sunny Baton Rouge Hocked everything All just to get to you
Chorus
Break: Bb Bbsus (repeat four times) then hit: C C C
Verse 4: Where the mighty ocean roars To the lands of the Hopi and the Sioux I walked the desert sands Crossed the Rio Grande All just to get to you
Verse 5: I have stumbled on the plains Staggered in the wind Stood at a crossroad or two Cried to a river Swept to the sea All just to get to you
