Je score:

Lake Placid Blues     Tony Joe White

(Am)
At the time I was (G)too young for the (Am)meaning,
But it's become much (G)clearer through the (Am)years.
We gathered (G)round the boy in his (Am)army clothes,
Said good(F)bye, and his (G)mother shed her (Am)tears.

Every day she (G)watched for the (Am)postman,
But the long awaited (G)letter was over(Am)due.
It's not the (G)silence that (Am)makes you crazy,
It's the (F)sound of a (G)heart breaking in (Am)two.

(F) Then it (G)came across the (Am)ocean,
It was (F)hard to under(G)stand the awful (Am)news.
(F) I don't know (G)why I still re(Am)member,
(F)Guess it's just the (G) Lake Placid (Am)Blues. (G)

I (Am)turned 18 and (G)left that part of the (Am)country,
Went down on the (G)Padre Island (Am)coast.
Of all the (G)hard times I (Am)still remember,
The repo(F)ssession of the (G)guitar hurt the (Am)most.

The paupers stood in (G)line outside the (Am)mission,
And I huddled there  be(G)side them in the (Am)rain.
A priest came (G)to the door with (Am)empty eyes,
I could (F)see he no (G)longer felt their (Am)pain.

(F) Some were (G)searchin' for for(Am)giveness,
(F) And others (G)only wanted (Am)food.
(F) I needed (G)more than I could (Am)ask for,
There is no (F)comfort with the (G) Lake Placid (Am)Blues.
(G)  (Am)    (G)  (Am)    (G)  (Am)    (F)  (G)  (Am)

It's hard to find good (G)friends in a (Am)lifetime,
You can usually (G)count 'em on one (Am)hand.
I shivered (G)by the fire and the (Am)dawn was breaking,
And I (F)scattered his (G)ashes on the (Am)sand.

And the (F)silver cranes came (G)over in for(Am)mation,
(F) In a sacred (G)manner they (Am)flew.
(F) And I will (G)always re(Am)member,
The (F)sky a (G)Lake Placid (Am)Blue.
(F)  (G)  (Am)    (F)  (G)  (Am)
(F)  (G)  (Am)    (F)  (G)
Lake Placid (Am)Blue,  (G)  (Am)    (G)  (Am)    (G)  (Am)
(F)  (G)  Lake Placid (Am)Blue.
