Ragged And Real

D                 G          D        Bm             A      G
Sing me something simple and sad, and keep it in the key of D
            A                     G                     Bm       A           G
I've got my fiddle out, I want to play it real bad, but I'm only good in one key
D           G                 D          Bm      A    G
Sing it out straight from the heart that old time melody
         A                      G                  Bm       A    G
and I'll join right in with the counter-part, some lonesome harmony

[Chorus 1]
A                     D              G             D
None of the songs I remember seem to fit the way I feel,
Em               Bm                      Bm        A          G
I need somethin' lonely and lost, I need somethin' ragged and real

[Verse 2]
D                    G            D            Bm           A      G
Drunk and desperate, helpless and high, it all feels like a thin mirage
A                       G         Bm          A          G
I'm going nowhere just getting by sleepin' in friend's garage
D                 G           D               Bm      A      G
Tell me something trusted and true that won't do this moment wrong
             A                          G             Bm            A       G
you've got a look in your eye and I can tell that you know just the perfect song

[Chorus 2]
A                    D              G             D
None of the ones I remember seem to fit the way I feel,
Em               Bm                      Bm        A          G
I need somethin' lonely and lost, I need somethin' ragged and real

[Verse 3]
D                  G             D              Bm       A    G
I keep on pushing, that's what I do, there's no other way I know
      A                       G                              Bm     A       G
I get out of the valley and I think I'm through, but there's always more to go
D                       G         D      Bm        A         G
It's hard country we're traveling in the sun deals down it's wrath,
    A                    G            Bm       A      G
but every morning we get up again and get back on the path.

[Chorus 3]
A                     D              G             D
None of the songs I remember seem to fit the way I feel,
Em               Bm                      Bm        A          G
I need somethin' lonely and lost, I need somethin' ragged and real
