Forever And The Same

                G
The pump is all froze
        C             G
And the horse is feet up
    C                       G        C
The grader has levelled the mailbox away
          G            C
Winter is turning your blues eyes to grey


[Chorus]
        F         C              F           D
But the comfort remains that you know in the end
    C              F        G
The jukebox sounds ever the same


[Verse 2]

By the snare’s mute call
    C            G
The old hound is swayed
            C                        G          C
But there’s nothing much keeping the coyotes at bay
          G             C
Time even scatters your heartaches, they say


[Chorus]
        F         C              F           D
But the comfort remains that you know in the end
    C              F        G
The jukebox sounds ever the same


[Verse 3]

The clapboard is peeling
        C          G
And the roof has a flap
    C                          G        C
The scrap-man has lured the MacCormick away
                 G                   C
The trailer-park calls you, do not delay


[Chorus]
        F         C              F           D
But the comfort remains that you know in the end
    C              F        G
The jukebox sounds ever the same


[Verse 4]

Your mate’s on the dole
        C            G
And the kid’s in the pen
    C                            G           C
The sow has just landscaped your garden once more
                 G                 C
Your fortune was long burned right onto the bar


[Chorus]
        F         C              F           D
But the comfort remains that you know in the end
    E              F        G
The jukebox sounds ever the same
