Sometimes Love Chords by George Strait

Sometimes Love Chords by George Strait

[Intro]
G  Em  D  C
G  D  Em

[Verse]
G         D         Em
She was a sometimes love
   G     D            Em         D    C
An every-now-and-then touch that momentarily
                D
Brought out the best in me
G        D          Em
I didn't think that much of it
G            D   Em D          C
My heart can easily love it or leave it
                     D
Told myself I didn't need it

[Chorus 1]
    Em              Bm
And years have gone by
            C           G     D
She's moved on, so have I, or have I?
     Em         Bm
That part of my life
             C             G
That chapter I thought I'd closed
           Am                  G
I close my eyes, but she's not gone
           C               G
Oh, why am I still holding on?
          Am                  D          G
Sometimes love hangs around a little too long

[Bridge]
  Dm7                             G7                               Cmaj7  Am7
I never thought a thing about the things I said to her and her to me
Dm7                              G7                         Cmaj7        Am7
Love was just a word and all our promises we never meant to keep or so I thought
Dm7       Em7       F
She was a sometimes love
               Dm7                 G          C
But sometimes, love hangs around a little too long

[Interlude]
Am7  Em7  F#m7  B7

[Chorus 2]
    Em              Bm
And years have gone by
            C           G     D
She's moved on, so have I, or have I?
     Em         Bm
That part of my life
             C             G
That chapter I thought I'd closed
           Am                  G
I close my eyes, but she's not gone
           C               G
Oh, why am I still holding on?
Am7       Bm7       C
She was a sometimes love
              Am7                 D          Em   A7
But sometimes love hangs around a little too long
          Am7                 D          G     Em  D  C  G
Sometimes love hangs around a little too long

The Weight Of The Badge Chords by George Strait

The Weight Of The Badge Chords by George Strait

[Intro]
D A D A

[Verse]
D
It's gonna be a long one
D
Another graveyard shift
           G
As he says goodbye
                A
To his wife and kids
             Bm
He spent his life
              G
Just like his dad's
        D   A
Driving away
                        D
Under the weight of the badge

[Verse]
D
He's seen it all
D
In his 15 years
             G
Watching our backs
           A
Facing our fears
              Bm
Lord knows it ain't
        G
No easy task
           D   A
Keeping us safe
                        D
Under the weight of the badge

[Chorus]
              Am
He swore that oath
               G
To protect and serve
                    D
Pours his heart and soul
                A
Into both those words
         Am
Lays his life
       G
On the line
            D
The line he walks
         A
Is razor fine
         Bm
Tempered strength
          G
Is always tough
                   D     A
But he ain't gonna buckle
                        D
Under the weight of the badge

[Bridge]
G
Not that long ago
           G
He woke up in the hospital
         D
With his wife and kids
A              D
Praying by his bed
        G
He said I'm gonna be alright
                 G
There's just sometimes you gotta fight
        D
And the truth is
                       A
Nothing truer could be said
            Bm
I do it for us
                G
And I do it for them
                  D     A
And I ain't gonna buckle
                        D
under the weight of the badge

[Solo]
Am G D A
Am G D D

[Outro]
C          G
It doesn't weigh a lot
  D
Until you put it on
        D
And the weight of it is staggering
C         G
Then duty calls each time
   D
He knows he's gotta answer
    D
And it's all in the hand
             C
And then the woo-ohhh
          G             D
The heavy weight of the badge
D
(no words)
                   C
And he ain't gonna buckle
          G             D
Under the weight of the badge
D
(no words)
                  Am
No he ain't gonna buckle
          G
Under the weight...
            D
Of the badge
