Ready As Ill Never Be Chords by Tanya Tucker
[Intro]
NONE
[Verse]
C
I felt you calling
Em
I saw you start
Am G F
From the old town movies to the bars on the boulevard
C
The bells were ringing
Em
For a gypsy's soul
Am G F
Straight to the smart mouth little girl from Seminal
[Verse]
C
All you outlaws
G
And the Opry queens
Am G F
They wrapped those golden arms around the baby of the family
Am
To stand beside you then
G
Was more than enough
F
I always was and always will be looking up
[Chorus]
C
So gather 'round now
G
It's time to sing
Am G F
It's bittersweet but it's a hell of a silver lining
C
I tell the same ol' stories
G
Y'all get your wings
Am G F
And I get better every time I kiss a weathered cheek
C
And watchin' doves fly
G
Sooner than me
F
I guess I'm ready
G C
Ready as I'll never be
[Verse]
C
The snow don't fall on the Willcox
G
And the whippoorwill don't lie
Am G
Are the two things you can count on
F
And if you blink you're going to miss it twice
C
Even if I saw it coming
G
Even if I wanted to
Am
You're just going to the one place left
F
That I can't follow you
[Chorus]
C
So gather 'round now
G
It's time to sing
Am G F
It's bittersweet but it's a hell of a silver lining
C
I tell the same ol' stories
G
Y'all get your wings
Am G
And I get better every time
D
But I don't know
[Break]
F
Ain't no debt to repay
G
Even if your light years away
E7
May the circle be unbroken
Am
Let it breathe through ya
G D
So one sweet day
F
Woah, happy days
[Chorus]
C
Gather 'round now
G
It's time to sing
Am G F
It's bittersweet but it's a hell of a silver lining
C
I tell the same ol' stories
G
Y'all get your wings
Am G F
And I get better every time I kiss a weathered cheek
C
And watchin' doves fly
G
Sooner than me
E
I guess I'm ready
Am G F
Ready as I'll never be
N.C. C
I'm ready as I'll never be
