 SPEED OF THE SOUND OF LONELINESS (John Prine)
 ---------------------------------------------
 [Nanci Griffith's version is actually in C, with
  a capo on the 5th fret.]
 [Each chord is one 2/2 measure] 
 G   G   C   C   D   D   G   G
 [intro]
 
 G                G                       C     C
   You come home late and you come home early
 D              D                        G     G
   You come on big when you're feeling small
 G                  G                         C     C
   You come home straight and you come home curly
 D                D                  G    G
   Sometimes you don't come home at all
 
 G                 G           C          C
   So what in the world's come over you
 D             D              G            G
   And what in heaven's name have I done
 G                     G                    C           C
   You've broken the speed of the sound of loneliness
 D                  D                         G     G
   You're out there running just to be on the run
 
 Well I got a heart that burns with a fever
 And I got a worried and a jealous mind
 How can a love that'll last forever
 Get left so far behind
 
 So what in the world's come over you
 And what in heaven's name have I done
 You've broken the speed of the sound of loneliness
 You're out there running just to be on the run
 
 [Instrumental, same chords as one verse]
 
 It's a mighty mean and a dreadful sorrow
 It's crossed the evil line today (?)
 How can you ask about tomorrow
 When we ain't got one word to say
 
 So what in the world's come over you
 And what in heaven's name have I done
 You've broken the speed of the sound of loneliness
 You're out there running just to be on the run
 
 So what in the world's come over you
 And what in heaven's name have I done
 You've broken the speed of the sound of loneliness
 You're out there running just to be on the run
 You're out there running just to be on the run
 D                  D                         G     C    D    G.
   You're out there running just to be on the run
