Everything That's on My Mind
Charlie Peacock
Words and music by Charlie Peacock
(c) 1995 Andi Beat Goes On Music, Inc. (ASCAP) 

  A   D2     A   D2     A   D2     A   D2
[ / / / / ][ / / / / ][ / / / / ][ / / / / ]
A              D2          A           D2
I've been out here for so long riding fences
    A                D2                 A               D2
I don't know what it finally was that brought me to my senses
E                             D
Was it the cold?  Was it the loneliness?
E                       D               A  D2  A  D2
Was it my shame at the sickness of my flesh?

Rebuilding fences is an introspective undertaking
There's no diversion to distract you from the deeper aching
I cut the wood, I swung the hammer
Every strike like a flash of understanding

Chorus:
E /D             A                 D2
I    have to say everything that's on my mind
   A               D2          C#m  D2
I can not keep it bottled up inside me
           A               D2               A
I have to pray, it took me far too long to find out
         D2
That my weakness is my testimony

  A   D2     A   D2     A   D2     A   D2     A   D2     A   D2
[ / / / / ][ / / / / ][ / / / / ][ / / / / ][ / / / / ][ / / / / ]

All my labor was the protest demonstration
Of a man who had the gall to call conviction condemnation
Till I cried for grace and I finally meant it
Till I left my pride behind me nailed to those fences

CHORUS
  A   D2     A   D2     A   D2     A   D2     A
[ / / / / ][ / / / / ][ / / / / ][ / / / / ][ / / / / ][ / / / / ]
D                                         F#m
Up in this altitude the cold at night can kill
    D                                   F#m
My fingers got so numb, my body got so chilled
     D                 C#m7                  Bm7
It seeps into your bones and devastates your will
     A            D                 A          D
Oh, I'm not the strongest man, no, I'm not the only man
     A            D
No, I'm not the strongest man that's been broken in those hills

CHORUS
    A   D2     A   D2     A   D2     A   D2         A
