Intro
Em    Bm    Am    G D
 
Verse 1
       Em       Bm              Am
I met you in a biker bar in longview
        G               D           Em
Just a shaggy kid with nothing to lose
       Bm                     Am
So I swaggered up to make my move
               G  D
Wait for your que
 
Verse 2
              Em           Bm              Am
I'd like to think that it happened all gracefully
               G                  D        Em
I'll make you laugh and take you home with me
         Bm                       Am      G  D
But it wasn't how I'd like it to be
 
Pre-Chorus
       Em                        Bm
'Cause then walked in a problem boy with a beard
         Am                       G   D
With a spider tattoo behind his left ear
         Em               Bm                       Am     G D
Saying "Back away or get set to swallow your own teeth"
          B
But you know me
 
Chorus
        Em              Bm
'Cause we're all going ninety to nothing
 Am
Looking for someone
 G            D
Looking for something
 Em               Bm                Am              G    D
Searching for a crutch or a cup to pour us in hope morrison
 
Instrumental
Em    Bm    Am    G  D
 
Verse 3
              Em
Now keep in mind
           Bm                       Am
She had a shadow on her left green eye
         G                     D           Em
And her hands were a bit more shaky than mine
          Bm                        Am
I can't imagine he's the greatest guy
          G  D
To this dime
 
Verse 4
            Em          Bm                 Am
So here I stand with a soda bottle in my hand
           G                   D      Em
Say "I'll protect her" but I know I can't
           Bm                    Am          G          D
But I was raised to be a better man then to stand for this
 
Pre-Chorus
    Em              Bm
And he got in a few shots to the face
    Am              G             D               Em
And I got in a few shots to the space around his head
                Bm                      Am
I thought "I'm dead" he threw me in an alley, took my keys
           G       D
And drove away as I bled
 
Chorus
        Em              Bm
'Cause we're all going ninety to nothing
 Am
Looking for someone
 G           D
Looking for something
 Em             Bm

     Am             G    D

Bridge
C                                               Em   D
  And as I lay I see the door open up from the bar
C                                                Em   D
  I see a pretty brown halo like a light in the dark
C                                                    Em    D
  She patched me up and picked me off of the gravel ground
           C                                  B
She said “My name is Hope“ and she asked me if I could stand around
 
Chorus
(one strum each *sing quietly*)
        Em              Bm
'Cause we're all going ninety to nothing
 Am
Looking for someone
 G            D
Looking for something
 Em              Bm
Searching for a crutch or a cup
    Am              G    D
To pour us on hope morrison
(Carry out the G and D and sing louder)
 
Chorus
     Em                 Bm
And now I've slowed to nothing from ninety
    Am                     G         D
I don't need to wait for someone to find me
 Em              Bm        Am              G    D    Em
Houses full of heroes to adore us in hope morrison
