Shotgun Down The Avalanche

Written by Shawn Colvin/John Leventhal

	  		Dm                          G   C/G   G   C/G  Dm 
I'm riding shotgun down the avalanche   
Dm                            G    C/G  G  C/G  Dm 
Tumbling and falling down the avalanche   
      Bb    C           F     F/E   G 
So be quiet tonight the stars shine bright 
        Bb          C          G Gsus  G 
On this mountain of new fallen snow 
           Bb          C     F    F/E  G 
But I will raise up my voice into the  void 
Bb               Am         Dm  G   C/G  G  
You have left me nowhere to go 
Dm                          G     C/G     
I love you so much and it's so bizzare 
G                   C/G    G      Dm 
A mystery that goes on and on and on 
Dm                           G         C/G   
It is the best thing and the very most hard 
    G        C/G G    Dm 
And we don't     get  along 
      Bb        C                F        F/E G  
After countless appeals, we keep spinning our wheels 
        Bb          C           G Gsus  G  
On this mountain of new fallen snow 
     Bb         C               F    F/E G 
So I let go the catch and we're over the edge 
Bb               Am         Dm 
You have left me nowhere to go 
Dm                             G    C/G  G  
I'm riding shotgun down the avalanche 
 
SOLO 
 
Dm                             G       C/G 
Sometimes you make me loose my will to live 
    G             C/G             Dm 
And just become a beacon for your soul 
Dm                           G       C/G 
The past is stronger than my will to forgive  
   G           C/G             Dm 
Forgive you or myself, I don't know 
Dm                           G    C/G   Dm   
I'm riding shotgun down the avalanche   
Dm                            G    C/G  G  C/G  Dm 
Tumblin' and fallin' down the avalanche  
      Bb    C           F     F/E   G 
So be quiet tonight  be sure to step lightly 
        Bb                     G  Gsus G 
On this mountain of new fallen snow  
           Bb          C     F    F/E  G 
But I will raise up my voice into the void 
Bb               Am         Dm   
You have left me nowhere to go 
                            G   C/G      G  
I'm riding shotgun down the avalanche
