Urge For Going,<\/span> Joni Mitchell<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
I <\/span>[<\/span>A<\/span>] <\/span>awoke today and <\/span>[<\/span>G<\/span>]<\/span>found the frost perched <\/span>up<\/span>on the <\/span>[<\/span>A<\/span>]<\/span>town<\/span>
\n<\/span>It <\/span>[<\/span>A<\/span>] <\/span>hovered in a <\/span>[<\/span>G<\/span>]<\/span>frozen sky, then it gobbled summer <\/span>[<\/span>A<\/span>]<\/span>down<\/span>
\n<\/span>And <\/span>[<\/span>D<\/span>] <\/span>When the sun turns <\/span>[<\/span>C<\/span>]<\/span>traitor cold<\/span>
\n<\/span>And <\/span>[<\/span>D<\/span>] <\/span>all<\/span> the<\/span> trees are <\/span>[<\/span>C<\/span>]<\/span>shivering in a naked <\/span>[<\/span>E<\/span>]<\/span>row<\/span>
\n<\/span>I <\/span>[<\/span>A<\/span>] <\/span>get the urge for <\/span>[<\/span>G<\/span>]<\/span>going but I never seem to <\/span>[<\/span>A<\/span>]<\/span>go<\/span>
\n<\/span>I <\/span>[<\/span>G<\/span>] <\/span>get the <\/span>[<\/span>D<\/span>]<\/span>urge for <\/span>[<\/span>A<\/span>]<\/span>going<\/span>\u2026<\/span>
\n<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
When the<\/span> [<\/span>G<\/span>]<\/span>meadow <\/span>[<\/span>D<\/span>]<\/span>grass is <\/span>[<\/span>A<\/span>]<\/span>turning brown<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
[<\/span>G<\/span>]<\/span>Summertime<\/span>[<\/span>D<\/span>]<\/span> is <\/span>[<\/span>A<\/span>]<\/span>falling down and <\/span>[<\/span>A<\/span>]<\/span>winter<\/span>\u2019<\/span>s <\/span>[<\/span>G<\/span>]<\/span>closing <\/span>[<\/span>A<\/span>]<\/span>in<\/span>
\n<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
I <\/span>[<\/span>A<\/span>]<\/span>had a <\/span>girl<\/span> in <\/span>[<\/span>G<\/span>]<\/span>summertime<\/span>, <\/span>With<\/span> [<\/span>G<\/span>]<\/span>summer-colored <\/span>[<\/span>A<\/span>]<\/span>skin<\/span>
\n<\/span>And <\/span>[<\/span>A<\/span>]<\/span>not another <\/span>[<\/span>G<\/span>]<\/span>man<\/span> in town<\/span>, <\/span>My darling’s heart could <\/span>[<\/span>A<\/span>]<\/span>win<\/span>
\n<\/span>But <\/span>[<\/span>D<\/span>]<\/span>when the leaves fell <\/span>[<\/span>C<\/span>]<\/span>on the ground<\/span>
\n<\/span>And <\/span>[<\/span>D<\/span>]<\/span>bully winds came<\/span> &<\/span> [<\/span>C<\/span>]<\/span>pushed them face down in the <\/span>[<\/span>E<\/span>]<\/span>snow<\/span>
\n<\/span>Sh<\/span>e <\/span>[<\/span>A<\/span>]<\/span>got the urge for <\/span>[<\/span>G<\/span>]<\/span>going and I had to let h<\/span>er<\/span> [<\/span>A<\/span>]<\/span>go<\/span>
\n<\/span>Sh<\/span>e <\/span>[<\/span>G<\/span>]<\/span>got the <\/span>[<\/span>D<\/span>]<\/span>urge for <\/span>[<\/span>A<\/span>]<\/span>going<\/span>\u2026<\/span>\u200b\u200b[<\/span>CHORUS<\/span>]<\/span>
\n<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
Now the <\/span>[<\/span>A<\/span>]<\/span>warriors of <\/span>[<\/span>G<\/span>]<\/span>winter they gave a cold triumphant <\/span>[<\/span>A<\/span>]<\/span>shout<\/span>
\n<\/span>And <\/span>[<\/span>A<\/span>]<\/span>all that stays is <\/span>[<\/span>G<\/span>]<\/span>dying and all that lives is getting <\/span>[<\/span>A<\/span>]<\/span>out<\/span>
\n<\/span>[<\/span>D<\/span>]<\/span>See the geese in <\/span>[<\/span>C<\/span>]<\/span>chevron flight <\/span>[<\/span>D<\/span>]<\/span>flappin <\/span>&<\/span> racin <\/span>[<\/span>C<\/span>]<\/span>on before the<\/span> [<\/span>E<\/span>]<\/span>snow<\/span>
\n<\/span>They’ve <\/span>[<\/span>A<\/span>]<\/span>got the urge for <\/span>[<\/span>G<\/span>]<\/span>going <\/span>& <\/span>they’ve got the wings <\/span>to<\/span> [<\/span>A<\/span>]<\/span>go<\/span>
\n<\/span>They <\/span>[<\/span>G<\/span>]<\/span>get the <\/span>[<\/span>D<\/span>]<\/span>urge for <\/span>[<\/span>A<\/span>]<\/span>going<\/span>\u2026<\/span>\u200b\u200b[<\/span>CHORUS<\/span>]<\/span>
\n<\/span>
\n<\/span>I’ll <\/span>[<\/span>A<\/span>]<\/span>ply the fire with <\/span>[<\/span>G<\/span>]<\/span>kindling and pull the blankets to my <\/span>[<\/span>A<\/span>]<\/span>chin<\/span>
\n<\/span>I’ll <\/span>[<\/span>A<\/span>]<\/span>lock the vagrant winter <\/span>[<\/span>G<\/span>]<\/span>out and bolt my wandering <\/span>[<\/span>A<\/span>]<\/span>in<\/span>
\n<\/span>I’d <\/span>[<\/span>D<\/span>]<\/span>like to call back <\/span>[<\/span>C<\/span>]<\/span>summertime <\/span>& <\/span>[<\/span>D<\/span>]<\/span>h<\/span>ave her stay for <\/span>[<\/span>C<\/span>]<\/span>just another month or <\/span>[<\/span>E<\/span>]<\/span>so<\/span>
\n<\/span>But she’s <\/span>[<\/span>A<\/span>]<\/span>got the urge for <\/span>[<\/span>G<\/span>]<\/span>going so I guess she’ll have to <\/span>[<\/span>A<\/span>]<\/span>go<\/span>
\n<\/span>She <\/span>[<\/span>G<\/span>]<\/span>get<\/span>s<\/span> the <\/span>[<\/span>D<\/span>]<\/span>urge for <\/span>[<\/span>A<\/span>]<\/span>going when the <\/span>[<\/span>G<\/span>]<\/span>meadow <\/span>[<\/span>D<\/span>]<\/span>grass is <\/span>[<\/span>A<\/span>]<\/span>turning brown<\/span>
\n<\/span>And <\/span>[<\/span>G<\/span>]<\/span>all her <\/span>[<\/span>D<\/span>]<\/span>empires are <\/span>[<\/span>A<\/span>]<\/span>falling down<\/span>, <\/span>And <\/span>[<\/span>A<\/span>]<\/span>winter’s <\/span>[<\/span>G<\/span>]<\/span>closing <\/span>[<\/span>A<\/span>]<\/span>in<\/span>
