[Intro]
 
F# B F# C# F#
 
[Verse 1]
 
F#
I'm going down to the greyhound station
              B
Gonna get a ticket to ride
       F#
Gonna find a big fat lady with 2 or 3 kids
      C#
And sit down by her side
     F#                                                  B
And ride until the sun comes up and down around me about 2 or 3 times
           F#
Smoking cigarettes in the last seat
C#
Trying to hide my sorrow from the people I meet
 
[Chorus]
 
         F#
And get along with it all
               B
Go down where people say y'all
        F#
Sing a song with a friend
           C#
Change the shape that I'm in
        F#
And get back in the game
          B             F# C#
And start playing again
 
[Verse 2]
 
F#                                               B
I'd like to stay but I might have to go to start over again
           F#
I might go back down to Texas
                          C#
I might go somewhere that I never been
       F#
And get up in the morning and go out at night
      B
And I won't have to go home
            F#
Get used to being alone
           C#
Change the words to this song
          F#
And start singing again
 
 
[Instrumental]
 
C# F# F# B B F# C# F#
 
[Verse 3]
 
I'm tired of running round
                                        B
Looking for answers to questions that I already know
        F#
I could build me a castle of memories
             C#
Just to have somewhere to go
          F#
Count the days and the nights that it takes
                   B
To get back in the saddle again
         F#
Feed the pigeons some clay
         C#
Turn the night into day
      F#                   B                F#
Start talking again when I know what to say
 
[Verse 4]
