CAPO II

INTRO G Am C G

G                          Am
        C                          G
LEFT NO REFUSE FOR THE LONESOME IN ME
G                                     Am
I’M BLOWING HOLES IN THE MOON FOR THE MORNING
   C                             G
AT DAYLIGHT I CAN FINALLY BE SET FREE 

HE LEFT HER STANDING DOWN IN THE SHADOWS
OF A CRACKLIN, CRACKLIN ROADHOUSE LIGHT
BUT THERE’S JUST NO COMFORT IN LOVIN A STRANGER
SO I GUESS I’LL RIDE ALONE TONIGHT

CHORUS

G                                   Am   
AND I SAID MY SWEET ANGEL MUST HAVE DROPPED ME
              C                                   G
WHY AM I STILL OUT HERE AND I’M STRUGGLIN WITH MY LOAD
G                                    Am
BUT THERE’S ONE THING THIS HIGHWAY’S TAUGHT ME
          C                           G
IT’S ONLY TRUE LOVE TAKE A GYPSY FROM THE ROAD


G             N/C          N/C          Am
NOW I USED UP(PAUSE)…………………MY INNOCENCE EARLY
              C                          G
G                                     Am
WELL THEY BENT ME AND ROAD ME……………AND TRIED TO STEAL MY WILL
       C                                       G
LIKE A FAT ROLL STRIPPER TRIES TO TAKE A MAN’S VERY LAST DOLLAR BILL

CHORUS (2X)

AND I SAID MY SWEET ANGEL MUST HAVE DROPPED ME
AND I’M STILL OUT HERE AND I’M STRUGGLIN WITH MY LOAD
BUT THERE’S ONE DAMN THING THIS HIGHWAY’S TAUGHT ME
IT’S ONLY TRUE LOVE TAKE A GYPSY FROM THE ROAD
