A5                      G5 
I got a sister out in Charlotte 
A5                                    G5 
I love her cause she's crazy in her head 
A5                      G5      
I got a brother he's a pilot 
A5           G5      D5   
Sometimes I pray I'll just see him again 
A5                         G5                                    
My father told me once he said son 
A5                         G5 
Only a fool stays out at night 
A5                        G5 
Well it's 4 a.m. and I'm out here on the boulevard 
A5         G5             D5  
I got no money but you know I'm doin' alright 
 
Chorus 
                  G5 
Yeah, you gotta know 
              C5  
There ain't nothin' bout money 
        G5                     C5  
That's ever gonna save your soul. 
           G5 
And the dreams of the young 
       C5 
Have never been nothing 
         G5                   C5 
But the last request of the old. 
A5                       D5 
Heaven is a fiddle on a late night radio. 
A5 
You can't find redemption, 
D5 
Brother if ya got no soul. 
           G5      C5     G5     C5                  
You Gotta Know. 
 
Her name was Amy, she was a friend of mine 
Wanted to be a rich man's wife 
She fell in love with cars and expensive wine 
She must have forgot what it means to live her life 
 
Chorus 
 
Weathered hands on a steel guitar 
He plays every evening till they turn them bar lights down 
You know he's tired of them dammed old cigarettes 
Now he's saving up his money so he can move on out of town 
 
 
Chorus Twice
