          C                                     F
I'm goin' down to the Greyhound Station, gonna buy a ticket to ride
       C                                            G
Gonna find that lady with two or three kids and sit down by her side
 C                                                F
Ride 'til the sun comes up and down around me 'bout two or three times
        C
Smokin' cigarettes in the last seat
         G
try and hide my sorrow from the people I meet
        C
And get along with it all

   F
Go down where the people say "y'all"..
       C
Sing a song with a friend
           G
Change the shape that I'm in,
        C              
And get back in the game,
          F              C   G  C
And start playin' again


C                                                F
I'd like to stay but I might have to go to start over again
         C                                              G
Might go back down to Texas, might go to somewhere that Ive never been
    C
And get up in the mornin' and go out at night
            F
And I won't have to go home
            C
Get used to bein' alone
           G
Change the words to this song
      C           F   C    G C
Start singin' again


(Repeat Intro)

            C                                                  F
Im tired of runnin round lookin for answers to questions that I already know
        C                                         G
I could build me a castle of memories just to have somewhere to go
          C                                                    F
Count the days and the nights that it takes to get back in the saddle again

         C
Feed the pigeons some clay
         G
Turn the night into day
      C                    F                C  G  C
Start talkin' again, when I know what to say
