INTRO: The intro riff...this is as close as I can it.
C5 F5 G5 F5 G5 C5 F5 C5
Strum each chord once, sliding the F5 chord up two frets to the make G5 , then
play an open G5 chord at the end, then repeat again. I think McClure throws in a
C9 somehow, but I can't get it.
Intro Riff X 4, and the riff is played at end of each of the verses, and at the end of the chorus.
C5
Hey it's good to see you baby how long has it been
C5
It always feels like yesterday when I come walking in
F5
But there you are, behind the bar serving drinks
C5
And smiling with your eyes
G5
But when you notice me
F5 C5
I feel that old familiar fire burning way down inside down inside
Last night I heard the roadhouse blues on my radio
Thought about that night at my place under candle glow
A bottle of wine lost track of time somehow we both wound up on the floor
And I was into wine and passion then, but you were into finding something
more
F5 C5
You were always searching for the man I'm never gonna be
F5 C5
And I was always chasing down the highway that led in front of me
G5 F5
Well I hear you got a new man now, I hope he treats you good
G5 F5 C5
I hope he's doing all them little things, that I never could
Sometimes reality don't live up to up to my dreams
This gypsy life with open roads ain't easy as it seems
So now and then, your back again, wondering if I ever should have gone
But the choices that we make in life we gotta live with, whether they're
right or wrong
CHORUS
BRIDGE:
D5 G5
No matter how hard I try
F5 G5 C5
It won't be long before I'm saying goodbye
(start the intro riff again)
