D                         Em 
This old guitar's playin' harder 
G                              D 
And I'm still rollin' with the thunder 
Em              G                        A      A9  A 
I've learned to dance with the lightning bolts 
        A9                  Em                                                            
But the dreams so clear in the morning lights 
G                D 
Can blind you at midnight  
    Em          Em/F#           G  
'Til angels and devils look the same 
G               A               D 
Leaves you with nothing but the rain 
 

D                   G 
But if I had Hank's angel 
                           D 
With them lips of sweet morphine 
                             Em 
Get me stoned down in Hank's Cadillac 
G                                D 
Drive us both down to New Year's Eve 
                        G 
But I'm wasted on these city streets 
                       D 
Rank strangers stand unkind 
                         C 
The only place I find an angel 
G                D 
Is a bottle at a time  
 
 
I've got the moon still here to guide me 
Finds me like my ex-best friend 
Shines a thin pale light beside me 
Down on regret, what might have been 
But he won't send me no more angels 
Man I wasted all of mine 
I left them walking down that lost highway 
In The miles I left behind
