A5                     E5  
Roll bus roll, take me off.
                                     G5   
A rolled sweatshirt makes the window soft.
                                D5 
If I fall asleep, don't wake me up.
                       A5
Roll bus roll, take me up.

 A5                          E5  
Midnight coming on a Monday night.
                                         G5   
I'm gonna go again, because I don't feel right.
                                      D5 
Quickpack, knapsack, quicksnack, quicktrain.
                       A5
42nd street, Greyhound again.

                                D5

                       A5
Roll bus roll, take me up.

 A5                        E5  
Old bodegas and old streetlights.
                       G5   
Harlem looks so warm tonight.
                                               D5 
All those cheap desserts memory hurts, I could die,
                                        A5
I gotta to take 2 Tylenols and close my eyes.

 A5                     E5

Roll bus roll, take me up.

 A5                            E5  
I wasn't designed to move so fast.
                                     G5   
I wasn't designed to have so much past.
                                          D5 
And in my minds eye they all have so much fun,
                                A5 
nowhere to hide, and nowhere to run

 A5                                              E5  
And then the sun setting on my youth makes that old shadow get taller,
               G5  
oh but its all fine 
                                            D5 
as long as the bus makes the city behind me get 
                       A5 
smaller and smaller.

 A5                     E5  
Roll bus roll, take me off.
                                     G5

                                D5

Roll bus roll, take me up.

 A5                                 E5  
Two weeks in England, two weeks in town.
                                     G5   
Another hundred bucks of medication down.
                                     D5 
Another sorry message that I need to send,
                                     A5 
and another situation that I have to end.

 A5                            E5  
A midnight coming on a Monday night.
                                     G5   
I'm gonna go again I might not be alright.
                                      D5 
Its a bitter pill, and it's still the same:
                       A5 
42nd Street, Greyhound again.

 A5                                   E5  
If I get one seat, I hope it's the window.
                                     G5   
And if I get two seats I'll just lie down.
                                        D5 
but if I get one seat and it's just the aisle,
                                         A5 
I'll still be asleep before the hundreth mile.

 A5                         E5  
And then inside some tiny dream
                            G5   
and inside that somekind of me
                                     D5 
and outside us rolls the bus and the time 
                                 A5
will go by till inside me I am asleep.

 A5                     E5  
Roll bus roll, take me off.
                                     G5   
A rolled sweatshirt makes the window soft.
                                D5 
If I fall asleep, don't wake me up.
                       A5 
Roll bus roll, take me up.
