    Passing Through

Capo on 4th fret 
 
C5 
The red sun?s going down, I?ll be waiting up again 
F5 
Wondering where you are tonight 
                  C5 
Out with all your friends 
C5 
And I guess that you don?t think about  
 
The home you left behind 
F5                           G5               C5 
But I?d give everything to get you out of my mind 
 
 
C5 
You thought a quiet ranch road 
 
Was good enough back then 
   F5                                                   C5 
But now you need those city lights and bars to go sit in 
C5 
And I wonder where the old you goes 
 
When all the bars close down 
F5 
?Cause I can just listen to the crickets sing 
   G5                      C5 
but you need the lights of town 
 
 
F5 
the lights of town are blinding you now 
C5 
you can?t even see 
G5 
that part of you you left behind 
C5 
when you walked out on me 
F5 
but when those city lights go dim 
C5 
and you?re left all alone 
C5                       G5                 C5 
I wonder if you could find your way back home 
 
You forget about the moon in a bar full of neon lights 
You can?t remember holding hands 
On chilly autumn nights 
And though it seems to you 
That the starts have lost their shine 
They?re glowing bright as ever darling 
Past the city limits sign 
 
Chorus 
 
In the middle of the night I sometimes watch the road 
I see the headlights move on past 
And I shiver from the cold 
By now the doors are locked downtown 
And still no sign of you 
The lights of town have broke the heart 
That loved you once so true 
 
Chorus
