VERSE 1:
EFound (022100@1)myself in a barroom

Doin' things I ought not to
                                    F#mWatching (244222@1)life as it slowly passed me by
AI (x02220@1)was holding on to lovers
                  B7 (x21202@1)          EAnd (022100@1)disregarding others with my lies

Living my whole life like this

I guess is risky business
                                     F#mSome (244222@1)folks say that I won't last too long
       AAnd (x02220@1)I can't say that I blame them

For saying what they're saying
                      B7 (x21202@1)        E'Cause (022100@1)right now I'm just holding on

CHORUS:
A (x02220@1)         B7 (x21202@1)           EI'm (022100@1)just an old dancehall dreamer
A (x02220@1)        B7 (x21202@1)        ELiving (022100@1)my life in the past
A (x02220@1)            B7 (x21202@1)            E (022100@1)         C#mHolding (x13321@4)on to dreams and them slow moving trains
A (x02220@1)                   B7 (x21202@1)       EAnd (022100@1)I don't know how long I can last.

VERSE 2:
ESo (022100@1)I called out to Jesus

Said Lord I really need you
                            F#mYou've (244222@1)go to carry me for a while
           AI've (x02220@1)been running too long

Singing these old tired songs
                   B7 (x21202@1)            EAs (022100@1)the wheels keep pouring out the miles

Like I said I'm just a dreamer

But I've gotta' keep believing
                          F#mSomeday (244222@1)things will go my way
          AI'm (x02220@1)just running from the devil

I've got one foot on the pedal
                        B7 (x21202@1)       EWhile (022100@1)the other is laid up in the grave

A (x02220@1)                   B7 (x21202@1)       EAnd (022100@1)I don't know how long I can last.
