G Em C D x 4

G               Em       C              D
it's hot in the cab, the temperature is rising
G         Em                  C            D
the sun's beating down on the hood and the dash inside.
G            Em       C                D
these summer days are starting to mock me,
G       Em      C         D
I can't get you off of my mind
G               Em              C            D
eyes blurry the day seems to be coming to an end now,
G           Em        C         D
as the moon rises the sun slips into hiding

as the sun sets it paints this evening sky red
I sit watching and thinking as I drain this bottle dead
and the nights are blacker then my heart has become
early mornings keep me strong from the 
memorys that your gone x2

G Bm Em C
G Bm Em C

G                 Bm 
I'm down trodden, yeah I'm different,
Em           C
I stand out, I can't fix it
G                   Bm              Em         C
and I'm happy sorta happy sometimes I hear the clock droning on
G             Bm              Em               C
times passing people laughing content with how there life's dragging
G              Bm               Em               C
a man watches, always watching, tears fall for a hope lost.

flares glaring, hells churning, can't you feel your blood burning?
take another sip snarl grimace flip your lip, but please get a grip
my life's no where heading somewhere to a place away from here
these people just got to lose all this fear.

I looked and I talked, I stopped and I thought, these people around me don't know 
what they want x3

G Em C x3 ::Fast strumming on the last C chord::
