Lay My Head On the Rail - Ryan Bingham and the Dead Horses
Album: Junky Star
DGDGAd Tuning (You can also play in DADGAD but it makes Riff b harder to play 
because you have to use the 5th fret of the low D string then)

Not an overly complicated song. I simplified some of the finger picking and in the 
bass he just keeps a nice solid straight 4 rhythm. Just listen to the songs for 
the changes and this tab will work perfectly for ya. Enjoy! and Please Rate...

Well I?m back on that road again
Nothin slows me down
I ain?t seen a single smile since I left your town
All these people just keep lookin? round
Can?t look you in the eye
L.A is like the movies
And I?m still wondering why
I?m holdin? on
Lay my head down on the rail
Sing my way back home

The road signs are hazy and the miles start to unwind
But I ain?t ever lookin back cause there?s nothin? left behind
My fingertips are bleedin, there right down to the bone
Can?t believe i?m out again on the high lonesome road
I?m holdin? on
Lay my head down on the rail
Sing my way back home

The head lights are blinding and the diesels are on fire
Haulin? ass down a mountain pass
To the California state line
If you could see my bleeding feet
You might hang your head and cry
But don?t you shed a tear my dear
For I?m comin home tonight
I?m holdin? on
Lay my head down on the rail
Sing my way back home
Lay my head down on the rail
Sing my way back home
