- Guitar 1 (Acoustic) : 

Dm                                                   
Moving like the fog on the Cumberland River
         C                 F			
I was leaving on the Delta Queen
       A#    F        C
And I wasn't ready to go
A#        F        C
I'm never ready to go

Dm
27 years of nothing but failures
       C                     F
and promises that I couldn't keep, Oh Lord
      A#     F        C
and I wasn't ready to go
A#        F        C
I'm never ready to go

A#
I wanna see you tonight
A#
Dancing in the endless moonlight
F                      C
In a parking lot in the headlights of cars
A#
Some place on the moon
A#
Where they moved the drive-in theatre
F                                             
Where I left the car that I can't find
    C(*)
but I still got the keys to

(*) Play once
