Buddy some Topeka night
G                               Em
When it's just you and the road
Am        C                 G      
Seen no tailights there for miles
               D/F# Am         C                  D/F#
And nothin' much but static on the radio

G                         Em
Wasn't lookin' to the left
G                         Em
Wasn't lookin' to the right
Am        C             G               D/F#
Just kept walking' like Virginia to the surf
Am          C                    D/F#
Towards the far end of the night

G    D/F#
Time hangs like a noose
F  C/E      
Before me
G    D/F#
Time stills to a crawl
F         C/E
Grinds so slowly

G       Em

G                    Em
Heard my own beloved cry
G                         Em
I heard my one beloved moan
Am         C              G                 D/F#
What's the use in all the ache we must endure
Am    C                  D/F#
I had no good reason why


G    D/F#
Time hangs like a noose
F  C/E      
Before me
G    D/F#
Time stills to a crawl
F         C/E
Grinds so slowly

SOLO
G       Em
G       Em

G                        Em
Not a rail to grasp ahold
G                      Em
Nor a savior there beside
Am        C             G               D/F#
Just kept walking' like Virginia to the surf
Am          C                   D/F#
Towards the far end of the night

G    D/F#
Time hangs like a noose
F  C/E      
Before me
G    D/F#
Time stills to a crawl
F         C/E
Grinds so slowly
    G    D/F#
And time hangs like a noose
F   C/E
Around me
