Its my first Tab so please be gentle ;)

This is Johnny Cash's Version of the Country Hit "Out among the Stars", made famous by Waylon Jennings.
It's the Title-Track of the same-named newly found Cash Album.


E                             A
Midnight at a liquor store in Texas
E                                B7
It's closing time another day is done
       E                                  A     F#7
When a boy walks in the door and points a pistol
         E              B7                E
He can't find a job but Lord he's found a gun

                                        A
He pulls it off with no trace of confrontation
        E                               B7
That he lets the old man run out in the street
     E                                        A      F#7
Even though he knows they'll come with guns a blazing
      E            B7              E
And already he can feel that great relief

                          D    A
Oh how many travelers get wear-y
E                                    B7
Bearing both their burdens and their scars
E                                      A
Don't you think they'd love to stop complaining
    E               B7            E
And fly like eagles out among the stars

                               A
He pictures the arrival of the cruisers
          E                           B7
Sees that old familiar anger in their eyes
   E                                        A    F#7
He knows that when they're shooting at this loser
           E             B7              E
They'll be aiming at the demons in their lives

Repeat #3

                                A
Evening news it carries all the details
   E                            B7
He dies in every living room in town
   E                            A    F#7
In his own a bottle's thrown in anger
        E                  B7              E
And his father cries we'll never live this down

                          D    A
Oh how many travelers get wear-y
E                                    B7
Bearing both their burdens and their scars
E                                    A
Don't you think they'd love to start all over
    E               B7            E
And fly like eagles out among the stars


                    B7            E
And fly like eagles out among the stars
