Capo 4


Am
Striking like a fod on the Cumberland River
         C                   G
I was leaving on her Delta Queen
       F       C       G
And I wasn't ready to go
F           C        G
I'm never ready to go


Am
27 Years of nothing but failures
       C                        G
and promises I couldn't keep, Lord
      F       C       G
And I wasn't ready to go
F           C        G
I'm never ready to go

        Am
Let it Ride
             F     C        G
Let it Ride, easy down the road
        Am
Let it Ride
             F     C        G
Let it Ride, take away this darkness
        Am
Let it Ride
               F       C              G
Let it rock me in the arms of this strangers angel
  F
Until it brings me home
  F                              Am     C  G  X2
Let it Ride, Let it roll, Let it Go

Am
Loaded like a sailor tumbling off a ferry boat
          C             G
I was at the bar 'til three, Oh Lord
       F       C       G
And I wasn't ready to go
F           C        G
I'm never ready to go

Am
Tennessee's a brother to my sister Carolina
         C                 G
Where are they gonna bury me
       F       C       G
And I wasn't ready to go
F           C        G
I'm never ready to go

Chorus

F
I wanna see you tonight
F
Dancing in the endless moonlight
C                  G
In a parking lot, in the headlights of cars
F
Some place on the moon
F
Where they moved the drive-in theatres
   C
But I still got the keys to...

Chorus

Am    C   G X2
