Tuning: Standard

Intro: C F 3x
G                            F
The beer was talking and it seemed a little bored
G                     F
Suggested walking for awhile
G                        Am             C
Thought it'd be dramatic if we walked all night
          Am  G     F
But I got tired, so I came home
                               C
Lay back on the couch to watch TV

F C F

    G                           F
The drunks were talking, wasn't long before I grew bored,
G                      F
Lewis didn't feel the same
G                                  C
I guess they spoke in tongues that wrapped around his brain,
          Am G                 F
He didn't mind the feeling at all
G                         F
Remember me sometime when I am far away
G                          F
and I will try and do the same
G                         Am         C
Maybe just like you some day I will forget
               G
Every hit song America ever had
F                                    C
Like this is for all the Lonely People,
F                                 C
and Oz never gave nothing to the Tin Man,
F
and I've been to a desert on a horse without a name

Solo (Try the C or Am pentatonic scale)
