          C
I’m going down to the greyhound station
           F
Gonna get a ticket to ride
     C
Gonna find that lady with 2 or 3 kids
       G
And sit down by her side
   C                                                   
And ride until the sun comes up and  
                    F
Down around me about 2 or 3 times
       C
Smoking cigarettes in the last seat
G
Trying to hide my sorrow from the people I meet
       C
And get along with it all
        F
Whenever people say Y’all
      C
Sing a song with a friend
          G
Change the shape that I’m in
       C
And get back in the game
         F            C
And start playing again 

C
I’d like to stay but I might have to go to 
     F
Start over again
          C
I might go back down to Texas I might go 
             G
Somewhere that I’ve never been
       C
And get up in the morning and go out at night
          F
And I won’t have to go home
          C
Get used to being alone
         G
Change the words to this song
        C             F  C
And start singing again 

            C
I’m tired of running round looking for answers 
                   F
To questions that I already know
       C
I could build me a castle of memories 
            G
Just to have somewhere to go
         C
Count the days and the nights that it 
                        F
takes to get back in the saddle again
        C
Feed the pigeons some clay
        G
Turn the night into day
     C                  F                C
Start talking again if I know what to say 

          C

                F
Going down where people say Y'all
        C
Feed the pigeons some clay
        G
Turn the night into day
     C                  F                C
