Capo 3
Intro:
GDCC
3 times
DGCGDG
Evening falls, like the full moon on the highway calls,
CG
me home
DGCGD
and I'm so cold, rubbing fingers through the coffee
GCG
holds, me warm
DGCGDG
Running 5, straight out of Portland like a steeler drives
CG
a stake
DGCGDG
County lines, over and over till the daylight shines,
CG
awake
GDCG
I'm alive at every hour, stoned on every day
DCG
A week without a shower and rolling in the hay
DCGD
I would gladly pay the devil's due, just to get back home to
C
you
Intro
DGCGDG
Cities sleep, another hundred through the valley creeps,
CG
along
DGCGD
and I'm so tired, breaking circuits like the showroom
GCG
wired me wrong
DGCGDG
Four a.m. eyes as red as fire and blood again, I've
CG
found
DGCGD
Shasta's skies, as clear as love shines in my Aimee's
GCG
eyes, abound
DCG
I'm alive at every hour, stoned on every day
DCG
A week without a shower and rolling in the hay
DCGD
I would gladly work a year in June, just to get back home to
C
you
Sing over Intro
EmDCAmG
Another stand is over, another bar, another band
DCAmG
So I've got to love you when I can
DCAmGDC
but, I love to love you when I can-- Hey
DGCGDG
Mornings rise, across my city as the daylight spies, the
CG
bay
DGCGDGC
two days down, another show, another out of town, away
GDGCGDG
That highway 5, Jim and I have traveled far and wide,
CG
alone
DGCGD
but we're so high, the only thing that keeps our hearts
GCG
alive, is hom-
DCG
I'm alive at every hour, stone on every day
DCG
A week without a shower and rolling in the hay
DCGD
I would gladly run around the moon, just to get back home to
C
you...
