Capo 3
[Intro]
G C G D , G C G D G
[Chorus]
G C
I'm goin' down to the Greyhound Station, gonna buy a ticket to ride
G D
Gonna find that lady with two or three kids and sit down by her side
G C
Ride 'til the sun comes up and down around me 'bout two or three times
G
Smokin' cigarettes in the last seat
D
Sing my song for the people I meet
G
And get along with it all
C
where the people say "y'all"
G
Sing a song with a friend
D
Change the shape that I'm in,
G
And get back in the game,
C G D G
And start playin' again
[Verse]
G C
I'd like to stay but I might have to go to start over again
G D
Might go back down to Texas, might go to somewhere that I've never been
G
And get up in the mornin' and go out at night
C
And I won't have to go home
G
Get used to bein' alone
D
Change the words to this song
G C G D G
Start singin' again
[Instrumental]
G C G D , G C G D G
[Verse]
G C
I'm tired of runnin' round lookin' for answers to questions that I already know
G D
I could build me a castle of memories just to have somewhere to go
G C
Count the days and the nights that it takes to get back in the saddle again
G
Feed the pigeons some clay
D
Turn the night into day
G C G D G
Start talkin' again, when I know what to say
[Instrumental]

I'm goin' down to the Greyhound Station, gonna buy a ticket to ride
