Intro 1
(G major) (C/G) (G major) (D7)
(G major) (C/G) (G major) (D7) (G major)
Verse 1
I'm goin' down (G major) to the Greyhound Station
Gonna buy a (C/G) ticket to ride
I'm gonna (G major) find that lady with two or three kids
And sit down (D7) by her side
(G major) Ride 'til the sun comes up
and down around me
'Bout (C/G) two or three times
Smokin' (G major) cigarettes in the last seat
Sing this (D7) song for the people I meet
And get a (G major) long with it all
Where the (C major) people say "y'all"
Sing a (G major) song with a friend
Change the (D7) shape that I'm in
And get (G major) back in the game
And start (C major) playin' again (G major) (D7)

Verse 2
(G major) I'd like to stay
But I might have to go to start (C major) over again
I might go (G major) back down to Texas
Might go to somewhere that I've (D7) never been
And get (G major) up in the mornin'
and go out at night
And I won't (C major) have to go home
Get used to (G major) bein' alone
Change the (D7) words to this song
And start (G major) singin' again (C major) (G major) (D7)
Interlude 1
(G major) (C major) (G major) (D7)
(G major) (C major) (G major) (D7) (G major)
Verse 3
I'm tired of (G major) runnin' 'round
Lookin' for answers
to questions that I (C major) already know
I could (G major) build me a castle with memories
Just to have (D7) somewhere to go
Count the (G major) days and the nights
That it takes to get back
in the (C major) saddle again
Feed the (G major) pigeons some clay
Turn the (D7) night into day
And start (G major) talkin' again,
when I (C major) know what to say (G major) (D7)

I'm goin' down (G major) to the Greyhound Station

I'm gonna (G major) find that lady with two or three kids
And sit down (D7) by her side
(G major) Ride 'til the sun comes up
and down around
'Bout (C major) two or three times
Smokin' (G major) cigarettes in the last seat
Sing my (D7) song for the people I meet
And get a (G major) long with it all
Where the (C major) people say "y'all"
Feed the (G major) pigeons some clay
Turn the (D7) night into day
And start (G major) talkin' again
When I (C major) know what to say (G major) (D7)
