Old friend, it's been a while,

Is it the goodbyes that haunt you,

fear of new hellos?

'cause you won't stop your running

Wait for tomorrow 'til tomorrow's not coming

Heard you landed in Tulsa

the fields we hauled hay?

C C 
 
Heat this July or the dark last December

Am Am 
 
Look in my eyes and you might remember

Weed out in Norman, the Stillwater strip
G G 
 
Run far enough boy
Am Am 
 
and you're bound to trip
