[Cm]
[Ab] [Eb]
There's a place [Cm] on a blank stretch of road [Ab] where nobody travels, nobody [Bb] goes
[Eb] And a desk man says [Cm] these days round here, [Ab] well two young folks could [Eb] probably up and disappear
[Ab] And a rustling sheet's a sleepy [Eb]
corner room [Cm] and to the [Ab] musty smell
[F] Of [Eb] wilted flowers in [Cm] lazy afternoon hours [Eb] at the moonlight motel
And [Cm]
[Ab]
[Eb] the pool's filled with empty [Cm] eight foot deep, [Ab]
dandelions grown up through [Bb] cracks in [Eb] concrete
Chain link fence [Cm] half rusted away, God's [Ab] son says children be careful [Bb] how you [Ab] play
Lipstick taste [Eb] in your whispered secret [Cm] I [Bb] promised I'd never [Ab] tell
I [Eb] have drunk the beer and [Cm] your breath in my ear at [Ab] the [Bb] moonlight [Eb] motel
[Cm] [Ab]
[Eb]
[Ab] And it's bills and kids [Eb] and kids and bills [Cm] and the ringing of [Ab] the bell
[Eb] Across the valley floor [Cm] through the dusty screen [Ab] doors of the [Bb] moonlight [Eb] motel
[Cm] [C]
[Eb]
[Bb] [Eb] Last night I dreamed [Cm] of you my love, [Ab] the wind blew through the window and blew
[Bb] Off the covers [Eb] of my lonely bed I [C] awoke to something [Cm] you said
[Ab] It's better to have loved as, better to have loved as
I drove there [Eb] was a chillin' breeze and the [Cm] leaves tumbled [Eb] from the sky and fell
On the road so blank [Cm] as I backtracked [Bb] to the moonlight [Eb] motel
She [Cm] [Ab] was boarded up and gone [Eb] like an old summer song, [Cm] nothing [Eb] but an empty [Ab] shell
[Eb] Pulled in stock [Cm] into my old spot, [Ab]
[F] [Cm]
[Eb] [Ab] pulled a bottle of Jack out [Eb] of the paper bag
Poured [Cm] one for me and [Gm] one for you [Ab] as well
Then it was [Eb] one more shot poured out [Cm] the parking [Cm] lot to [Ab] the moonlight [Eb] motel
[Cm] [Ab]
[Bb] [F] [Eb]
