[C]
[Am]
[F] [C]
[F]
[G]
[C] Busy a man [Am] in the corner, [F] playing crazy on [C] my loved [F]
[C] quarters
[F] I'll hide up [G] on the table, and he [C] orders a [Am] wild turkey
And [F] with a quick wit and [C] a smile, he says, my darling, [Am] you're the one I'll [G] drink and savour
But [C] his baseball cap [Am] and his bottom wrap tell [F] me a [C] different story
That this is not [F] my prince to grant [G] all my wishes
Just
[C] another [Am] lonely country boy, [F] grown weary [C] of the night
Just another boy [Am] with a sink full [G] of dirty dishes
And
[Em] were you [Am] tonight when [E] I left you [Am] in my dreams last night
[C] And promised me [E] that we would be [F] breaking free
[Am] But were [Em]
you [Am] tonight, he [C] tells me [Am] of the back roads
[F] And I will ride [C] them all night long
And the days will fade [F] and the moon will [G] hang forever
[C] Then the cloud of dust [Am] will kick up, [F] will linger like [C] a song
And the myth will grow [Am] about the two who refused [G] to surrender
But [C] as I catch us [Am] in the barroom, he [F] with his arm around [C] my shoulder
This girl I see [F] has grown so [G] unfamiliar
And [C] as she stands [Am] to leave [Em] with [F] a stranger by her [C] side
She can't help but [Am] laugh at a life turned [G] so peculiar
And [Em] were you [Am] tonight, [E] I don't think I [Am] can face [C] tomorrow's light
Not knowing [Em] if [E] you'll be there [F] to guide me
[Am] Where [Em] are you [Am] tonight, [Dm]
who are [G] you tonight
I [C]
think I can make [Am] it through alright
[C] But I'd love to have [E] you just one more time [Am]
beside me
