[F] _ _ _ _ _ _ I had [Gm] a job, _ I had [Bb] a girl, I had something [F] going on disturbing this world.
I got laid [Gm] off down at the [Bb] laundry yard, I had a [F] little bed, time got hard.
[Eb] Now I work, now I have [F] to call a watch, wear a wig.
Does [Gm] it rain?
Don't [Eb] it feel like [F] you're a rider on [G] a [F] dime?
I'm praying, she just [G] said, yo, _ I gotta [Bb] go.
We had [F] one swing, got her hair in a mosh, she packed [G] her bags, left me [Bb] behind.
She [F] bought a ticket on the Central Line, not since [Eb] I sleep, I hear the [F] whistle whine.
I feel a kiss in the [Gm] stinging rain, _ [Eb] don't it feel like [F] you're a rider [Gm] on a [Eb] dime?

[G] Last night, I heard [Bb] your voice, you were crying, [Dm] crying, you were so [F] alone.
You said your [G] love had [Dm] never died, [F] you were waiting for me at home.
I put on [G] my jacket, I ran to [Bb] the woods, I ran till I [F] thought my [Bb] chest would [F] explode.
There [Gm] in the clear, _ beyond the [Bb] highway, in the [F] moonlight, I read [Bbm] and how [F] strong.
I rushed to the [G] yard, I burst [Bb] through the front door, my head pounded [F] hard.
Up the stairs I climbed, there [G] on this dog, [Gm] our [Bb] bed was empty.
Then I [F] heard that prolonged whistle whine, _ [Eb] and I dropped,
_ I fell to my knees, hung my [Bb] head and _ cried.
_ I [Eb] swung a sledgehammer on [F] a road gang, knocking down the [Dm] crossroads and [Gm] taking the reins.
[Eb] Don't it feel like [F] you're a rider [Gm] on a dime?
I had a [F] bad swing. _ _
