[B]
[D]
[G] [F#] [Am] [G]
On a snow covered night up [Am] in eastern Wyoming, [D] another lazy day looking for [G] the sun.
In a drafty old cabin, [Am] off side a whiskey basin, [D] another shining light and a good man [G] on the run.
[Em] There's a lady back in Maringen, [C] a reason no one else can see, [G] for him to spend the winter [D] on his own.
Nothing [G] much to do tomorrow, [Am] just a matter of survival, [D] a friendly fight, and a life chocked full [G] of fun.
Go to sleep,
[Am]
go [D] to sleep, [G] go to [Am] sleep.
[D]
[G]
[Em] It's a special time in medicine,
[C] all that you can do is win, [G] though the taste is sweet you can't [D] refuse.
Put your [G] heart on the table,
[Am] fill your cup with motion, [D] another empty case of the whiskey basin [G] blues.
Go to sleep,
[Am]
[D] go to sleep,
[G]
[Am] go to sleep.
[D]
[G]
