Capo 1st Fret

Ocean of stars, why’ve i gone so far?
I miss my home
I hear those engines drone
The runway is set
Let's move this fking jet, i have to go
Despite all the sleet and snow

Just a late night host leaving Dallas
With a portrait done in velvet
Just a three night run at the palace
And I never in my life felt so alone

I worked for the show
Stars would come and go
I worked the lights,
I even swept some nights
but now i’m the host that’s worthy of a toast
Don’t you agree, my little honeybee?

Just a late night king leaving Dallas
With a portrait done in velvet
Just a three night run at The Palace
I’ll be at 17th and Broadway by tonight

So far away from all these wonders
Even as the roulette spins
I was escorted seventeen miles
Came upon all winds bend
Even in dreams of light
I can still hear her call through the tall grass and weeds
I know that I’ll never be the same on this road to calvary

Just a late night host leaving Dallas
With a portrait done in velvet
Just a three night run at The Palace
and I never in my life felt so alone
and I never in my life felt so alone
