[Verse 1]
G Gaug G Gaug
Highways and dance halls A good song takes you farâ?¨
You writ[G/F#]e about the moon And you dream a[C/B]bout the stars
G Gaug G Gaug
Blues in old motel rooms Girls in daddy’s car
You sing[G/F#] about the nights And you laugh [C/B]about the scars
G Gaug G Gaug
Coffee in the morning cocaine afternoons
You talk[G/F#] about the weather And you grin [C/B]about the rooms
G Gaug G Gaug
Phone calls long distance To tell how you’ve been
Forget a[G/F#]bout the losses, you exaggerate [C/B]the wins

And when you stop to let ‘em know You’ve got it down
N.C C C/B A7 D7 G
it’s just another town along the road

[Instrumental]

[Verse 2]
G Gaug G Gaug
The ladies come to see you If your name still rings a bell
They give you [G/F#]damn near nothin’ And they’ll s[C/B]ay they knew you well
G Gaug G Gaug
So you tell ‘em you remember But they know it’s just a game
And along the [G/F#]way their faces All begin to [C/B]look the same

And when you stop to let ‘em know You’ve got it down
N.C. C C/B A7 D7 G
it’s just another town along the road

[Verse 3]
G Gaug G Gaug
Well it isn’t for the money And it’s only for a while
You stalk a[G/F#]bout the rooms And you roll a[C/B]way the miles
G Gaug G Gaug
Gamblers in the neon, clinging to guitars
You’re right a[G/F#]bout the moon But you’re wrong [C/B]about the stars

And when you stop to let ‘em know You’ve got it down
N.C. C C/B A7 D7 G
it’s just another town along the road
