G D C Em E Am D G D D7
[Verse 1]
G D C Em E
where will you go when this day is over
Am D G D D7
a gambler's purse lays on the road
Em
straight to your door
A D
snakes have gone crazy tonight
Dm Am D D7
winding their way out of sight
[Verse 2]
G D C Em E
a laugh, a joke a sentiment wasted
Am D G D D7
seasons of strangers they've come and gone
Em
doldrums are pounding,
A D
cheapskates are clowning this town
Dm Am D D7
who could disown themselves now
[Verse 3]
G D C Em E
engineer, slow down this old train
Am D G D D7
cinders and chaff laugh at the moon
Em
night birds will cackle
A D
rotting like apples on trees
Dm Am D A7
sending their dead melodies...to me
