[Verse 1]
F C A# Dm D
where will you go when this day is over
Gm C F C C7
a gambler's purse lays on the road
Dm
straight to your door
G C
snakes have gone crazy tonight
Cm Gm C C7
winding their way out of sight
[Verse 2]
F C A# Dm D
a laugh, a joke a sentiment wasted
Gm C F C C7
seasons of strangers they've come and gone
Dm
doldrums are pounding,
G C
cheapskates are clowning this town
Cm Gm C C7
who could disown themselves now
[Verse 3]
F C A# Dm D
engineer, slow down this old train
Gm C F C C7
cinders and chaff laugh at the moon
Dm
night birds will cackle
G C
rotting like apples on trees
Cm Gm C G7
sending their dead melodies...to me
