[Em]
[E] Burnside he stood at the curb by the gate Bag and his coat by his side
And he thought to himself, useless brother be late
scanned the dawn horizon [A] for a light As he [E] scanned the dawn for a light
Burnside he walked over to the driver's door And embraced his brother dear
Where to, where to?
Put your foot to the floor
Anywhere that is [A] warm and far from here [E]
[E] Burnside he stood at the curb by the gate Bag and his coat by his side
And he thought to himself, useless brother be late
scanned the dawn horizon [A] for a light As he [E] scanned the dawn for a light
Burnside he walked over to the driver's door And embraced his brother dear
Where to, where to?
Put your foot to the floor
Anywhere that is [A] warm and far from here [E]
