had [G] a job, I had [Bb] a girl, [F] I had something going on that's turning this world.
I got laid [G] off down at the laundry [Bb] yard, [F] I love them bad, times got hard.
[Eb] Now I work [F] down at the car wash, where all the air [G] doesn't rain.
[Eb] Don't feel [G] like [F] you're riding [G] on a car, [F] my friend.
She just [Gm] said, Joe, I gotta [Bb] go.
[F] We had one swing, ain't got it anymore.
[G] She packed her bags, [Bb] left me behind.
She [F] posted it on the Central Line.
Nights as I [Eb] sleep, I hear [F] the crystal wine.
I feel a kiss in the [Gm] ceiling.
[Eb] Don't feel like [F] you're riding [G] on a dime, [F] my friend.

[G] Last night, [Gm] I heard your [Bb] voice.
You were crying, [F] crying.
You were so alone.
[Gm] You said your love had never died.
You were [F] waiting for me at home.
I put on my [Gm] jacket, hurried into [Bb] the woods.
[F] I thought my chest would explode.
There in the [Gm] clear, beyond the [Bb] highway, [F] in the moonlight, I read them how it's [Gm] shown.
I rushed to the yard, I burst through the [Bb] front door, my head pounding [F] hard.
Up the stairs I climbed, clearing the [Gm] dark.
Our bed was [Bb] empty.
Then I [F] heard that prolonged whistle whine, [Eb] and I dropped to my knees, hung my head [Bb] and cried.
I [G] swung a switch and my heart [F] on a roll again.
Knocking down the cross-eyes, working [G] in the rain.
[Eb] Don't feel like [F] you're riding [G] on a dime, I [F] gotta say.
