I [Gm] had a job, I [F] had a [Bb] girl, [F] I had something going on in this world.
I got [Gm] laid off at [F] the [Bb] lumberyard, I had a [F] little bed, times got hard.
Now [Eb] I work [F] down at the car wash, where all the liver dust [Gm] rain.
Don't [Eb] you feel [F] like you're a rider, on [Gm] a dime [F] my friend.
She just said, [Gm]
Joe, I [Bb] gotta go, we had [F] one swing, got it anymore.
She packed her [Gm]
bags, left [Bb] me behind, she bought a [F] ticket on the Central Line.
Night as I [Eb]
sleep, I hear that [F] whistle whining, I feel a kiss in the [Gm] misty rain.
[Eb] And I feel like [F] I'm a rider, [Gm] on a dime [F] my friend.

[F] [G] Last night I heard [Bb] your voice, you were crying, [F] crying, you were so alone.
You said your [Gm]
love had never died, [Bb] you were [F]
waiting for me at home.
Put on my [Gm] jacket, I ran through the [Bb] woods, I ran till I [F] thought my chest would explode.
There in [Gm] a clearing, beyond the [Bb] highway, in the [F] moonlight I went and I was shown.
I rushed [Gm] through the yard, I burst through the [Bb] front door, my head pounding [F] hard, up the stairs I climbed.
The [Gm] room was dark, our bed was [Bb] empty, and I heard [F] that long whistle whine.
And I [Eb] dropped to my knees on my head [Bb] and cried.
I [Eb] slid [Gm] down [F] a rail gang, knocking down the road that's working in [Gm] a rain.
And I don't feel like a [F] rider, [Gm] on a [Eb] dime [F] my friend.
