Look at him.
[Bb] [F] The arms sign are flashing, [Fm] taxi cabs and buses passing [F] through the night.
[Fm] Oh, Lord.

And [Bb] no matter how [F] you look at [Fm] it, or think of it, [G]
oh, [Bb] [Ab] you just got to do your own [Gm] thing.
Oh, [Fm] yeah.
[F] Find me a place in a boxcar, [Bb] and then I'm gonna take out my guitar, just to [F] pass some time.
[Cm] Are you with [Gm] that, mama?
[Fm] Then [Fm] listen to this.
When it [F] gets late at night and it's hard to rest, [Fm] [Bb] I'll hold your picture to my [F] chest, and I'm gonna feel fine.

Because, you know, I can just get my [Fm] hands on [Eb] some sternum, you know, and everything will be all [F] right.
I'm [Ab] almost gone.
