[F] [G]
[F] It's a muggy night in [G] Houston
[F] And all the intersections [G] are like
full surf [F] stations
And I'm on [G] my way to
a familiar [Am] place
[G]
[F] [C] It's cold in Kansas [G] City
And [F] you can no more [G] hear me than
I can see [F] your face
And how I wish
it was just you [Am] and me
We
[G] wouldn't have [C] to talk
[Am] above the [C] crowd
We wouldn't have [G] to talk so loud
[C] Cause I [Am] gave you [G] my life
And all [C] I have
is what [G] I've had to [C] give
So [Am] why can't you
[G] get that [C] photograph
of [G] this little boy
[D] Cause I'm nothing to [C] my name
[G] But I can give [F] you that
[G] See [A]
[F] [C] [G]
[C] I don't mess with [G] driving
[C] Seems like forever
And [G] I'm always driving in my [C] mind
And wearing out [G] the road
that gets [Am] me there
[G] And I'm driving till [C] my eyes
just [Am] can't see [C] straight
And I suppose [G] it's getting late
[C] Cause I [Am] gave you [G] my life
And all [C] I have
is what [G] I've had to [C] give
So why [Am] can't you
[G] get that [C] photograph
[F] [G] of this little [D] boy
Cause I'm nothing to [C] my name
[G] And I can [C] give you that
[G] See
[Am] I may never [F] find the sleep
[Am]
I've lost all feeling [F] in my head
See [Am] me top the [C] ground
But my mind's [G] somewhere
North of [C]
[Am] here
[G] [F] Cause [C]
[G] [C] I gave
[Am] you [G] my life
[C] And all [G] I've had to give
So [C] why [Am] can't you
[G] get that [C] photograph
of [G] this little boy
[D] Cause I'm nothing to my name
