[Bb]
[Eb] [Bb]
Well, sittin' in the depot, allow me for the break of day
[Eb] I just bought my ticket, [Bb] lollipop, a bus ain't late
I'll [F]
have a cup of coffee and a sandwich from the [Bb] microwave
Now, I [C] wanna see my baby, that's the last [Bb] thing I ever do
[F] Got to sittin' in the station, sick and tired of waiting
Comin' in the [Bb] trailway
Well, rollin' out to [Eb] Houston, man, we're finally [Bb] rollin' now
[Eb]
Try to get some sleep and listen to [Bb] that highway sound
[F] I guess we must have stopped in every single [Bb] little town
[Eb] Now, I bought [C] my pill for coffee, hoping [Bb] that's just Mississippi news
[Bbm] Well, the just pulled out an electric [F] child
Rollin' in the soul of a Continental [Bb] Trailway blitz
[F] [Bb] Now, we're rollin' [Eb] into Houston, don't them city [Bb] lights look fine
[Eb] Headed for the payphone, [Bb] hangin' on to my last dime
[F] Well, she said she got a new man, son, it's been [Bb] a long, long time
Now, I'm standin' by the highway with the rain runnin' through my shoes
Well, I'm sittin' by the roadside, wishin' [F] I was in town
Comin' [Bb] in the trailway
I got to wishin' I was downtown
Waitin' on the [Am] Greyhound, comin' in the trailway blitz
[Bb]
