[N]
[A]
[D] [E]
Well, I [B] met you on a [C#m] midway [A] at a fair last [E] year
And you [B] stood out like a [C#m] ruby [A] in a black man's [E] ear
You were playing on [C#m] the horses,
[E] playing on the guitar [D]
strings
[F#m] You were [C#m] playing like a devil, [A]
wearing [E] wings
Wearing wings, you looked so grand, wearing [C#m]
[A] [E] wings
Do you tie them to your [C#m] shoulder just [E] to sing?
Can you fly?
I heard you [F#m] can
Can you [C#m] [A] fly?
[E]
Just like an [D] eagle [A] doing [C#m] his hunting [A] from the [E] sky
I [C#m]
[D] [E]
[B] followed through a [C#m]
sideshow to another [E]
town
And I [B] found you in a [C#m]
trailer on the [F#m] camping
[E] ground
You were [D] betting [E] on [C#m] some lover, [E] shooting up [D] the [F#] dice
And [C#m] I thought I [A] saw you cheating once or [E] twice
Once or [D] twice, I heard [F#m] you did
Once or [E] twice, were [D] you wondering was the [C#m] gamble [E] worth the price?
[F#m] [E] Now you've [D] backed it in, [E] I heard you [F#m] did
Backed [C#m] it [A] in
[E] Was it so [D] hard to fold a [C#m]
hand you knew [E] could win?
[C#m]
[D] [E]
[B] Lately you've been [C#m] hiding, it was [A] somewhere in the [E]
news
[B] Well I'm still at [C#m] these races with my ticket [A] stubs and [E] my blues
[A] [E]
The [D] man [A] calls out the [C#m]
numbers, he [E] sometimes
[D] mentions mine
[F#m]
But I feel [C#m] like I've been working overtime
[E]
[D] Overtime, I've lost my fire, [F#m] [C#m] overtime
[E]
I'm [D] always playing one [A] more hand for one [E] more dime
While I'm slowing down, [F#] I'm getting tired,
[F#m] slowing [E] down
[D] And I [E] envy you the [C#m] valleys [A] that [E] you've found
Cause [D] I'm midway, [F#m]
down [C#m] the middle [E] way
[A]
Slowing [E] down,
[D] down
[A] [E] [F#m]
[E] [C#m]
