That Song About The Midway Chords by Bonnie Raitt

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