Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

x 4

Vs

I said to the river running thru my heart

You got a long way to go until the water part

Come the clouds rollin' in and all the people hide

They say run run baby to the sunnyside

(repeat those chords)

I said to the preacher standing at my door

Why you chasin' a rainbow when you got a star?

He said you're gonna be sorry if you open that lid

I said it's too late daddy I already did

Chrs

Oh Oh don't wait up for me

Oh oh cuz you ain't gonna like what you see

No no no

(the rest of the song is the same thing: for the verse, and the chorus

repeats itself too)

Vs

I looked at the clock and it was quarter to twelve

I started counting the minutes to the freedom bell

I said the midnight hour is gonna take me home

And today's sorry will be here no more

I said

Chrs.

Oh Oh don't wait up for me

Oh on cuz you aint gonna like what you see

No no no
