BUSLOAD OF HOPE

F* - 133200

Am7 /E /G
Sinners and prayers on a jitney
Gamblers try to smooth their raw deal
                                        F*
Kissed their kids for the weekend
        E
And here they come to spin the wheel

Moustache-d, lipstick-ed Frannie
She'll be sucking up the free drinks at Trump
Going through twenties like water
But she don't feel a thing when she's drunk

[Theу're on a]
F*              Am7
Busload Of Hope
E                                       Am7
Swinging on a star from the hangman's rope
F*              Am7
Busload Of Hope
F*                      E
Gimme the luck, gimme the dope, yeah-

Shaking hands with one arm bandits
Winking back at one eyed jacks
Suicide kings got a reason
Oh baby, just stay in the black

Hit me!
It's a
Busload of Hope
Swing on a star from the hangman's rope
Busload of Hope
Gimme the luck, gimme the dope, yeah-

Shattered that American daydream
Afternoon moanin' in bed
Swallowed the hook, line and sinker
Working man needs the bread

Slipping on that second mortgage
Livin' on credit and debt
Oh thank heaven - for chapter eleven
Or should ya make just one more bet?

Get on the Busload Of Hope
Sure, you're gonna clean up, in hot water and soap
Busload Of Hope - you got the dream and just enough rope yeah!
