🎸 Verse 1:
     D MajorD     G+G      A augmentedA
One more night in a transatlantic city
     G+G         D MajorD       A augmentedA
And the clocks all run on someone else's time
A augmentedA     G+G              D MajorD
And the streets run so close to the houses
  G+G           A augmentedA
But none of them run into mine

🎸 Verse 2:
     B minorBm     G+G    D MajorD
And the people are all in a hurry
     B minorBm      G+G      D MajorD
And the whiskey's as cheap as the beer
     G+G              D MajorD     G+G
And that skyline looks just like that postcard I sent you
   E minorEm     G+G         D MajorD
And darling
I wish that you were here


🎸 Verse 3:
FF           C majorC
Some folks travel for pleasure
   FF            C majorC
And other folks just born to roam
FF              C majorC
Some folks can't stand the pressure
  E MajorE            A augmentedA
And some of them never come home


🎸 Verse 4:
D MajorD     G+G      A augmentedA
And I only go where I have to go
    G+G            D MajorD
And I only come home when I'm done
  G+G                  D MajorD      G+G
And if everything's right, then I'll be home Friday night
D MajorD     A augmentedA      D MajorD
Six hours ahead of the sun

🎸 Verse 5:
     D MajorD     G+G       A augmentedA
One more night in a transatlantic city
     D MajorD         G+G      A augmentedA
And you buy one round for everyone in sight
     G+G               D MajorD
And you order up the same old glass of trouble
   G+G         E minorEm        A augmentedA
But trouble just don't taste the same tonight


🎸 Verse 6:
     B minorBm       G+G         D MajorD
And the local bartender tells you all the stories
     B minorBm       G+G         D MajorD
And the local lovelies dance before your eyes
     G+G          D MajorD       G+G
And they call that dance old "Younger's Tartan"
    E minorEm         G+G      A augmentedA
And I can't get all this mud out of my eyes


🎸 Verse 7:
FF               C majorC
Some folks drink when they're happy
FF                C majorC
Other folks drink when they're dry
FF            C majorC
Some folks drink so they won't have to think
   E MajorE               A augmentedA
And some of them drink until they die


🎸 Verse 8:
   D MajorD       G+G     A augmentedA
But drinking just gives me amnesia
    G+G      D MajorD         A augmentedA
But the devil has a list of those who run
   G+G        D MajorD          G+G
Run, win, place, and show, and nowhere to go
   D MajorD     A augmentedA      D MajorD
And six hours ahead of the sun

   G+G        D MajorD          G+G
Run, win, place, and show and nowhere to go
   D MajorD     A augmentedA      FF F C majorC C D MajorD D D MajorD D FF F C majorC C D MajorD D D MajorD D FF F C majorC C D MajorD D D MajorD D
And six hours ahead of the s- u- n-     (six hours)   (six hours)
