Verse 1:
  C            Am        F     G#
I used to be a bona-fide winner
C           Am              F     G#
 The people I had 'round to dinner
Am            C
 We used to laugh so loud
      F              G
'Bout how we weren't just faces in the crowd

 Right place, right time, a phenomena
C                 Am               F    G#
 My face, bright eyes, and I was thinner
Am            C
Every sermon I'd deliver
     F             G
The cat was in the bag
                   C
The bag's in the river

C                  Am
 Stop draggin' my name around
      F                       G
So I went a little crazy and passed out on the floor

The gravy-train don't stop here anymore

    C             Am             F  G#
My mind became a-wandering and weary
   C                    Am            F   G#
My smooth visage all rheumy-eyed and teary
     Am              C
Life used to be all rolling logs
     F                G
Now washed in all the waters
                   C
Chased by all them dogs

Chorus:
C                  Am
 Stop draggin' my name around
      F                       G
So I went a little crazy and passed out on the floor
C                  Am
 Stop draggin' my name around
      F                 G              C
The gravy-train don't stop here anymore
