Train – Following Rita

The final F is more complex than your standard F, but I haven’t quite figured it out yet.
If any of y’all figure it out let me know and I’ll update the tab. Thanks.

Intro:
C   G   Ab
C   G   Ab

Verse 1:
G         Am          F
  Made my exit on the turnpike
            G                  Am                F
  I saw the stateside toll and shuffled for some change
G                   Am              F
  I paid a man that talked as if he knew me
              G                            Am                       F
  And I could see it in his eyes, he could tell that I was running away
