D MajorD C majorC
There's a warm wind a-blowin'
G+G D MajorD
And a burnin' sun droppin' down
D MajorD C majorC
At the end of time I'll be rockin'
G+G D MajorD
In a wooden chair like I'm still starin' at a crowd

'Cause this road I've traveled has been long and full of heartache

When them Hollywood lights all go dim and California looks like a dead town

You know where I'll be found

Yeah
I'll be the ghost on a hilltop overlookin' plains

With the coal smoke steady rollin' off of that train

And my songs will always live down in the country (Country)

Where that young boy livin' for a Friday night

Plays an old lost song through the radio dial

And the time ain't fadin' not none of my fuckin' vocals
