I went down to Houston

And I stopped at San Antone

And I passed up the station for the bus
G+G D MajorD
And I was tryin to find me somethin
B minorBm A augmentedA G+G
But I wasnt sure just what
D MajorD A augmentedA D MajorD
And I ended up with pockets full of dust
D MajorD
And I went down to Cleveland
G+G D MajorD
Thats where I went insane
A augmentedA AsusAsus A augmentedA
I bought a borrowed suite and learned to dance

And I was spendin money

Like the way it likes to rain

Man I ended up with pockets full of cane

Though the newsprint boats are raced in sewer mains
