Cowboy Junkies - Where are you tonight ? guitar tab

C Am F C

There's a young man in the corner, playing crazy all night long.

C F G

Quarters piled high upon the table.

C Am F C

And he orders Wild Turkey with a quick wit and a smile.

C Am G

He says "my darling, you're the one I'll drape in sable."

C Am F C

But his baseball cap, and his barroom rap tell me a different story

Am F G

That this is not my prince to grant all my wishes

C Am F C

Just another lonely country boy, grown weary of the night.

C Am G

Just another boy, with a sink full of dirty dishes.

Am F

And where are you tonight?

Am F

When I left you in my dreams last night,

C G F

You promised me that we would be breaking free.

F G Am

Where are you tonight?

C Am F C

And he tells me of the backroads, and I will ride them all night long.

C Am G

And the days of fate and the moon will hang forever.

C Am F C

And a cloud of dust will kick up and linger like a sun.

C Am G

And the myth will grow about the two who refused to surrender.

C Am

But as I catch us in the barroom mirror

F C

with his arm around my shoulder,

C Am G

This girl I see has grown so unfamiliar.

C Am F C

And as she stands to leave with a stranger by her side,

C Am G

She can't help but laugh at a life turned so peculiar,

Am F

And where are you tonight?

Am F

I don't think I can face tomorrow's light,

C G Am (hold)

Not knowing if you'll be there to guide me.

Em F

And where are you tonight?

Em F

I think I can make it through all right,

F Em Am (hold)

But I'd love to have you just one more time beside me.
