Tabbed By Larry Mofle

Capo 3

C/B - x20010

C

Jamie was a barmaid at the Underground Longrail

Em

Seems like every Friday evenin’

She’d find herself in jail

Am

Not a friend this side of Houston

With the time to throw her bail

F G

But she’ll be fine, she’ll be fine

Spent a lifetime walkin’

Through the walls of a broken home

Not a man round here still standin

For the girl to call her own

Every time she tried to hold him

She just ended up alone

But there’s still time, there’s still time

Davey drove a taxi through the streets of Boston town

Like the billboards up above him

The world just wore him down

Only soul he’d ever cared for

Was the one he’d never found

But he’ll be fine, he’ll be fine

Broken half of winter with a wind chill ten below

Davey sittin in is kitchen laughin’

’Bout how the world had done him so

Then the postman burst his bubble

With a letter from below

And now it’s time, now it’s time

Chorus

F G C C/B Am

And there’s a lot of people runnin’ around

F C G

Not quite sure which way to go

F G C C/B Am

But as for me I think I finally found

F G C G

It’s just easy come and easy go

Jamie grabbed a bottle threw her apron on the bar

Packed her whole world in a suitcase

And tossed it in the car

Woke up in Texarkana

Wonderin’ how she got this far

And on her own, on her own

Stranger at the motel let Jamie stay for free

She was gone before the daybreak

On her way to Tennessee

Lookin’ to make the whole world over

Into a place she wants to be

But not alone, not alone

Davey left his taxi in the bottom of a Beantown lake

He said this whole world’s full of chance

And this is one I gotta take

So he caught the line to Nashville

To finally find his break

And make a home, make a home

As the train flew out of Boston, his whole world passed him by

He said I spent a lifetime runnin’

And now’s the time to try

If I can’t find someone to hold me

My dreams will surely die

And I’ll be gone, I’ll be gone

Chorus

Bridge:

Am

When Davey hit the pavement

F

the sky was almost grey

C

He lit a smoke off of the sidewalk

G

To drive the storm away

Am

And when Jamie turned the corner

F

With the world upon her brow

C

Davey said I must be dreamin’

G

How could this happen now

Am

And then she walked right towards him

F

Looked him right up in the eye

C

Davey reached out for forever

G

And Jamie walked on by
