INTRO: D Dsus2 D G D Dsus2 D A7 D

D

At a quick shop somewhere west of Albuquerque

A7

Got a tank of gas, a cold drink, and a beef jerky

D D/F# G

The cashier she gave me a smile

D A7 D

So I stood there and I talked to her awhile

G D

She said "where you headed, I hope you get there soon

A7

I've seen 'em all day long, from 4 a.m. to noon

D D/F# G

Some are runnin' from, some are runnin' to

D A7 D

Some are runnin' blind, Lord, which one are you"

D G D

Well I said "it don't appear to me to be so cut and dried

A7

You don't know me from Adam, can it be so black and white"

D G D

I said "I got a plan you see I got it figured out

A7 D

How can you be so sure my dear of what I'm all about"

G D

She said "I've stood in this window for twenty-seven years

A7

I can tell you cash or credit, I can tell your brand of beer

D D/F# G

I can tell you who's liar, and the truth is plain to see

D A7 D

That's your last twenty boy, and don't you lie to me"

G D

"There's a girl in Albuquerque cryin' ain't there

G A7

And you're standin' in a quick shop lyin', ain't ya...well?"

D G

She handed back my twenty, said "you know what to do

D A7

If you drive it steady son you'll be home this afternoon

D D/F# G

And I hate to judge you, I don't mean to seem unkind

D A7 D

But there ain't no use in runnin' if you're only runnin' blind"

G D A7 D

Nah there ain't no use in runnin' if you're only runnin' blind
