Dm G
I think about that day I left him at a Greyhound station
C A
West of Santa Fé , we were seventeen
Dm G C
but he was sweet and it was true, still I did what I had to do
Am
' Cuz I just knew
Dm G
Summer Sunday nights we' d sink into our seats
C
Right as they dimmed out all the lights
A Dm
The Technicolor world made out of music and machine
G C
It called me to be on that screen
Am
And live inside each scene
F
Without a nickel to my name
G
Hopped a bus, here I came
Am
Could be brave or just insane
Em
We' ll have to see
F
' Cuz maybe in that sleepy town
G
He' ll sit one day, the lights are down
C E
He' ll see my face and think of how he used to know me
F G Am
Climb these hills I' m reaching for the heights
Dm G C
And chasing all the lights that shine
Am G
And when they let you down (it' s another day of sun)
Am G
You' ll get up off the ground (it' s another day of sun)
Am G C E
As morning rolls around and it' s another day of sun
(verse 2)
Dm G C
I hear ' em ev' ry day, the rhythms in the canyons that' ll never fade away
A Dm
The ballads in the barrooms left by those who came before
G C
They say "you gotta want it more"
Am
So I bang on ev' ry door
F
And even when the answer' s "no"
G
Or when my money' s running low
Am
The dusty mic and neon glow
Em
Are all I need
F
And someday as I sing my song
G
A small-town kid' ll come along
C E
That' ll be the thing to push him on and go go
F G Am
Climb these hills I' m reaching for the heights
Dm G C
And chasing all the lights that shine
Am G
And when they let you down (it' s another day of sun)
Am G
You' ll get up off the ground (it' s another day of sun)
Am G C E
As morning rolls around and it' s another day of sun
Dm G C
And when they let you down
A Dm G
The morning rolls around
