Tono: C

Introducción:  C/G   G6   Dm   C/G   G6   F   C/G  

                       G6                         Dm       C/G 
Jamie ran aground out in Ohio
                       G6                         F           C/G 
Wife left for the great unknown
                                       G6                   Dm                 C/G 
He says he's gonna take to the high road
                                                       F           C/G 
And she will find a place alone
                                 G6                                 Dm         C/G 
He said he just could not make her happy
                             G6                           F           C/G 
That he never tried so hard before
                                               G6             Dm                 C/G 
He'd wake up first and make the coffee
                                                       F 
Now the mornings were like war
                     Am                                               G 
There's a barroom for every way the wind blows
             Am                                                 F 
And a harness for every mother's son
         Am                                                           G 
You pull your own weight or else it pulls you
                         Am                                                 C/G 
And it gets harder the longer that you run
                                   G6                                   Dm               C/G 
Jamie's from the last great breed of roadmen
                                 G6                   F           C/G 
Woody, Jack and Kerouac and such
                               G6                         Dm             C/G 
But here was a woman he would die for
                                                     F           C/G 
Beauty no road could ever touch
                                         G6                         Dm                   C/G 
The town was nearly famous for the glassworks
                                               G6                                 F           C/G 
The factory where they made hoods for the Klan
                                                       G6                     Dm                         C/G 
There's a football hall-of-famer in the phonebook
                                                                     F 
There's only trouble for an empty man
                                   Am                                               G 
'Cause there's a barroom for every way the wind blows
                 Am                                               F 
And temptation in every substance known
         Am                                                           G 
You pull your own weight or else it pulls you
                 Am                                                     C/G           Dm   C/G   F 
It gets harder the older that you've grown
 C/G                       G6                           Dm                     C/G 
At home in the Harley-ridden pool-halls
                                           G6                           F           C/G 
Guess it's best they never had those kids
                             G6                             Dm               C/G 
Closer to the outlaws than the in-laws
                                                     G6                                     F 
'Said Jamie's heart don't break, but I know it did
                     Am                                   G6                                     F 
They said Jamie's heart don't break, but I know it did
 C/G                             G6                       Dm               C/G 
He will find some refuge in his music
                                           G6                         F           C/G 
And a long shot that they will reconcile
                                     G6                             Dm               C/G 
The meantime is a mean time and he knows it
                                                                   F 
'Til the day he's back up on the pile
                         Am                                             G 
Now there's headlights heading from Ohio
                         Am                                         F 
And there's teardrops saltier than rain
                 Am                                                           G 
There's taillights to tell a tale still tender
             Am                                                       C/G 
And a cold wind blowing through the night
                     Am                                                   C/G 
There's a cold wind blowing through tonight
