Introducción:
G Bm
You've been long and on the open road,
Am D
You?ve been sleepin? in the rain.
G Em
From the dirty words and muddy cells,
Am D
Your clothes are smeared and stained.
G Em
But the dirty words and muddy cells,
Am D
Will soon be judged insane.
G C
So only stop and rest yourself,
Am D
?Til you are off again.
G C
And, take off your thirsty boots,
G C
And stay for awhile.
G Em
Your feet are hot and weary,
Am D
From a dusty mile.
G C
And maybe I can make you laugh,
Am D
And maybe I can try.
G Em
Just looking for the evening,
C D G
And the mornin? in your eye.
REFRAIN:(Acoustic lead over)
G Bm
Then tell me of the ones you saw,
Am D
As far as you could see.
G Em
Across the plains from field to town,
Am D
Marching to be free.
G Bm
And of the rusty prison gates,
Am D
That tumble by degree,
G C
Like laughing children, one by one,
Am D
Who look like you and me.
G C
Then, take off your thirsty boots,
G C
And stay for awhile.
G Em
Your feet are hot and weary,
Am D
From a dusty mile.
G C
And maybe I can make you laugh,
Am D
And maybe I can try.
G Em
Just looking for the evening,
Am D G
And the mornin? in your eye.
Instrumental:(Acoustic lead, piano and harmonica over)
G Bm
I know that you?re no stranger,
Am D
Down the crooked rainbow trail.
G Em
From dancing cliffheads, shattered sills,
Am D
Of slandered shackled jails.
G Bm
But the voices drift up from below,
Am D
As his walls are being scaled.
G
And all of this,
Em
And more my friend,
Am D
Your song shall not be failed.
G Em
Then, take off your thirsty boots,
Am D
And stay for awhile.
G Em
Your feet are hot and weary,
Am D
From a dusty mile.
G C
And maybe I can make you laugh,
Am D
And maybe I can try.
G Em
Just looking for the evening,
Am D G
And the mornin? in your eye.
