In the middle of (I go walking in) |

In the middle of the | night |
I go walking in my sleep
| G7 | C |
From the | mountains of | faith |
| Cmaj7 | D |
To the | river so | deep |

I must be looking for | something |
Something sacred I lost
| G7 | C |
But the | river is | wide |
| Cmaj7 | D |
And it’s | too hard to | cross |
Em | Gmaj7 |
And even though I know the | river is wide |
| Cmaj7 | G |
I walk | down every evening and | stand on the shore |
Cmaj7 | Gmaj7 |
I try to cross to the | opposite side |
| A7 | D |
So I can | finally find out what I’ve been | looking for |
| G |
In the middle of the | night |
I go walking in my sleep
| G7 | C |
Through the | valley of | fear |
| Cmaj7 | D |
To a | river so | deep |
| G |
I’ve been searching for | something |
Taken out of my soul
| G7 | C |
Something | I could never | lose |
| Cmaj7 | D |
Something | somebody | stole |
| Em | Gmaj7 |
I | don’t know why I go | walking at night |

But now I’m | tired and I don’t want to | walk anymore |

I | hope it doesn’t take the | rest of my life |
| A7 | D |
Until I | find what it is I’ve been | looking for |
| G |
In the middle of the | night |
I go walking in my sleep
| G7 | C |
Through the | jungle of | doubt |
| Cmaj7 | D |
To the | river so | deep |

I know I’m | searching for something |
Something so undefined
| G7 | C |
That it can | only be | seen |

Through the | desert of | truth |

To the | river so | deep |

We all end in the | ocean |
We all start in the streams
| G7 | C |
We’re all | carried a | long |

By the | river of | dreams |

In the middle of the | night |
I go walking in the, in the middle of the

Girl, I'm here for you
All those times at night when you just hurt me
And just ran out with that other fellow
Baby I knew about it, I just didn't care
You just don't understand how much I love you, do you?
I'm here for you
I'm not out to go out there and cheat all night
Just like you did baby, but that's all right
Heh, I love you anyway, and I'm still going to be here for you till by dying day baby
Right now, I'm just in so much pain, baby, 'cause you just won't come back to me, will you?
Just come back to me!!!

Make them take away my | pain | | | |

Leave the cold out | side |

Please don’t let it | rain | |

Don’t stumble on my | pride |

The crowd applauds the curtain | falls |

You | took away my hero | |

Will you take away my | pain | | | |

Let the cold in | side |

It’s time to let it | rain | |

There’s nothing left to | hide |

Am7 | C | Dsus4 |

Am7 | C | Dsus4 |
I turned on the lights, the TV, | and the radi | o |
Am7 | C | Dsus4 |
Still I can’t escape the ghost of | you | |
Am7 | Em7 |
What has happened to it all? C | razy some would say |
B7 | C |
Where is the life that I recogni | ze, gone away |
G | Dm7 |
But I won’t cry for yesterd | ay |

G | Dm7 | A#sus2 |
And as I try to make my | way to the ordinary | world |

I will | learn to sur | vive |
Am7 | C | Dsus4 |
Papers in the roadside tell of | suffering and | greed |
Am7 | C | Dsus4 |
Feared today, forgot tomorrow | | |
Am7 | C | Dsus4 |
Here beside the news of holy | war and holy | need |
Am7 | C |
Ours is just a little sorrowed | talk |
G | Dm7 |
And I don’t cry for yesterd | ay |

Six o’clock on Friday evening, mama doesn’t know she’s leaving |
’Til she hears the screen door slamming, rubber squealin’, gears a-jamming
A |
Local country station just a-blarin’ on the radio |
E |
Pick him up at seven and they’re headin’ to the rodeo |
B |
Mama’s on the front porch screamin’ out her warning |
| E |
Girl you’d | better get your red head back in bed before morning |
E |
Nine o’clock the show is ending but the fun is just beginning |
She knows he’s anticipating but she gonna keep him waiting
A |
Grab a bite to eat and then they’re headin’ to the honky-tonk |
| E |
But l | oud crowds and line dancing just ain’t what they really want |
B |
Drive out to the boondocks and park down by the creek |
| E |
Yeah where it’s | George Strait ‘til real late and dancing cheek to cheek |
A |
Ain’t going down ‘til the sun comes up |
E | G |
Ain’t givin’ in ‘til they get enough | |

Going ‘round the world in a pickup truck |

Papa drove a truck nearly all his life |
| A7 |
You know it | drove mama crazy being a trucker’s wife |
| B7 |
The | part she couldn’t handle was the being alone |
| C | B7 |
I guess she | needed more to hold than just a | telephone |
E5 |
Papa called Mama each and every night |
| A7 |
Just to | ask her how she was and if us kids were alright |
B7 |
Mama would wait for that call to come in |
| C | B7 | E7 |
And when | Daddy’d hang up she was | gone a | gain |
A7 |
Mama was a looker lord how she shined |
E7 |
Papa was a good’n but the jealous kind |
A7 |
Papa loved Mama, Mama loved men |
E7 | B7 | E5 |
Mama’s in the graveyard | Papa’s in the | pen |
E5 |
Well it was bound to happen and one night it did |
A7 |
Papa came home and it was just us kids |
| B7 |
He had a | dozen roses and a bottle of wine |
| C | B7 |
If he was | lookin’ to surprise us he was | doin’ fine |
E5 |
I heard him cry for Mama up and down the hall |
| A7 |
Then I | heard a bottle break against the bedroom wall |
| B7 |
That | old diesel engine made an eerie sound |
| C | B7 | E7 |
When Papa | fired it up and headed | into | town |
| A7 |
Well the | picture in the paper showed the scene real well |
E7 |
Papa’s rig was buried in the local motel |
| A7 |
The | desk clerk said he saw it all real clear |
| E7 | B7 | E5 |
He never | hit the brakes and he was | shifting | gears |
A7 |
Mama was a looker lord how she shined |
E7 |
Papa was a good’n but the jealous kind |
A7 |
Papa loved Mama, Mama loved men |
E7 | B7 | E5 |
Mama’s in the graveyard | Papa’s in the | pen |
| E5 |
His | eyes are cold and restless |
| A | E5 |
His | wounds have almost | healed |
| A | E5 |
And | she’d give half of | Texas |
| A | E5 |
Just to | change the way he | feels |
| E5 |
She | knows his love’s in Tulsa |
| A |
And she | knows he’s gonna go |
| E5 |
Well it | ain’t no woman flesh and blood |
| B7 |
It’s that | damned old rodeo |
| E |
Well it’s | bulls and blood, it’s dust and mud |
| A | E |
It’s the | roar of a Sunday | crowd |
| E |
It’s the | white in his knuckles, the gold in the buckle |
| B7 | D | B |
He’ll | win the next go ‘round | | |
| E |
It’s | boots and chaps, it’s cowboy hats |
| A | E |
It’s | spurs and lati | go, it’s the ropes and the reins |
| B7 | E5 |
And the joy and the pain and they | call the thing rode | o |
| E5 |
She | does her best to hold him |
| A | E5 |
When | his love comes to | call |
| A | E5 |
But his | need for it cont | rols him |
| A | E5 |
And her | back’s against the | wall |
| E5 |
And it’s | so long girl I’ll see you |
| A | A | G |
When it’s | time for him to go | | |
| E5 |
You know the | woman wants her cowboy |
| B7 |
Like he | wants his rodeo |
| E |
Well it’s | bulls and blood, it’s dust and mud |
| A | E |
It’s the | roar of a Sunday | crowd |
| E |
It’s the | white in his knuckles, the gold in the buckle |
| B7 | D | B |
He’ll | win the next go ‘round | | |

It’s | boots and chaps, it’s cowboy hats |
| A | E |
It’s | spurs and lati | go, it’s the ropes and the reins |
| B7 | E5 |
And the joy and the pain and they | call the thing rode | o |
| E7 |
It’ll | drive a cowboy crazy |
| A | E7 |
It’ll | drive a man in | sane |
| A | E5 |
And he’ll | sell off every | thing he owns |
A | E5 |
Just to pay to play the | game |
| E5 |
And a | broken home and some broken bones |
| A |
Is | all he’ll have to show |
| E5 |
For | all the years that he spent chasin’ |
| B7 |
This | dream they call rodeo |
| E |
Well it’s | bulls and blood, it’s dust and mud |

It’s the | roar of a Sunday | crowd |

And s | ometimes we get burned |

The | one you love is the one that should take you | higher |

You ain’t | got no one, you better | go back | out and | find her |

Just like c | hildren hiding in a closet |

Can’t tell what’s | going on outside |

Sometimes we’re | so far off the beaten track |

We get | taken for a ride |
| C | D |
By a p | arlor trick, or some | words of wit |
| G/B | C |
A h | idden hand up a | sleeve |

To think the | one you love could hurt you, now |

Is a little hard to beli | eve |

But everybody, darlin’, sometimes bites the hand that | feed |

W | hen I look around, an’ | everybody always brings me down |

Well, is it t | hem or me, well, I just can’t see |

But there a | in’t no peace to found |

But if | someone really | cared |

Well, they’d | take the time to s | pare |

But if I | call you out of habit |

I’m out of | love and I gotta have it |

Would you g | ive it to me if I fit your needs? |

Like | when we both knew we had it |

And we’re b | ack out on the | run |

Funny how | everything was roses when we held on to the | guns |

Just because you’re winnin’ don’t mean you’re the lucky | one |
| G | C |
Breakdown | (let me hear it now) | |
There goes the challenger being chased
By the blue, blue meanies on wheels
The vicious traffic squad cars are after our lone driver
The last American hero, the, the electric sin-tar
The demi-god, the super driver of the golden West
Two nasty Nazi cars are close behind the beautiful lone driver
The police cars are getting closer, closer
Closer to our soul hero in his soul mobile, yeah baby
They about to strike, they gonna get him, smash! rape!
The last beautiful free soul on this planet
But it is written if the evil spirit
Arms the tiger with claws
Brahman provided wings for the dove
Thus spake the super guru
Did you hear that?
What we've got here is failure to communicate
Some men, you just can't reach
So you get what we had here last week, which is the way he wants it
Well, he gets it, and I don't like it any more than you men

Of mayors and government officials
For example, to create a vacuum
Then we fill that vacuum
As popular war advances
Peace is closer

It’s a | mass of confusion, like the lies they sell to you |

You got a g | lass-jawed toothache of a mental disease |
And they be running ‘round back, see them line up on their knees
'Cause the kiss-ass sycophants, throwing penance at your feet
When they got nowhere to go
Watch them come in off the streets

While they’re | banging out front |
Inside they’re slamming to the crunch
Go on and throw me to the lions
And the whole damn screaming bunch
Cause the pissed-off rip-offs, are everywhere you turn
Tell me how a generation's ever supposed to learn

It’s not a problem you can stop it’s rock n’ roll

I r | ead it on a wall, it went straight to my head |
It said, “dance to the tension of a world on edge”
We got racial violence, and who'll cast the first stone?
And sex is used any way it can be

Sometimes, when I look out, it’s hard to see the day |

This f | ire’s burning, and it’s out of control |
It’s not a problem you can stop it’s rock n’ roll

Looking through this point of view |
There’s no way I’m gonna fit in
Don't you tell me what my eyes see
Don't you tell me who to believe in

I ain’t superstitious, but I know when something’s wrong |
I’ve been dragging my heels with a bitch called hope

Most o | rganized religions make a mockery of humanity |
Our governments are dangerous and out of control
The Garden of Eden is just another graveyard
Said, if they had someone to buy it
Then I'm sure they'd sell my soul

This f | ire’s burning, and it’s out of control |
It’s not a problem you can stop it’s rock n’ roll
G |
Lost in the Garden of Eden (and we ain’t talkin’ about no poison apple) |
Said, we’re lost in the Garden of Eden
And there's no one's gonna believe this (or some missin' rib, ya hear?)
But we're lost in the Garden of Eden

If I said that you're my friend, and our love would never end

How long before I had your trust again | |

I | opened up the doors when it was cold outside |
Hopin’ that you’d find your own way in
But how can I protect you, or try not to neglect you
When you won't take the love I have to give

You k | now I never thought that it could take so long |
You know I never knew how to be strong
Yeah, I let you shape me, but I feel as thought you raped me
'Cause you climbed inside my world and in my songs
So now I've closed the door to keep the cold outside
Seems somehow I've found the will to live
How can I forget you, or try not to reject you

Gonna have some fun with my frustration |
Gonna watch the big screen in my head
I'd rather take a detour
'Cause this road ain't getting clearer
Your train of thought has cut me off again
Better tame that boy 'cause he's a wild one
Better tame that boy 'fore he's a man
Sweetheart don't make me laugh
You's getting too big for your pants
And I's think maybe you should cut out while you can

In passing by this love that’s passed away
I know it's never easy, so why should you believe me
When I've always got so many things to say
Calling off the dogs a simple choice is made
'Cause playful hearts can sometimes be enraged
You know I tried to wake you, I mean how long could it take you
