Standard (EADGBE)
Half drunk in Chicago,
waiting for my train to come in
I must have missed it five times or more, I was
lower than I ever been
I climbed the hill by the racetrack and watched them
cars go 'round and 'round
Just starin' out that window,
watching the world go 'round
I knew a guy from Houston
he was a wrecking ball
Six by six, he was hard as nails and
stood about ten feet tall
He sobered up and moved down south Found him a
man and settled down
Just starin' out that window,
watching the world go 'round
I been stuck 'round here for what
seems like way too long And I
seen all them old sad faces Everybody
singing that same old song
And I don't wanna be caught 'round here when that
Judgement Day comes down
starin' out that window,
watching the world go 'round
There was a guy in the men's room
Name was Charlie Fry
He stumbled in throwing punches And
never bothered to say why
I ran from there just as fast as I could
Cus he weighed about 300 pounds
starin' out that window,
watching the world go 'round
Yeah I been stuck 'round here for what
seems like way too long And I
seen all them old sad faces Everybody
singing that same old song
And I don't wanna be caught 'round here when that
Judgement Day comes down
starin' out that window,
watching the world go 'round
I met a gal on the West Coast
She said she'd leave me next day
She stuck around for a year and a half and
we were happy that way
She was the best damn woman that I
guess I ever found
starin' out that window,
watching the world go 'round
starin' out that window,
watching the world go 'round, yeah round
starin' out that window,
watching the world go 'round
