Gorilla Rodeo — Lonesome Road

Am
Where the firestorms are howling through the land
And the riverboats are drowning in the sand
G
Where the hinges of the window shutters groan
Am
Was my father's home
 
Am
Where the schoolbell's ringin' way down Lincoln Square
And the sound of broken playgrounds fill the air
G
I see skeletons of greyhounds lay and rust
Am
And their trails in the dust
G
And I still can hear the children in the park
Am
Where they danced in the dark
 
C                   G
And I'm all on my own
Dm                   F
On that long lonesome road
C                      G           Am
I will roam 'til I'm old in my bones
C                      G
And I'm waiting in vain
Dm                   F
For the late evening train
C                      G         E
'Til the day when it takes me away
