F Bb
It's midnight at a liquor store in Texas.
F C7
Beneath the neon, close up's just begun.
F BbG
When a boy walks in the door and points a pistol.
F C7 F
He can't find a job, but man, he's found a gun.
F Bb
But a change of heart before there's confrontation.
F C7
Let's the old man live and run out in the street.
F Bb G
But he knows that soon they'll come with guns a blazing.
F C7 F
And already he can feel a great relief.
F EbBb
Oh how many travlers get weary,
F C7
Bearing both their burdens and their scars,
F
Don't you think they'd love to stop
Eb Bb
complaining,
F C7 F
and fly like eagles out among the stars.
F Bb
He pictures the arrival of the cruisers.
F C7
Sees that old familiar anger in their eyes.
F Bb G
He knows that when they're shooting at this loser,
F C7 F
They'll be aiming at the deamons in their lives.
F Bb
Oh how many travlers get weary,
F C7
Bearing both their burdens and their scars,
F Bb G
Don't you think they'd love to stop complaining,
