That Song About the Midway Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]I m[C]et [G]you[D] on a mid[A] way[D][Dsus4][G]
[F#m]at a fair[G] last ye[D]ar
And you stood [A]out [D]like [G]a r[F#m]uby
[G]in a black man[D]'s ear
You [C]were playing on the [G]horses
[D]You were playing on the guitar [C]strings
You [G]were playing like [Dsus4]a devil weari[D]ng wings,
wearing [C]wings
You looked so grand wear[D]ing [G]wing[D]s
Do you [C]tape them to
your shoulders just [D]to sing?
Can [C]you fly?
I heard you can, can [D]you [G]fly?[D]
Like an [C]eagle doin' your hunt
[Dsus4]ing from the s[D]ky
[C][G]

[Verse 2]
[D]
I [A]followed with [D]the sideshows
[G]to [F#m]anothe[G]r town[D]
And I found you in [G]a trail[D]er [F#m]on
the [G]camp[D]ing grounds
You [C]were betting on [G]some lover
[D]You were shaking up the [C]dice
And I [G]thought I saw [Dsus4]you cheating [D]once or twice,
once or [C]twice

[Verse 3]
I heard your [C]bid once [Dsus4]or twice[G][D]
Were you [C]wondering was the gamble
[Dsus4]worth the price[C]?[D]
Pack it [C]in
I heard you did pack [Dsus4]it in[G][D]
Was it [C]hard to fold a hand
[Dsus4]you knew could win[C]?[D]
[C][G]

[Verse 4]
[D]
So [A]lately you've [D]been [G]hiding,
[F#m]it was[G] somewhere in the news[D]
And I'm still at these [G]races [F#m]with
[G]my ticket stubs and [D]my blues
And a [C]voice calls out the num[G]bers,
and [D]it sometimes mention[C]s mine
And [G]I feel like I've been
[Dsus4]work ing over[D]time

[Verse 5]
[D]
Over [C]time I've lost my fire,
[Dsus4]over time[G][D]
Always [C]playin' one more hand
[Dsus4]for one more dime[C][D]
Slowin' [C]down, I'm gettin' tired
Slow[D]in' [G]down
[D]An d I [C]envy you the valley
that [D]you've found
'Cause I'm [C]midway down
the midway
Slowin' [D]down, down,
[C]dow[G]n, dow[D]n
[C][G][D]
