[Verse]
D
Fell asleep on a Greyhound
        G                        D
Woke up three-hundred miles from home

With the north wind dancin' like Gene Kelly
                            A
The sky lookin' like rusted chrome
Bm
Bus wheels winding like a hard-luck gambler
G             D
On and on and on

Looks like here I go again
     A                     D
Flat broke at the break of dawn


I leaned across the aisle and asked an older man
               G                   D
"Sir could you tell me the time of day"

He just smiled and said "Son I'm five minutes fast
                          A
I got twenty minutes till eight"
       Bm
I just closed my eyes and pictured you
         G               D
Probably just now wakin' up

I opened my eyes and for thirty-five years
       A                  D
I just stared down into a whiskey cup


[Chorus]
        G                                 D
I could almost hear the sound of one hand clappin'
        A                            D
I could almost see the shadow of the wind
    G                             D
Old memories make a lonely boy go crazy
       A                    D
And it looks like here I go again


[Break]
G  D  A  D


[Verse]
D
Talked to a girl sittin' next to me
         G                  D    
Said I's goin' down to Tennessee

Told her I was a poet
                              A
She said she'd never heard of me
    Bm
The memories like some stoned old soldier
G                   D
Stumbled through my mind
               
Made me wonder if where I was bound
    A                D 
Was worth all I left behind


[Chorus]
        G                                 D
I could almost hear the sound of one hand clappin'
I could almost see the shadow of the wind
Old memories make a lonely boy go crazy
And it looks like here I go again


[Chorus/Outro]
And silence is the sound of one hand clappin'
Illusions are the shadow of the wind
Memories are just a lonely boy gone crazy
And it looks like here I go again
       A                               G     D A D
And it looks like I'm headin' that way again
