C                       F       C
The night just seems to drag on forever
Em               F                  G
Waiting for that cleansing morning call
C                F                C           F
Running from the mirror, I don't see it any clearer
     C                   G                 C
As fireworks bright and loud, burn out and fall

C         F
Wild and lonesome
 G       C
Wild and lonesome
                       G                     C
You're blowing through life son Like a Texas dust storm
         F
Wild and lonesome
       G         C                  F         G
Like a child who wants some  one to play with
             C
And keep him warm

C              F                 C
Bottle full of venom's used for drowning
Em              F             C     G
The ever-loving woman all my time
C            F             C                  F
Take another toke, keep on smiling, life's a joke
        C              G                    C
Keep on going till I forget the things I've done

         F
Wild and lonesome
 G       C
Wild and lonesome
                       G                      C
You're blowing through life son Like a Texas dust storm
         F
Wild and lonesome
       G         C                  F          G
Like a child who wants some  one to play with
             C
and keep him warm

C                      F            C
When I finally see the line on the horizon
Em                  F              C      G
She illuminates the sky before my eyes
C                    F         C               F
And before I get the chance to ask her for the dance            
C               G                  C
The poison once again left me immobilized


         F
Wild and lonesome
G        C
High and stoned some
                       G                     C
You're blowing through life son Like a Texas dust storm
         F
Wild and lonesome
       G         C                  F         G
Like a child who wants some  one to play with
             C
And keep him warm
           F           G                    C
Someone to play with, feed him And keep him warm
