     Am                 D            Bm7The windows cracked I'm on the interstate
        Am              D      Em                 CJust a hundred miles to go on half a tank of gasoline

VERSE:
   G              D                EmI met a man in a diner outside of Hays
         Am                    DHe said marriage brought him there
    Bm7It was divorce that made him stay
   Am                   D             EmI drove straight through to Junction City
           C                AmI thought I'd call you in Topeka
 BBut I didn't want the pity

BREAK:
                   Am              EmFeels like I been thrown into the slammer
          Am            EmWith the back end of a hammer
Am                Em  Drawn over my strings
Am                 EmAw, living became needing
    Am            EmMy crying became bleeding
        Am         EmAnd now I am only dreaming
