Holed Up Mason City chords

CAPO: 5th Fret

INTRO: [C] [F] [G] [C] [Am] [F] [G] [C]

I'm holed up in Mason City
[F]Waiting for the [G]roads to [C]clear

Second day of a blizzard
And [Am]winter isn't even [G]here

I'm heading [F]back on I-35
At [Am]this point, I just wanna make it [C]home alive

I'm holed up in Mason City
The [G]weather isn't pretty to[C]night


I'm holed up in Mason City
[F]Waiting for my [G]luck to [C]change

Thought I'd be home already
But my [Am]plans are being rear[G]ranged

First day, [F]snow flew down from the sky
Now it's [Am]crossing the fields and it's [C]drifting high

Sudden ice upon the highway
Car [G]is blowing sideway[C]s and I


Believe I'll [Am]seek some shelter
[F]Faces Helter [G]Skelter and [C]wide
I moved [Am]over to the rumble step
I'm [G]driving with my flashers [F]on
Every [Am]tenth of a mile
I'm [G]slipping ever closer to [F]gone [G]
Ice-blue [Am]highway,[G] blue sky [F]byway [G]
Ice-blue [Am]highway,[G] blowing [F]sideways [G]

INSTRUMENTAL: [C] [F] [G] [C] [Am] [G]

At the [C]Big Bopper diner, there's a [F]bunch of stranded [G]refu[C]gees
And nobody's talking, or [Am]looking very eager to [G]please
In a [F]booth I saw Buddy Holly's ghost
[Am]Writing to the girl he [C]loved the most

I'm holed up in Mason City
The [G]future isn't ready to[C]night
I'm holing [Am]up in Mason City
The [F]future isn't [G]ready to[C]night

OUTRO: [F] [G] [C] [Am] [F] [G] [C] [G] [C]
