Artist: Amos Lee
[A#] [D#] or [Eb] [Ab] [Db] [Gb] [Bb] Eb. Amos does some different fingering's on the strings
but here are the basics.
[C]Up on Main St, they built a [G]highway
Changed its [Am]name to Johnson Boule[F]vard
Up on [C]Thursday down on [G]Friday
People ask[Am] me why are things so [F]hard
Times been [C]hard though
From [G]Laredo to San Ja[Am]cinto
And it&[F] ;#146;[G]s a long [C]way ba[G]ck home
There&#[C]146;s an old trai[G]n in a stock yard
It’[Am] ;s like a graveyard of th[F]ings come and gone
And the [C]wind moves on a [G]gravestone
Where the [Am]names gone
And everybody [F]knows
Times been [C]hard though
In [G]Laredo to San Ja[Am]cinto
And it&[F] ;#146[G] ;s a long[C] way ba[Am]ck home
Some[F]times you&[C]#146;re standin[Am]g still
And the wind just [F]beats you [C]down
Oh and s[Am]ometimes it&am[G]p;#146;s just so hard
to [D]keep your two feet right there on the [F]ground [G]
Pedal Steel Solo - [Am] [F] [C] 2x then [Am] [F] [C] [D] [F] [G] [C]
Mother&a[C]mp;#146;s faithful
She goes to [G]church still
Prays on [Am]Sunday
And Mondays [F]too
Father's[C] somewhere
In the [G]back field
Thinking out [Am]loud
That this ain'’[F]t nothing new
Times been [C]hard though
From [G]Laredo to San Ja[Am]cinto
So why don&a[F]mp;#146;[G]t we jus[Am]t go back home
[F] [G] [F] [C] [G] [F] Repeat 3x End on the [C]
Why don’t we just go back home
but here are the basics.
