Thirsty Man
intro
Dm
verse
Dm
I've been driving all night
Dm
On a road to nowhere
Dm
With the devils convoy, black smoke upon my tracks
Dm
Girl, I hardly knew you
Dm
But I could never fool you
Dm
You was always sitting still
Dm
While the world raced to its grave
chorus
Dm
When the morning breaks
Dm
I've been driving wide awake
Dm
Cause I've been running so long
Dm
Can't recall what it means to stay
F G Dm
Cause I let you slip away like water right through my hands
F G Dm
Oh baby, your love's like rain in a desert to a thirsty man
Dm
Thirsty man
verse
Dm
You know I've seen the mountains
Dm
And the flatlands too
Dm
I've seen all these city streets
Dm
But I still go out searching for you
Dm
Now in the captain's chamber
Dm
There's a ball and chain
Dm
You can run for a million miles but you'll never outrun your name
chorus
Dm
When the morning breaks
Dm
I've been driving wide awake
Dm
Cause I've been running so long
Dm
I can't recall what it means to stay
Dm
And all the children sing
Dm
And all the old men sing
Dm
It's better to love and lose
Dm
Than to gain a world on a string
F
Cause I let you slip away
G Dm
Like water right through my hands
F G Dm
Oh baby, your love's like rain in a desert to a thirsty man
Dm
Yeah, thirsty man
solo
Dm
chorus
Dm
When the morning breaks
Dm
I've been driving wide awake
Dm
Cause I've been running so long
Dm
Can't recall what it means to stay
F G Dm
Cause I let you slip away like water right through my hands
F G Dm
Oh honey, your love's like rain in a desert to a thirsty man
Dm
Yeah, thirsty man
