CAPO: 1st Fret
[INTRO:] C G Am G ~ ~ ~ C
[VERSE 1:]
[G]Try to under[Am]stand[D]
I'm not your ordinary [F]man, still I [C]can't de[F]ny
You go [D7/F#]with me everywhere
When I'm [F]dreaming you still [D7/F#]share my lonely [C]nig[G]hts[C][G][C]
[VERSE 2:]
[G]Try to see my [Am]side[D]
It's not your ordinary [F]pride that keeps [C]driving me [F]on
It's that [D7/F#]lonesome, restless feeling that you [F]feel under the gun
C D7 G ~ ~ Am
And it leads me to the highway, but it keeps my body warm
[CHORUS:]
And as I [D7]wander to the [G]cities and the [Am]towns
I get so lonesome knowing [G]you could be a[C]round
And [Am]when the show is [D7]over, there's a [G]Holiday Mo[Am]tel
F E E7 ~ ~ C
Another empty bottle and another tale to tell
[VERSE 3:]
[G]Try to compre[Am]hend[D]
I'm not your ordinary [F]friend at the [C]end of my [F]life
I would [D7/F#]pray that I could be
Re[F]turning to the [D7/F#]shelter of your [C]love[G]__[C][G][C]
[VERSE 4:]
[G]Try to see my [Am]side[D]
It's not your ordinary [F]pride that keeps [C]driving me [F]on
It's that [D7/F#]lonesome, restless feeling that you [F]feel under the gun
C D7 G ~ ~ Am
And it leads me to the highway, but it keeps my body warm
[CHORUS:]
And as I [D7]wander to the [G]cities and the [Am]towns
I get so lonesome knowing [G]you could be a[C]round
And [Am]when the show is [D7]over, there's a [G]Holiday Mo[Am]tel
F E E7 ~ ~ C
And another empty bottle and another tale to tell
[VERSE 5:]
[G]Try to under[Am]stand[D]
I'm not your ordinary [F]man, still I [C]can't de[F]ny
You go [D7/F#]with me everywhere, like a [F]shadow in the gloom
I re[C]member all the good times, there's a [D7]ghost in every room
