if i weren’t leavin’ , would i catch you dreamin’
and if i weren’t gonna be gone now , could i take you home
and if i told you i love you , would it change what you see
and if i was staying , would you stay with me
and if i had money , would it all look good
and if i had a job now , like a good man should
and if i came to you tomorrow , and said let’s run away
would you roll like the wind does , baby would you stay
my heart is dancin’ , to a november tune
and i hope that you hear it , singing songs about you
and i sing songs of sorrow , because you’re not around
see , babe i’m gone tomorrow , baby follow me down
i don’t know why i have to , but this man must move on
i love my time here , didn’t know ’til i was gone

the mind of a girl ,
it’s hard to understand , but i guess ’cause i’m a man
her heart fears are unknown ,
until i Am gone , gotta leave her all alone
beside the yellow line
and the call of the road ,
unlike the railroad tracks , unlike the airplane path
her voice floats , through the land
and it takes me by the hand , so once again i stand
beside the yellow line

intro chords :
C Am F G x1
C Am G C
the show was over it’s all in the name
C Am G C
it never was before but this ain’t the same
C Am G C
so try to imagine a time and a place
C Am F G C
where the enemy won and the hero was slain
and poetic justice burns in the minds
of five diying soldiers on the front lines
with nobody’s singing in nobody’s ears
no one’s disappointed , nobody hears
i know a lady , promise her name
the price of her visit suffering and pain
and we gladly waited and we gladly paid
we watched the sun rise , she never came
an electric current moves us around
we sank to our knees to worship the sound
but nobody told us that we’d rise again
imagine a hero unable to win
imagine a hero unable to win

i gotta get up the nerve to pick up the phone
it’s you sweet mama i’m – a gonna carry you back home!
E D A
way out to old wyom
i prob’ly shoulda thought about lettin’ you know , uh huh
if i love you like i do i shoulda told you so , uh huh
well i think about you each and every day ,
it’s just my knees are gettin’ weak when i try to say
Bm D A
oh baby , please be mine
gotta feelin’ that i’m barkin’ up and empty tree
how could someone so beautiful think about me?
put my tail between my legs and turn my back
try on my trusty ramblin’ sack
E D A
i’m off to old wyom

8 . closing night
tuning : eadgbe
tabbed by : macheeoo
intro chords :
C Am F G x1
C Am G C
the show was over it’s all in the name
C Am G C
it never was before but this ain’t the same
C Am G C
so try to imagine a time and a place
C Am F G C
where the enemy won and the hero was slain
and poetic justice burns in the minds
of five diying soldiers on the front lines
with nobody’s singing in nobody’s ears
no one’s disappointed , nobody hears
i know a lady , promise her name
the price of her visit suffering and pain
and we gladly waited and we gladly paid
we watched the sun rise , she never came
an electric current moves us around
we sank to our knees to worship the sound
but nobody told us that we’d rise again
imagine a hero unable to win
imagine a hero unable to win
