[Verse 1]
Gm       Bb             C
Sunshine beating on the good times
Gm        Bb               C
Moonlight raising from the grave
Gm                  Bb       C
String band playing worn-out honkey-tonks
Gm                       Bb             C
Pretty young thing going dancing in the rain
 
 
[Verse 2]
Gm             Bb              C
High heel lady spitting at the nickajacks
Gm                 Bb           C
Businessman with a needle and a spoon
Gm     Bb           C
Coyote chewing on a cigarette
Gm                       Bb             C
Pack o' young boys going howlin' at the moon
 
 
[Chorus]
Gm
Hey darlin'!
Bb              C
Sleeping on the blacktop
Gm
Hey darlin'!
Bb                  C
Running through the trees honey
Gm
Hey darlin'!
Bb              C
Leaving for the next town
Gm        Bb            C        Gm
Less'n my sense catches up with me

[Verse 3]
Gm              Bb           C
Three dead in a crash on the number 4
Gm            Bb           C
Two witnesses below and up high
Gm             Bb      C
Not sure whose will be done
Gm
You can call me a sinner for wondering why
 
 
[Chorus]
Gm
Hey darlin'!
Bb              C
Sleeping on the blacktop
Gm
Hey darlin'!
Bb                  C
Running through the trees honey
Gm
Hey darlin'!
Bb              C
Leaving for the next town
Gm        Bb            C         Gm
Less'n my sense catches up with me

[Verse 4]
Gm                 Bb          C
Corn liquor tastes sweeter in this town
Gm                   Bb          C
Could it be it's the same as the last?
Gm                     Bb       C
I swear I've seen your face elsewhere before
Gm
Just as familiar as a bottle and a glass
 
[Chorus X2]
Gm
Hey darlin'!
Bb              C
Sleeping on the blacktop
Gm
Hey darlin'!
Bb                  C
Running through the trees honey
Gm
Hey darlin'!
Bb              C
Leaving for the next town
Gm        Bb            C        Gm
Less'n my sense catches up with me
 
Gm
Hey darlin'!
Bb              C
Sleeping on the blacktop
Gm
Hey darlin'!
Bb                  C
Running through the trees honey
Gm
Hey darlin'!
Bb              C
Leaving for the next town
Gm        Bb            C        Gm
Less'n my sense catches up with me
 
[Outro]
