My arms were [D]shaking like
[F]a chicken winged cou[G]p.
I had it all spelled [D]out for me, [F]in my alphabet soup,
[G]and those soup cans and pop bot[D]tles dancin[F]g in the new[G].
And the nervous radio played for[D]gotten songs,
[F]that only an orphan could remem[G]ber.
And then everything fell [D]apart, [F]then everything came togeth[G]er,
and there were shoelaces there
a million [D]miles long, [F]and I was [G]gone.

My bank account [D]just fell through.
El[F]ma says it happened to [G]her son,
and now I'm hitting [D]the road.
