Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]You've long been [D]on the [C]open [G]road
you've been [C]sleepin' [G]in [D]the rain
From [G]dirty [D]words and [C]muddy cell[G]s
[C]your clothes [G]are soiled [D]an d stained
But [G]the dirty [D]words and the [Em]mud of
[C]cell[G] s wi[C]ll soon be[G] judged in[D]sane
So [G]only stop and [C]rest your[G]self
and [C]you'll be [G]off again
[D]

[Verse 2]
Oh [G]take off [C]your thirsty boots
And [G]stay for [C]awhile
[G]Your feet are hot and weary
[Am]from a dus[D]ty mile
And [G]maybe I can [C]make you laugh
[G]And maybe I can [C]try
[G]Lookin' for the evenin'
And [Am]the morn[D] in' in your
eye[G]s
[C][G]

[Verse 3]
[C]
[G]Then tell me [D]of the [C]ones [G]you saw
As [C]far as you could [G]see[D]
[G]Across [D]the plains from
[C]field [G]to town
[C]Marchin' to be [D]free
And [G]of the [D]rusted [C]prison [G]gates
that [C]tumble by [D]degree
Like [G]laughing children [C]one by [G]one
They [C]look like [G]you an[D]d me

[Verse 4]
[D]
So [G]take off [C]your thirsty boots
and [G]stay for [C]awhile
[G]Your feet are hot and weary
[Am]from a dus[D]ty mile
And [G]maybe I can [C]make you laugh
and [G]maybe I can [C]try
Just [G]lookin' for the evenin' and [Am]the morn[D] in' in your eyes[G]

[Verse 5]
I [G]know you [D]are no [C]stranger [G]down
[C]the crooked rainbow tri[D]al
From [G]dancing cliff edge [Em]shattered sill[G]s
[C]to slander shackled [D]jails
Where the [G]voices drift up [Em]from [C]be
[G]low as [C]walls are bein' [D]scaled
Yes [G]all of this and [C]more my [G]friend
[C]your song shall not be failed
[D]

[Verse 6]
Oh [G]take off [C]your thirsty boots
and [G]stay for [C]awhile
[G]Your feet are hot and weary,
[Am]from a dusty mile[D]

and [G]maybe I can [C]try
Just [G]lookin for the evenin' and [Am]the [D]mornin' in your eyes[G]

So [G]take off [C]your thirsty boots
and [G]stay for [C]awhile

And [G]maybe I can [C]make you laugh
and [G]maybe I can [C]try
[G]Lookin' for the evenin' and [Am]the morn
[C]in'[D] in your eye[G]s
