[Intro 1]
[G][C][D][G][C][D]

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

[Verse 2]
[D]Oh [G]take off your [C]thirsty boots
And [G]stay for [C]awhile
[G]Your feet are hot and [Em]weary
[Am]from a dusty mile[D]
An[G]d maybe I can m[C]ake
you [G]laugh
And maybe I can [C]try
[G]Lookin' for [Em]the evenin'[Am]
And the [D]mornin' in your
[G]eyes

[Interlude 1]
[G][C][D][G][C][D]

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

[Verse 4]
So [G]take off your [C]thirsty boots
and [G]stay for [C]awhile
[G]Your feet are hot [Em]and weary
[Am]from a dusty mile[D]
An[G]d maybe I can m[C]ake you
laugh and [G]maybe I can [C]try
[G]Just lookin' for [Em]the e[Am]venin' and
the [D]mornin' in your [G]eyes

[Interlude 2]
[G][C][D][G][C][D]

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

[Verse 6]
[D]Oh [G]take off your [C]thirsty boots
and [G]stay [C]for awhile
[G]Your feet are hot [Em]and weary,
[Am]from a dusty mile[D]
An[G]d maybe I can m[C]ake you laugh,
[G]and maybe I can try[C][G]
Just lookin [Em]for the [Am]evenin'
and the [D]mornin' in your [G]eyes

[Verse 7]
[G]So[C][D][G][C][D]
[G][C][D][G][C][G][C][D]
[G]take off your
[C]thirsty boots and [G]stay for [C]awhile
[G]Your feet are hot and [Em]weary
[Am]from a dusty mile[D]
An[G]d maybe I can m[C]ake you laugh
[G]and maybe I can [C]try[G]
Lookin' [Em]for the [Am]evenin' and [D]the mornin' in
[G]your [C]eyes
