Lyrics & chords

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

[Verse 1]
It's [G]a southern road
[C]west of New Orleans
I'm [G]fightin' off a cold
From these [C]winter rounds
[G]Houston
[C]She's just around the corner
But [G]I think I'll stop off here in Lafayette
Lord and [C]have me another
[G]round

[Verse 2]
[Chorus:] I've been [D]work
in' [G]in corners
all alone at night
Pullin' down [D]whiskey
[G]Keepin' my eyes away from the lights
I'll never be a [D]fool but I [G]will
gamble [D]fool[G]ishly
[C]I've never let go [Bm]of love
[G]Till I [Am]lost it in [C]my [G]dreams
I [C]don't want to go [G]to sleep
[C]'Cause [G]I just might dream

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

[Verse 3]
I'm [G]stronger now,
there was a [C]man in my [G]hometown
He sang so pretty
I'm glad [C]he turned my head around
But I'd [G]forgotten how [C]to play
a one night [G]stand
Lord I didn't have a word to say
Just hold[C]in' that stranger's hand

[Interlude 2]

[Verse 4]
[G][Chorus]
[C]These[G][C][G]
[C]cit[G]y
[C]streets at five in the mornin'
[G]I would've stopped to phone you
But I'm [C]almost home
At [G]my back door
There's a [C]porch light that's shinin'
[G]I just don't mind livin' here by myself
If I [C]leave [G]it on

[Interlude 3]
[G][D][G]

[Verse 5]
[G][Chorus]
[D]I[G][D][G][C][Bm][G][Am][C][G]
[C]don't want to go to sleep
'Cause I just [G]might dream
[C]Don't want to go [G]to sleep[C]
You know I [G]sure can [C]dream
And I [G]sure can [C]dream
[G]Sure can dream
