Bus Station Tom Russell
By Dave Alvin as performed by Tom Russel on «Modern Art»
B[C]us station, at [Am]sun-up, lo[C]okin’ for a new, p[Am]lace to go
He sip[C]s his coffie, and h[Am]e pulls his ring,
and thinks of how s[F]he looked years [G]ago
And[C] she curls up, wit[Am]h a blanket, in[C] a yellow, plasti[Am]c seat
He[C] touches her, and she looks o[Am]ut the window,
at a[F]n empty morning s[G]treet
Chorus:
Well, he[Am] musta had a screw loo[F]se, in his [C]head
[Am]To end up like this after a[F]ll he s[C]aid
H[F]e lies to her, [C]she kisses him, [F]gettin’ ti[G]red of lo[C]ve
Bus station, at sun-up, she reads the ticket, in her hand
It’s a different name, for the same old town, and this ain’t the life
that they had planned
And so he tries to tell her, it won’t be like the, times before
It’s a different town, and a brand new start, and he’s gonna work a whole lot more.
Chorus
Bus station, at sun-up, another hour, left to blow
He touches her, but she’d like to leave,
and there’s no place left to go
Chorus
Well, she[Am] musta had a screw loo[F]se, in her [C]head
[Am]How could she believe all th[F]e things he [C]said
S[F]he lies to him, [C]he kisses her, g[F]ettin’ ti[G]red of lo[C]ve
Gettin’ [Am]tired of love,[F] [C] gettin’ [Am]tired of lo[F]ve
