Ride
By Robert Earl Keen
Capo 2
[C]One day after [G]twenty five years
[Am]Head of service at the [F]local Sears
Helen [C]Walker put her pencil [G]down and walked a[F]way
And [C]all they found was a [G]little note
[Am]adios was al[F]l she wrote
But [C]as she left [G]someone heard her [C]say
Chorus:
[F]Gonna buy me a ticket [C]to the end of the [Am]line
Wanna [F]feel the air and [D7]breathe the country[G]side
[C]Long as those wheels keep-a-[G]rollin
[Am]I'll be satis[F]fied, gonna [C]ride, [G]ride, [C]ride.
Saturday night I was down at Joe's
He was moppin' up getting ready to close
He sat down and poured me one last brew
And he said to me with a sideways glance
If I ever get the chance
I'm gonna sell this joint and this is what I'll do
Chorus
I suppose I could stay
In this little town till my dying day
But in my heart I know I gotta go
So I'm standing at the station waitin' for the train
Don't know when I'll be back again
Mr. Engineer won't you let your whistle blow
