[Verse 1]
         A             D
I've a tale or two to tell you

         F#m                  B
But the booze just makes me slow

             A                 D
Oh, I could rack my brain remembering

        E                  F#m
But I guess maybe I'll just go

            A             D
There's a method to my madness

           F#m            B
There's a secret to this town

           A                    D
There's a reason why I'm still living here

          E                      F#m
Though I can't think of it right now
[Bridge]
E                       F#m                   A                D
I made a promise when I left for the coast, twenty long years ago

E                      F#m               A                     D   
I made a life out of chasing a ghost, twenty years takes its toll
[Chorus]
Bm                  E                     A                 D
I got along for a while, I guess, but it took everything I had

Bm                  E                         A                        D  E
I gotta find a way out of this mess, I'm in trouble and it sure looks bad

   A          D   F#m           B

[Verse 2]
          A                D
I've a thought or two to share with you

        F#m                     B
But the dope tends to cloud my mind

      A                         D
I destroyed my health searching for myself

           E                     F#m
But there ain't nothing there to find

           A             D
There's a debt or two I owe you

           F#m            B
But the gambling left me poor

       A                            D
Oh, I put up my name in the sacred game

      E                       F#m
And forgot what I was playing for
[Bridge]
E                       F#m                   A                D
I made a promise when I left for the coast, twenty long years ago

E                      F#m               A                     D   
I made a life out of chasing a ghost, twenty years takes its toll
[Chorus]
Bm                  E                     A                D
I got along for a while, I guess, but it took everything I had

Bm                   E                        A                        D  E
I gotta find a way out of this mess, I'm in trouble and it sure looks bad
[Instrumental break] A D F#m B A D E F#m A D F#m B A D E F#m [Chorus]
Bm                              E             A                        D
I gotta find a way out of this mess, I'm in trouble and it sure looks bad

Bm                              E             A                      D
I gotta find a way out of this mess, I went looking and it drove me mad

Bm                              E             A                       D
I gotta find a way out of this mess, I'm in trouble and it sure looks bad

Bm                              E             A                      D    E
I gotta find a way out of this mess, I ain't never seen you look so sad, yeah
