VERSE 1:
E
Found myself in a barroom
Doin' things I ought not to
                                    F#m
Watching life as it slowly passed me by

A
I was holding on to lovers

                  B7            E
And disregarding others with my lies
Living my whole life like this I guess is risky business
                                     F#m
Some folks say that I won't last too long

       A
And I can't say that I blame them
For saying what they're saying
                      B7          E
'Cause right now I'm just holding on
CHORUS:
A           B7             E
I'm just an old dancehall dreamer

A          B7          E
Living my life in the past

A              B7              E           C#m
Holding on to dreams and them slow moving trains

A                     B7         E
And I don't know how long I can last.
VERSE 2:
E
So I called out to Jesus
Said Lord I really need you
                            F#m
You've go to carry me for a while

           A
I've been running too long
Singing these old tired songs
                   B7              E
As the wheels keep pouring out the miles
Like I said I'm just a dreamer But I've gotta' keep believing
                          F#m
Someday things will go my way

          A
I'm just running from the devil
I've got one foot on the pedal
                        B7         E
While the other is laid up in the grave
REPEAT CHORUS BREAK - play CHORUS chords REPEAT CHORUS
A              B7              E           C#m
Holding on to dreams and them slow moving trains

A                     B7         E
And I don't know how long I can last.
REPEAT 1/2 INTRO
