          A                            Bm                D
It's the humming of the engines on the Greyhound bus and trains

A                      Bm             C#m       E
That keeps your memory on my mind and here with me

A                Bm              D                    A
Many miles have come between us, cold nights on some roadside

                          E              A
Bringing back your gentle ways of loving me

A                            Bm              D                  A
It's the thought of how you love me, how you treat me, how you thrill

                         Bm              C#m  E
That clears my fogged-up mind to where I see

      A             Bm              D            A
Some little girl as I walk by just looking at me sadly

A                         E              A
Bringing back your gentle ways of loving me

       E                              D
It's just your gentle ways of loving me

      E                              A
It's just your gentle ways of loving me

A                       Bm                D                A
It's the happiness I've never found with other loves that bothers

                    Bm                   C#m  E
And a mother saying how her child loves me

     A              Bm                  D           A
And times you never talked about those late evening hours

                          E               A
Bringing back your gentle ways of loving me

     E                               D
It's just your gentle ways of loving me

     E                               A
It's just your gentle ways of loving me

      E                              D
It's just your gentle ways of loving me

     E                               A
It's just your gentle ways of loving me

performed by the Byrds on "Dr. Byrds and Mr. Hyde" Lead Vocal: Roger McGuinn Harmony: John York Hot Guitar: Clarence White Harmonica: Gene Parsons Columbia Records 1969 The Byrds Truck Stop Girl written by Lowell George/Bill Payne

     Db           Ab             Db                 Ab
 His tail lights flickered as he pulled  up to the truck stop

    Db                 Fm          Eb
The same old crowd was hanging out again tonight

        Db         Ab           Bbm  Cm    Db       Eb
He said fill up my tank while I go   check my       load

                   Db            Ab
It feels like it's shifting all around

   Db             Ab          Ab/G   Fm          Db     Ab      Eb
He was the kind of man to  do all he could above all he had integrity

     Db        Eb            Db        Ab     Eb          Db
But  he was so young and on a ten city run in love with a truck stop

     Ab
girl

   Db         Ab         Db      Ab
As he went inside he was merrily greeted

       Db        Fm             Eb
By the girl with whom he was in love

    Db         Ab        Bbm  Cm   Db  Eb
She held out a glass and said have another

                 Db          Ab
This is the last time we can meet

        Db             Ab              Ab/G    Fm
With her hair piled up high and a look in her eye

           Db       Ab                   Eb
That would turn any good man's blood to wine

Db                 Eb  Db                 Ab
All his eyes could see all his eyes could see

         Eb          Db               Ab
Were the stares from all those around him

          Ab/G    Fm      Db              Ab
He ran out to the lot and climbed into his rig

                      Db         Ab
And drive off without tightening down

         Db       Ab           Ab/G  Fm
It was a terrible thing to see what remained

        Db            Ab        Eb
Of that rig that poor Danny was in

Db     Eb            Db        Ab     Eb         Db              Ab
He was young and on a ten city run in love with a truck stop girl
