Chords

[Chorus]
C        F            D7   G7           C
Boredom, hangin' by myself in a bleak motel

    Dm7      G7      C
Overnight in a small town

         F                  D7    G7                C
Boredom, my mind's countin' time, trucks go rollin' by

         Dm7       G7      C     C7
Past the pumps and highway sign
[Verse 1]
F                                     C
Never was a place that felt less like home

D7                                  G7
Never would a come here if I'd only known

            C
That it's a one-channel town and I'm all alone

  G7
I can't just sit 'n' watch my telephone

      C
Cause no one knows my number and it can't be found

            G7
And there's no good people just kickin' around

   Am                    D7
So here we are together, machines and me

  F                        G7
I feel about as local as a fish in a tree
[Chorus]
         C        F                  D7    G7                C
And this Boredom, my mind's countin' time, trucks go rollin' by

         Dm7       G7      C     C7
Past the pumps and highway sign
[Verse 2]
    F                                      C
And in this town all the other sounds have ceased

        D7    
And the Late Late Show died long ago

       G7     
With a few words from a priest
[Instrumental] C F D7 G7 C Dm7 G7 C [Chorus]
C        F            D7   G7           C
Boredom, hangin' by myself in a bleak motel

    Dm7      G7      C     Dm7  G7  C
Overnight in a small town
