Waylon Jennings – New York City Rfd (Guitar)

C    G           C         G    C
From Herte, Mississippi to Tupelo

G                D         G       C
Then I caught an eastbound freight

     G        C           G     C
With sky high hopes opened eyed scopes

    G         D       G
And earth all over my face

C        G         C            G
New York City is a bad place to be

            C           G
When you're out of your head

        C    G         C   G        C   D  G
Country style, running wild country style

              C       G          C
The new wears off and time wears off

G      D                 G
And my roots are showin' through

G          C         G                C
But nobody cares about from where you came

    G             D          C
But what they can get out of you

C        G         C            G
New York City is a bad place to be

            C           G
When you're out of your head

        C    G         C   G        C   D  G
Country style, running wild country style

           C           G
What would mom and dad say

        C           G
If they saw me this way

           C        D             G
Would they pray for me? Yes, they would

    C        G           C         G
But nobody's heard about rainy day women

     C      D                   G
In a Herte, Mississippi neighborhood

C        G         C            G
New York City is a bad place to be

            C           G
When you're out of your head

        C    G         C   G        C   D  G
Country style, running wild country style

C        G         C            G
New York City is a bad place to be

            C           G
When you're out of your head

        C    G         C   G        C   D  G
Country style, running wild country style
