[Verse 1]
      D                                     G
	It's midnight at a liquor store in Texas

          D                          A
	Closing time another day is done

                D                                  G     E
	When a boy walks in the door and points a pistol

                  D        A                   D
	He can't find a job,Lord he's found a gun
[Verse 2]
      D                                          G
	He pulls it off with no trace of confrontation

                 D                                 A
	Then he lets the old man run out in the street

               D                                        G     E
	Even though he knows they'll come with guns a blazing

                D           A                 D
	And already he can feel that great relief
[Chorus]
      D                            C  G
	Oh how many travelers get weary

         D                                     A
	Bearing both their burdens and their scars

         D                                       C  G
	Don't you think they'd love to stop complaining

          D              A              D
	Fly like eagles out among the stars
[Verse 3]
      D                                  G
	He pictures the arrival of the cruisers

                  D                           A
	Sees that old familiar anger in their eyes

             D                                       G    E
	He knows that when they're shooting at this loser

                   D              A               D
	They'll be aiming at the demons in their lives
[Verse 4]
      D                                      G
	The evening news it carries all the details

            D                            A
	He dies in every living room in town

                D                        G     E
	At his home a bottle's thrown in anger

                 D          A                       D
	And his father cries we'll never live this down
[Chorus]
      D                            C  G
	Oh how many travelers get weary

         D                                     A
	Bearing both their burdens and their scars

         D                                       C G
	Don't you think they'd love to start all over

              D              A              D
	And fly like eagles out among the stars

                         A              G
	Fly like eagles out among the stars
