Midnight Lorry

D
I walk down the road looking for my tribunal
D
Like tom and huck stumbling down the aisle of their own funeral
D                                        G
Please goddess of the road, get me on my way
D
You see my love just left me so I'm on my own
D
And my heart's banged up looking for a foster home
D
And the highway moon is getting me dizzy
G*
I see a mirage of medusa, a top of an Appaloosa
       G*             G*              G*
What I wouldn't do to be with you and your caboosa
                                          G  F
Whispering to Mr. Beck now who's the real loser


[Chorus]
F                   Am
Here come again the midnight Lorry
Bb                         F
I think I might be moving along
Gm
There's a lot of places I got to get to
C
I know you're out there but I never even met you
F              Am
Take me to the land of no worry
Bb                       Dm
And then I'll just keep playing this song
Gm                    Bb            Bb     Am       F
Mr. Driver I hear the music playin' and I see the lights
                    C
Will you throw me a ride


[Verse]
D
A pretty young thing ushers me back to the rear
D
I haven't been many places and I definitely haven't been here
D
To think I was just a lonely soul in the cold with my thumb out
G
And now I'm rolling a smoke and being told to stick my tongue out
D
We bounced and blared and so did the Lorry
D
She teased my hair and held me close with a story
D
Of rag tag visions as the moonlight poured in
G
Second star to the right and straight on til' morning


[Chorus]
F                   Am
Here come again the midnight Lorry
Bb                         F
I think I might be moving along
Gm
There's a lot of places I got to get to
C
I know you're out there but I never even met you
F              Am
Take me to the land of no worry
Bb                       Dm
And then I'll just keep playing this song
Gm                    Bb            Bb     Am       F
Mr. Driver I hear the music playin' and I see the lights
                    C
Will you throw me a ride


[Bridge]
Cm                           F
Looking at her face was like looking at the sun
Cm                                  F
She said you can't ask of everybody what you don't ask of one
Eb          Bb                      C             Gm
Either way, we got today and that's all we may be allowed
Eb    Bb     Gm         C              Ab               Bb    Eb
I know if we hold it together, there's real love we can bring about


[Chorus]
F                   Am
Here come again the midnight Lorry
Bb                         F
I think I might be moving along
Gm
There's a lot of places I got to get to
C
I know you're out there but I never even met you
F              Am
Take me to the land of no worry
Bb                       Dm
And then I'll just keep playing this song
Gm                    Bb            Bb     Am       F
Mr. Driver I hear the music playin' and I see the lights
                    C
Will you throw me a ride
