This is my first song. This song is tuned down a half step.So the tuning from top E down is D# G# C# F# A# D# or Eb Ab Db Gb Bb Eb. Amos does some different fingering's on the strings but here are the basics.

^CUp on Main St, they built a ^Ghighway Changed its ^Amname to Johnson Boule^Fvard Up on ^CThursday down on ^GFriday People ask^Am me why are things so ^Fhard Times been ^Chard though From ^GLaredo to San Ja^Amcinto And it&^F;#146;^Gs a long ^Cway ba^Gck home

There&#^C146;s an old trai^Gn in a stock yard It&#146^Am;s like a graveyard of th^Fings come and gone And the ^Cwind moves on a ^Ggravestone Where the ^Amnames gone And everybody ^Fknows Times been ^Chard though In ^GLaredo to San Ja^Amcinto And it&^F;#146^G;s a long^C way ba^Amck home

Some^Ftimes you&^C#146;re standin^Amg still And the wind just ^Fbeats you ^Cdown Oh and s^Amometimes it&am^Gp;#146;s just so hard to ^Dkeep your two feet right there on the ^Fground ^G

Pedal Steel Solo - Am F C 2x then Am F C D F G C

Mother&a^Cmp;#146;s faithful She goes to ^Gchurch still Prays on ^AmSunday And Mondays ^Ftoo Father's^C somewhere In the ^Gback field Thinking out ^Amloud That this ain'^Ft nothing new Times been ^Chard though From ^GLaredo to San Ja^Amcinto So why don&a^Fmp;#146;^Gt we jus^Amt go back home

F G F C G F Repeat 3x End on the C Why dont we just go back home
