You've ^Gbeen long and ^Bmon the open road, ^AmYou’ve been sleepin’ in the ^Drain. ^GFrom the dirty words ^Emand muddy cells, ^AmYour clothes are smeared and ^Dstained. But ^Gthe dirty words and ^Emmuddy cells, ^AmWill soon be judged in^Dsane. So ^Gonly stop and ^Crest yourself, ^Am’Til you are off ^Dagain.

CHORUS 1:

And, ^Gtake off your ^Cthirsty boots, And ^Gstay for a^Cwhile. Your ^Gfeet are hot and ^Emweary, ^AmFrom a dusty ^Dmile. And ^Gmaybe I can ^Cmake you laugh, ^AmAnd maybe I can ^Dtry. ^GJust looking for ^Emthe evening, ^CAnd the mornin’ ^Din your ^Geye.

REFRAIN:(Acoustic lead over) |G Em|C D| VERSE 2:

Then ^Gtell me of the ^Bmones you saw, ^AmAs far as you could ^Dsee. A^Gcross the plains from ^Emfield to town, ^AmMarching to be ^Dfree. And ^Gof the rusty p^Bmrison gates, ^AmThat tumble by ^Ddegree, Like ^Glaughing children, ^Cone by one, ^AmWho look like you and ^Dme.

CHORUS 2:

Then, ^Gtake off your ^Cthirsty boots, And ^Gstay for a^Cwhile. Your ^Gfeet are hot and ^Emweary, ^AmFrom a dusty ^Dmile. And ^Gmaybe I can ^Cmake you laugh, ^AmAnd maybe I can ^Dtry. ^GJust looking for the ^Emevening, ^AmAnd the mornin’ ^Din your ^Geye.

INSTRUMENTAL:(Acoustic lead, piano and harmonica over) |G Em|Am D| x4 VERSE 3:

I ^Gknow that you’re ^Bmno stranger, ^AmDown the crooked rainbow ^Dtrail. From ^Gdancing cliffheads, ^Emshattered sills, ^AmOf slandered shackled ^Djails. But ^Gthe voices drift up ^Bmfrom below, ^AmAs his walls are being ^Dscaled. ^GAnd all of this, ^EmAnd more my friend, ^AmYour song shall not be ^Dfailed.

CHORUS 3:

Then, ^Gtake off your ^Emthirsty boots, And ^Amstay for a^Dwhile. Your ^Gfeet are hot and ^Emweary, ^AmFrom a dusty ^Dmile. And ^Gmaybe I can ^Cmake you laugh, ^AmAnd maybe I can ^Dtry. ^GJust looking for the ^Emevening, ^AmAnd the mornin’ ^Din your ^Geye.
