Johnny Cash - Out among the stars

It's ^GMidnight at a liquor sto^Cre in Texas ^GClosing time another day is done ^D7 When a ^Gboy walks in the door and points a ^Cpistol^A7 He can't ^Gfind a job but ^D7Lord he's found a ^Ggun

He pulls it off with no trace of confron^Ctation That he ^Glets the old man run out in the ^D7street Even ^Gthough he knows they'll come with guns a ^Cblazing^A7 al^Gready he can ^D7feel that great re^Glief

Oh how many travelers get ^Fwear-^Cy ^GBearing both their burdens and their ^D7scars ^GDon't you think they'd love to start ^Call over And ^Gfly like eagles ^D7out among the ^Gstars

He pictures the arrival of the ^Ccruisers Sees that ^Gold familiar anger in their ^D7eyes He ^Gknows that when they're shooting at this ^Closer^A7 They'll be ^Gaiming at the ^D7demons in their ^Glives

Evening news it carries all the ^Cdetails He ^Gdies in every living room in ^D7town And^G in his own a bottle's thrown^C in anger^A7 And his ^Gfather cries we'll ^D7never live this ^Gdown

Oh how many travelers get ^Fwear-^Cy ^GBearing both their burdens and their ^D7scars ^GDon't you think they'd love to start ^Call ove^A7r And ^Gfly like eagles ^D7out among the ^Gstars

And fly like eagles ^D7out among the ^Gstars
