OL' 55' by Tom Waits
C Em7
Well my time went so quickly I went lickety-splitly
F G C
Out to my ol' fifty-five
C Em7
As I pulled away slowly feelin' so holy
F G G7
God knows I was feelin' alive.
C Em7 F G G7
And now the sun's comin' up
C Em7 F G G7
I'm ridin' with Lady Luck
C Em7 F Em
Freeway cars and trucks
Dm G C Am
Stars beginning to fade
Dm G C Am
And I lead the parade
Dm G Am
Just a-wishin' I'd stayed a little longer
D F G7
Lord don't you know the feelin's gettin' stronger.
Six in the mornin' gave me no warnin'
I had to be on my way.
Now the cars are all passin' me, trucks are all flashin' me
I'm headed home from your place.
And now the sun's comin' up
I'm ridin' with Lady Luck
Freeway cars and trucks
Stars beginning to fade
And I lead the parade
Just a-wishin' I'd stayed a little longer
Lord don't you know the feelin's gettin' stronger.
Well my time went so quickly I went lickety-splitly
Out to my ol' fifty-five
As I pulled away slowly feelin' so holy
God knows I was feelin' alive.
C Em7 F G G7 C Em7 F G G7
And now the sun's comin' up I'm ridin' with Lady Luck
C Em7 F G G7 C Em7 F G G7
Freeway cars and trucks, Ridin' with Lady Luck
C Em7 F G G7 C Em7 F G G7
Freeway cars and trucks, Ridin' with Lady Luck
