LA SIm RE
It's the humming of the engines on the Greyhound bus and trains
LA SIm DO#m MI
That keeps your memory on my mind and here with me
LA SIm RE LA
Many miles have come between us, cold nights on some roadside
MI LA
Bringing back your gentle ways of loving me
LA SIm RE LA
It's the thought of how you love me, how you treat me, how you thrill
me
SIm DO#m MI
That clears my fogged-up mind to where I see
LA SIm RE LA
Some little girl as I walk by just looking at me sadly
LA MI LA
Bringing back your gentle ways of loving me
MI RE
It's just your gentle ways of loving me
MI LA
It's just your gentle ways of loving me
LA SIm RE LA
It's the happiness I've never found with other loves that bothers
SIm DO#m MI
And a mother saying how her child loves me
LA SIm RE LA
And times you never talked about those late evening hours
MI LA
Bringing back your gentle ways of loving me
MI RE
It's just your gentle ways of loving me
MI LA
It's just your gentle ways of loving me
MI RE
It's just your gentle ways of loving me
MI LA
It's just your gentle ways of loving me

The Byrds Truck Stop Girl written by Lowell George/Bill Payne
DO# SOL# DO# SOL#
His tail lights flickered as he pulled up to the truck stop
DO# FAm MIb
The same old crowd was hanging out again tonight
DO# SOL# SIbm DOm DO# MIb
He said fill up my tank while I go check my load
DO# SOL#
It feels like it's shifting all around
DO# SOL# SOL#/SOL FAm DO# SOL# MIb
He was the kind of man to do all he could above all he had integrity
DO# MIb DO# SOL# MIb DO#
But he was so young and on a ten city run in love with a truck stop
SOL#
girl
DO# SOL# DO# SOL#
As he went inside he was merrily greeted
DO# FAm MIb
By the girl with whom he was in love
DO# SOL# SIbm DOm DO# MIb
She held out a glass and said have another
DO# SOL#
This is the last time we can meet
DO# SOL# SOL#/SOL FAm
With her hair piled up high and a look in her eye
DO# SOL# MIb
That would turn any good man's blood to wine
DO# MIb DO# SOL#
All his eyes could see all his eyes could see
MIb DO# SOL#
Were the stares from all those around him
SOL#/SOL FAm DO# SOL#
He ran out to the lot and climbed into his rig
DO# SOL#
And drive off without tightening down
DO# SOL# SOL#/SOL FAm
It was a terrible thing to see what remained
DO# SOL# MIb
Of that rig that poor Danny was in
DO# MIb DO# SOL# MIb DO# SOL#
He was young and on a ten city run in love with a truck stop girl
