Out Among the Stars Waylon Jennings
Capo on the 1st fret.
Verse 1:
[D] It's midnight at a liquor store in [G]Texas
C[D]losing time another day is [A]done
When a [D]boy walks in the door and points a [G]pistol[E]
He can't [D]find a jo[A]b,Lord he's found a [D]gun
Verse 2:
[D] He pulls it off with no trace of confron[G]tation
Then he [D]lets the old man run out in the st[A]reet
Even t[D]hough he knows they'll come with guns a b[G]lazing[E]
And alr[D]eady he can [A]feel that great re[D]lief
Chorus:
[D] Oh how many travelers get [C]wea[G]ry
[D]Bearing both their burdens and their s[A]cars
[D]Don't you think they'd love to stop comp[C]lai[G]ning
F[D]ly like eagles [A]out among the s[D]tars
Verse 3:
[D] He pictures the arrival of the c[G]ruisers
Sees that[D] old familiar anger in their[A] eyes
He k[D]nows that when they're shooting at this [G]loser[E]
They'll be[D] aiming at the [A]demons in their [D]lives
Chorus.
Verse 4:
[D] The evening news it carries all the [G]details
He [D]dies in every living room in [A]town
At his [D]home a bottle's thrown in[G] anger[E]
And his [D]father crie[A]s we'll never live this [D]down
Chorus bis:
[D] Oh how many travelers get [C]wea[G]ry
[D]Bearing both their burdens and their s[A]cars
[D]Don't you think they'd love to start all[C] o[G]ver
And f[D]ly like eagles [A]out among the s[D]tars
Fly like eagles [A]out among the s[G]tars
