caseys last ride Kris Kristofferson

1. the [C]stairway to the subway in the [B7]shadows down below

2. for something wet to wipe away the chill that's on his bone

e D

1. Following their footsteps thru the neon darkened corridor

2. Seeing his reflection in the lives of all the lonely man

1. of [C]silent desperation never [B7]speaking to a soul.

2. who reach for anything they can to keep from going home.

1. The [C]poison air he's breathing has the [G]dirty smell of dying

2. Standing in the corner Casey drinks his pint of bitter.

1. cause it's [A7]never seen the sunshine and it's [B7]never felt the rain.

2. Never glancing in the mirror at the people passing by.

e D

1. But Casey minds the arrows and ig-nores the fatal echoes

2. Then he stumbles as he's leaving and he wonders if the reason

C D e D7

1. of the clicking of the turnstile and the rattle of his chains.

2. is the beer that's in his belly or the tear that's in his eye.

1. [G]'Oh' she said 'Casey it's been so long since I've [D7]seen you.

2. 'Oh' she said 'I suppose you seldom think a-bout me

1. Here' she said 'Just a kiss to make your body [G]smile.

2. Now ' she said ' now that you've a family of your own.

1. See' she said 'I've put on new stocking just to [D7]please you

2. Still' she said 'it's so blessed good to feel your body.

1. Lord' she said 'Casey can you only stay a [G]while.'[B7]

2. Lord' she said 'Casey it's a shame to be alone.'

[A]'Oh' she said 'Casey it's been so long since I've [E7]seen you.

Here' she said 'Just a kiss to make your body [A]smile.

See' she said 'I've put on new stocking just to [E7]please you

Lord' she said 'Casey can you only stay a [A]while.'

[E7]Lord' she said 'Casey it's a shame to be [A]alone.'
