Rough Edges

G F Cracks in your windshield, holes in your life C D And you're tryin' to get home, before it gets light G Em And your old five ton truck don't run good no more C D Barely gets up those hills with your foot to the floor G Em And your horses are tired, your excuses are weak C D And you ain't won a race since '73 G F But all through the night, the trailer just sways C G An east wind, you know always brings rain G F Out on the Skyline, the big wheels just roll C D Out past your time and through your front door G Em Lights on the highway, signs on the road C D You don't pick up your mail, you don't answer your phone G Em And your old friends are dead or they've all gone away C D Wild flowers cry over their graves G F And the paper they throw at the end of the lane C G An east wind it’s said always brings rain G F Down by the river the ole boys still ride C D And the edges are rough as suicide G Em Where the whiskey's got color and the cows feed on grass C D The windmills pump water and your checks don't go bad G Em Your blankets are dirty, your eternity frayed C D And all through the night, that trailer just sways G F So load up those cattle and move out that train C G An east wind you know always brings rain G F Cracks in your windshield, holes in your life C G And you're tryin' to get home, before it gets light
