Standard Tuning
[Intro]
[Verse]
Watching paint
ed lines fly b
y Driving west
ward late at n
ight
And every one
I get to Is an
other left beh
ind
Until I watch
the night grow
early Right b
efore my weary
eyes
That sun must
be hungover Ca
use it's strug
gling to rise
Luck has a way
of changing B
ut I don't hav
e time to wait
So I dream abo
ut the cold an
d that old Del
ta 88
Some faces hav
e a history So
me just have a
past
Where you happ
en to pull ove
r When you're
running out of
gas
This place was
founded where
an angel Was
said to have s
et down
Put they got h
im tarred and
feathered And
they run him o
ut of town
I got half a m
ind to chase h
im And the oth
er half to sta
y
While I dream
about the cold
and that old
Delta 88
[Bridge]
Where can I fi
nd some piece
of earth
Some stone unt
urned not burn
ed down
I keep looking
around but al
l I see
Are strip mall
s and worn out
memories
I keep a pictu
re of a river
By what used t
o be a store
And a broken d
own theater Th
at no one goes
to anymore
Since the canv
assing of snow
Was drawn int
o the flood
And our waterc
olor ghost tow
n Was left pai
nted in mud
I got a pocket
full of memor
iesIt's got me
limping from
the weight
While I dream
about the cold
and that old
Delta 88
