Intro: Am Am G Casey joins the hollow sound of silent people walking down F Em The stairway to the subway and the shadows down below Am G Following the footsteps through the neon darkened corridor F Em Am Of silent desperation, never speaking to a soul F Am The poison air he's breathing has a dirty smell of dying G Em Cause it's never seen the sunshine and it's never felt the rain Am G Casey minds the arrows and ignores the fatal echoes F Em Of the clicking of the turnstile and the rattle of the Am chains C G "Oh", she said "Casey it's been so long since I've seen you" C "Here," she said "Just a kiss to make a body smile" "See," she said "I've put on new stockings just to please G you" C "Lord," she said "Casey can you only stay a while" Instrumental: Am G C Am Am G Casey leaves the underground and stops inside the golden crown F Em For something wet to wipe away the chill that's in his bones Am G Seeing his reflection in the lives of all the lonely men F Em Am Who reach for any thing they can to keep from going home F Am Standing in the corner, Casey drinks his pint of bitter G Em Never glancing in the mirror at the people passing by Am G He stumbles as he's leaving and he wonders if the reason F Em Am Is the beer that's in his bell or the tear that's in his eye C G "Oh", she said "I suppose you seldom think about me" C "Now", she said, "Now that you've a family of your own G "Still", she said "It's so blesses good to feel your body C "Lord", she said "Casey it's a shame to be alone" Outro: Am G C [ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/j/johnny-cash/187841.html ]  |
