This is the pattern I use, find your own key...

Hope the spacing holds...

   
                                                                        1                                             4
I woke up this mornin' in the back of my Chevy again.
                                                                         5
As broke and alone as I think that I ever have been.


No matter how I play these big city games I can't win.
                                                                                                                           1
Goin' back where a man still has meanin' and a friend is a friend.


          1
Give me a long, slow movin' freight train.
             4                1
Don't want no fast, high flyin' airplane.
          6m                      4
Sing me a slow, lonesome old love song,
       5                      1
Before too long, I'll be long gone.


Gonna pack up my suitcase and call up a few friends I know.
And I'll saddle that Chevy and drive her 'till she just won't go.
Then I'll catch me a slow freight that's headed for God only knows.
And forget all this livin' too fast and dyin' too slow.
