====================================================================
{t:Too Long In The Wasteland}
{st:James McMurtry}

DHear the trucks on the highway, And the tickin' of the clocks
There's a ghost of a moon in the afternoon, Bullet holes in the mailbox   G
Bullet holes in the mailbox, Keyholes in my mind   D
Bb   Too long in the wasteland, A    Too long in the wasteland
I've Dfallin' behind

DShe said won't you come see me, When the sun goes down
It'll be just like the old days, When I used to let you hang around  G
Well I don't know, I might not speak the language any more  D
Bb   Too long in the wasteland, A    Too long in the wasteland
I've Dclosed some doors


DPeople in the village, Watch the children play
At the sight of a stranger, They call the kids away   G
Just leave that man alone, I hear the mothers say   D
Bb   Too long in the wasteland, A    Too long in the wasteland
What's Dmade him that way


DI hadn't intended, To bend the rules
Wiskey dont make liers, It just makes fools   G
So I didn't mean to say it, But I meant what I said   D
Bb   Too long in the wasteland, A    Too long in the wasteland
Must have Dgone to my head

{comment: Instrumental with some vocal sounds }

DJet trails in the sunset, a long way away
cuttin' cross the horizon, At the edge of the day  G
And it calls out to me, Come fly away, I've been     D
Bb   Too long in the wasteland, A    Too long in the wasteland
I believe I'll Dhave to stay

Bb   Too long in the wasteland, A    Too long in the wasteland
I'll Dhave to stay

{comment: Final instrumental }

D There's a ghost of a moon in the afternoon
Bullet holes in the mailbox   G
Bullet holes in the mailbox   D
