Wichita Skyline

E|--------------------------------

E|-------------------------| 

Standard Tuning

In the chorus, there is a descending
 chord progression -
I cheat on the Bm like this:

     C   Bm  A   G
E|---------------3---| 
B|---1-------2---3---| 
G|---0-------2---0---| 
D|---2---0---2---0---| 
A|---3---2-------2---| 
E|---------------3---| 

Where I have the G C chords close 
together in the second chorus:
play the G for just one beat, then 
back to the C

[Intro]
G    C
G    C

[Verse 1]
G                                 
Busted flat, passed out in the 
       C
back of a beat up pick up
G                             
Drivin' me home, but I can't be 
             C
alone on a night like this
D       Em      C    D         
Walkin' the roadside, dreamin' 
Em     C    G                 C
of a life I wanted to live

[Verse 2]
G
The cold wind blows from who the 
hell knows
        C
And the liquor stores are closed
G                                 
Rain touches down and it freezes 
                C
the town and the taillights are out
D       Em      C    D         
Starin' at road signs, thinkin'
Em      C        G
 of the times, I wanted to live

[Chorus 1]
C                D
Wichita Skyline, deliver me home
                Em              D 
Be the light of my eyes, 'cause my
                  C Bm A G    C
 life, ain't worth living

[Verse 3]
G                                 
The sun beats down on the bad side
                     C
 of town and there's too many cops 
around
G                              
Fireworks fly like the fourth of 
                C
July 'til the factories close down
D       Em      C    D         
Walkin' the roadside, dreamin' 
Em     C    G
of a life, I just can't forget

[Chorus 2]
C                D
Wichita Skyline, deliver me home
                Em              D 
Be the light of my eyes, 'cause my
                  C Bm A G
 life, ain't worth living
C               G C             
Wichita Skyline, I've got a 
                        D
black eye that matches the other
        G                       
And the sun that shines when the 
 C         G C
winter is over
C                  D             
I can't see eye to eye with 
     Em
anyone at all

C                                  
Wichita Skyline (deliver me home),

deliver me home
                C
Be the light in my eyes
Wichita Skyline (deliver me home), 
D
deliver me home
                C
Be the light in my eyes
Wichita Skyline (deliver me home), 
D
deliver me home
