Wichita Skyline

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                                        C
Busted flat, passed out in the back of a beat up pick up
G                                          C
Drivin' me home, but I can't be alone on a night like this
D       Em      C    D         Em     C    G                 C
Walkin' the roadside, dreamin' 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                                                 C
Rain touches down and it freezes the town and the taillights are out
D       Em      C    D         Em      C        G
Starin' at road signs, thinkin' of the times, I wanted to live

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

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

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

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