Way Out There

C                     G7
A lonely spot I know where no man will go
                                C
Where the shadows have all the room
        G7               C
I was riding free on the old S.P.
D7                 G7
Humming a southern tune
       C                       F                       C    G7     C
When a man came along, made me hush my song, kicked me off way out there

[Chorus]
F                                     C
Ee oo ee dle dee dee ho oo lay dee ee dee
G7     F#   G7                              C
Ee     oo   ee dle dee dee ho ho lay dee ee dee


[Intro]
       C                       G7                               C
Well I set down my load in the desert road, and I rested my weary legs
     G7                               C
As I watched the setting sun make the tall shadows run
D7                    G7             C                    F                      C        
Out across the barren plains. Then I hummed a tune to the rising moon; she gets lonesome 
G7      C
way out there

[Chorus]
F                                     C
Ee oo ee dle dee dee ho oo lay dee ee dee
G7     F#   G7                              C
Ee     oo   ee dle dee dee ho ho lay dee ee dee



[Verse]
       C                     G7                            C
Well I closed my eyes to the starlit skies, lost myself in dreams
      G7                            C
And I dreamed the desert sand was a milk and honey land
D7                      G7
And then I awoke with a start
            C                        F                    C         G7       C
There was a train coming back on the one-way track, gonna carry me away from here

[Chorus]
F                                     C
Ee oo ee dle dee dee ho oo lay dee ee dee
G7     F#   G7                              C
Ee     oo   ee dle dee dee ho ho lay dee ee dee



[Verse]
       C                         G7                             C
As she passed me by I caught her on the fly, climbed in an open door
  G7                        C              D7                         G7
I looked around and saw the desert ground, to the spot I would see no more
         C                        F
As I was riding away I heard that pale moon say
    C             G7                 C
"So long, pal, it sure gets lonesome here"

[Chorus]
F                                     C
Ee oo ee dle dee dee ho oo lay dee ee dee
G7     F#   G7                              C
Ee     oo   ee dle dee dee ho ho lay dee ee dee
