 Dm  G  F  (3x)

[VERSE]

F         F7
 Motel alone 
F#aug 
 Decor perplexes 
Gm             Bb              F
 Ringing in my ear and now the phone 
F          F7
 In San Antone 
F#aug
 the State of Texas 
Gm              Bb            Dm
 Hearing you my dear I'm all alone 


[CHORUS]
F                      C       Dm          
 Put me in the cab I'm flying away 
     Bb      C       Am       Dm     G
 I'm glad to say I'm finally leaving here 
         F                  C       Dm
 Putting down the flaps I'm getting off 
      Bb       C         Am        Dm   G
 Just two more stops the skies are very clear 
     F              C        Dm      Bb
 I'm sitting in the back I'm flying away, 
     Am      Dm               C
 I'm flying away, I'm flying away

Dm  F  G  (3x)

[VERSE 2] - same chords
she had a dream
call it a vision 
he'd given her a little silver tool
and now it seems 
that day has risen 
I'm bringing you your supernatural jewel 

 [Chorus] 

 [Intro] Dm G F (3x)

 [Verse chords]

 [Chorus]

 [Intro] Dm G F (3x)

[VERSE 3]
The Alamo 
I've never seen it 
maybe I'll go there but I don't know 
and if I go
well I won't see it 
thousand mile stare will take home 

 [Chorus] 2 times

 [Outro] Dm  G  F (3x)  F

--3--    -3-    variation, the high F# note is taken out and a lower

--4--    -4-

Uses your fingers to pick. Form a D minor chord like above.
hold down the all the 10's with your pointer finger and the 12 with
your ring finger (or middle). Then use the pinky to hit the other 
notes while keeping this chord formation
