            Think I'll pack it in and buy a pick-up

            The woman I'm thinking of, she loved me all up
            D                  G
             But I'm so down today
            G              G
            She's so fine, she's in my mind.

            Can't relate to joy, he tries to speak and
            D               G
             Can't begin to say.

            D                   G
             From her big brass bed.
            G                              Am
            Now I'm running down the road  trying to stay up
            D                 G
             Somewhere in her head.
