Intro:
3 times
Evening falls, like the full moon on the highway calls,
me home
and I'm so cold, rubbing fingers through the coffee
holds, me warm
Running 5, straight out of Portland like a steeler drives
a stake
County lines, over and over till the daylight shines,
awake
I'm alive at every hour, stoned on every day
A week without a shower and rolling in the hay
I would gladly pay the devil's due, just to get back home to
you
Cities sleep, another hundred through the valley creeps,
along
and I'm so tired, breaking circuits like the showroom
wired me wrong
Four a.m. eyes as red as fire and blood again, I've
found
Shasta's skies, as clear as love shines in my Aimee's
eyes, abound
I'm alive at every hour, stoned on every day
A week without a shower and rolling in the hay
I would gladly work a year in June, just to get back home to
you
Sing over Intro
Another stand is over, another bar, another band
So I've got to love you when I can
but, I love to love you when I can-- Hey
Mornings rise, across my city as the daylight spies, the
bay
two days down, another show, another out of town, away
That highway 5, Jim and I have traveled far and wide,
alone
but we're so high, the only thing that keeps our hearts
alive, is hom-
I'm alive at every hour, stone on every day
A week without a shower and rolling in the hay
I would gladly run around the moon, just to get back home to
you...
End on G
