Standard (EADGBE)

Am F

AmIf you were here in starkville

FTowny boys would love the way you stare Am

AmIf you were here in starkville

FWell the local girls they wouldn't have a prayer Am

AmWell I've spent a reckless night inside the wonder F

 of your everlasting charm Am

AmNow I'm haunted by geography and the flora F

 And the fauna of your heart Am

FAt the dawning of some road worn day G

FI call you on a whim just to say G

AmThe morning birds are singing

 But I could not Fdo them justice C

 So I hung up and I fell baGck to sleep Am

But I'm in love with my mobility

Oh sometimes this life can be a drag

Like when I notice your nobility

And how my leaving

It only held you back

But I remember one occassion

When you were drinking

And you asked me to the coast

But I was hell bent on agony back then

And so I missed the boat

At the dawning of some road worn day

I call you on a whim just to say

My regrets become distractions

And I cannot do them justice

And I hung up and I fell back to sleep

When I was down in starkville

I was hiding out inside some comfort inn

From a local gang of troubadours

When the homecoming queen

She come ridin in

(oooh)

Yeah

Yeah but I slipped out of my room into the rain

(oooh)

And I went running for my health

(oooh)

I watched those headlights turn to moonlight

And finally I was running by myself

Now its the dawning of some road worn day

And I call you on a whim just to say
