           C       G
Spent over half my life
        Em        D
In this one horse town
    C         G
And I’ve been up
    Em        D
And I’ve been down
        C        Em
Seems a world of change
    Cmaj7     D
Has passed me by
    Am         Em          D
And all in the blink of an eye

          C         G
I’ve seen calendar pages
Em    D
Disappear
          C          G
There’s a train I’m missing
Em     D
Every year
               C    Em
And all those destinations
      Cmaj7 D
Won’t reappear
Am         Em       D
Where do I go from here

     G
Full moon
       Em
Shine bright
C           Em               D
Light up my way through the night

    G
The time
    Em
Has come
   C           Em       D
No more must I wander around
                C
This one horse town

             C        G
I dreamed I saw her ship

       Em   D
On Godrevy Beach
            C        G        F
I knew her time had come and gone
          C         Em
Now that life has slipped
   Cmaj7    D
Beyond her reach
Am          Em     D
She will be moving on

     G
Full moon
       Em
Shine bright
C           Em               D
Light up my way through the night

    G
The time
    Em
Has come
   C           Em       D
No more must I wander around
                C
This one horse town
