Stuck in Memphis

Intro G D C G C D

Verse 1      G                    D
I’m stuck in Memphis for another night 
       C                      G
Had a note that said you just miss me 
      C                      D
I can tell its breaking your heart
                G                   D  
Can I come home early maybe catch a train
          C                     G
There’s a union pacific leaving quarter to four
      C                           D
And I hear the whistle calling my name

Chorus
        C                  D
And the road keeps getting rougher 
         G       /       Em
As we’re moving down the line
     C                    D
If I make it back home by sun up 
               G
She’ll still be mine

Verse 2
I stopped in Jackson on the way back home
I saw a friend who had a fresh bottle of wine 
And you know I never turn down a loan
I promise baby I’m coming back
Working 9 to 5 means losing my mind
And you know I gotta make some scratch

Repeat Chorus

Verse 3
I got home early but that girl was gone
She left a Dear John letter by the kitchen sink
Guess maybe I was away too long

Chorus
        C                  D
And the road keeps getting rougher 
         G       /       Em
As we’re moving down the line
     C                    D
If I make it back home by sun up
        G         /        Em
Lord If I'm back home by sun up
     C                     D
If I make it back home by sun up
                G
She'll still be mine
