Travis Tritt - Lonesome, On'ry, and Mean


(verse 1)
 D                       C     G              D  
On a greyhound bus, Lord I'm traveling this morning,
                G                              D  
I'm going to Shreveport and on down to New Orleans,
                    G                          D 
Been driving these highways, been doing things my way,
                     Cadd9     G         D    
It's been making me lonesome, on'ry and mean,


(verse 2)
 D                                   C    G     D
Now her hair was jet black, and her name was Codiene,
                      G                         D
Thought she was the cream of the Basin Street queens,
         G                        D    
She got tired of that smokey whine dream,
               Cadd9     G         D    
Began to feel lonesome, on'ry and mean,



(lead chords - D - C-G-D - G - D - G - D - Cadd9 - D)


(verse 3)
 D                       C         G     D   
We got together, and we cashed in our sweeps,
                G                                     D      
Gave them to a beggar who was mumbling through the streets,
              G                            D  
There's no escaping from his snowy white dreams,
              Cadd9     G          D     
Born lookin' lonesome, on'ry and mean,


(cerse 4)
 D                                       C     G     D  
Now I'm down in this valley, where the wheels turn so low,
                    G                     D
At dawn I pray, to the Lord of my soul,
                   G               D  
I say do Lord, do right by me,
                    Cadd9     G         D  - cadd9 - G - D
I'm tired of being lonesome, on'ry and mean,



(outr0 - D - C-G-D - G - D - G - D - Cadd9 - D)
