John Hiatt (born on August 20, 1952 in Indianapolis, Indiana, U.S.) is an American blues and rock guitarist, pianist, and singer-songwriter. He has been nominated for eleven Grammy Awards. Hiatt's sales have never quite matched his reputation. His songs have been covered by a wide variety of artists such as Bonnie Raitt, Ronnie Milsap, Willie Nelson, Iggy Pop, Three Dog Night, and The Neville Brothers, yet it took him thirteen years to reach the charts himself.

G I was speeding through the dark D I didn't know how far AmG/BC It can all run away with you sometimes in an empty box car G You were trying to tell me something D I wasn't listening to you AmG/B There was nothing but confusion C Every time that train come blowin' through
G Then you wrote me in a letter D I don't how your courage came AmG/B You told me what you wanted C Every word in tears and flame G How you loved me more than ever D In spite of all the hurt inside AmG/B And it cracked my heart wide open C 'til there was no place left to hide
G And I want to thank you babe D For letting me back in AmG/B I want to thank you CEmD For asking me to love you again G I want to thank you babe D For letting me back in AmG/B I want to thank you CEmD For asking me to love you again
G I'd forgotten how to be patient D I'd forgotten how to caress AmG/B I'd forgotten how to ask for help C And how to struggle for my best G I was harder than those iron wheels D Rollin' down the track AmG/B And every trip I took I never looked C To getting any feelin' back
G And I want to thank you babe D For letting me back in AmG/B I want to thank you CEmD For asking me to love you again G I want to thank you babe D For letting me back in AmG/B I want to thank you CEmD For asking me to love you again
G Then you met me at the station D With a promise and a kiss AmG/B You said my love for you will always be true C But you must remember this G Respect me and protect me D But don't expect me not to fall AmG/B And I will do the same for you C Until the final call
G And I want to thank you babe D For letting me back in AmG/B I want to thank you CEmD For asking me to love you again G I want to thank you babe D For letting me back in
AmG/B I want to thank you CEmD For asking me to love you again
G Thank you baby D For letting me back in AmG/B I want to thank you CEmD For asking me to love you again
