Let those diesel engines pull me down
G C A Cadd9
Broke down man at the station house cryin' from his head to his hands
G D C G
Lord it makes me wonder what she said
Am F G
She said I have the strangest kind of innocence
Am F D
But I'm gonna ask her exactly what that means
Am F G
She said her mother likes me and I think I trust them both
G D G
And she treats me good enough for me to write this song

G C A Cadd9
Well my girl got drunk and she's talkin' to some boys from high school
G D C G
She knows how to swim but I think she wants to drown
G C A Cadd9
Ticketman said she's tryin' to make me a jealous hearted man
G D C G
Watchin' the telephone wires I nod my head
same as the above part but w/out vocals)
