INTRO: DGAD
D He was standing by the highway D with a sign that just said mother D when he heard a driver coming EA about a half a mile away
D so he held the sign up higher D so no decent soul could miss it D it was ten degrees or colder AD down by boulder dam that day
D he was raised up in milwaukee D though he never was that famous D he was just a road musician EA to the taverns he would go
D singing songs about the rambling D the loving girls and gambling D how the world fell on his shoulder AD back in boulder I don't know
D it was out in arizona D and he heard the lady listening D to each word that he was singing EA to each line that he would write
D so he sat down by her table D and they talked about the weather D 98.6 and rising AD down by boulder dam that night
GD and she told him she would take him ACG for a ride in the morning sun GA back in boulder he had told her ACG I don't know when I've had a better friend
D now he's traded off his martin D but his troubles are not over D his feet are almost frozen EA and the sun is sinking low
D won't you listen to me brother D if you loved your mother D please pull off on the shoulder AD if you're going milwaukee way
D it's ten degrees and getting colder AD down by boulder dam today
One of these days I'll get around to tabbing the intro.
