Out Among The Stars

E

[Verse]
     E                             A
It's Midnight at a liquor store in Texas
E                           B
Closing time another day is done
       E                                  A
When a boy walks in the door and points a pistol
         E         B                      E
He can't find a job but Lord he's found a gun
                                        A
He pulls it off with no trace of confrontation
        E                               B
Then he lets the old man run out in the street
     E                                        A
Even though he knows they'll come with guns a blazing
  E            B                 E
already he can feel that great relief

[Chorus]
E                         D    A
Oh how many travelers get wear-y
E                                    B7
Bearing both their burdens and their scars
E                                        D A
Don't you think they'd love to start all o-ver
    E               B             E
And fly like eagles out among the stars

[Verse]
   E                           A
He pictures the arrival of the cruisers
          E                           B
Sees that old familiar anger in their eyes
   E                                        A
He knows that when they're shooting at this loser
           E             B7              E
They'll be aiming at the demons in their lives

[Chorus]
E                         D    A
Oh how many travelers get wear-y
E                                    B7
Bearing both their burdens and their scars
E                                        D A
Don't you think they'd love to start all o-ver
    E               B             E        F
And fly like eagles out among the stars   (Key Change - F Actual (Db))

[Verse]
    F                            Bb
The evening news carries all the details
   F                            C
He dies in every living room in town
    F                                Bb
And in his own a bottle is thrown in anger
        F           C                      F
And his father cries we'll never live this down

[Chorus]
F                         Eb   Bb
Oh how many travelers get wear-y
F                                    C7
Bearing both their burdens and their scars
F                                        Eb Bb
Don't you think they'd love to start all o- ver
    F               C             F
And fly like eagles out among the stars

[Outro]
    F               C             Bb     F   C F
And fly like eagles out among the stars
