Shreveport To La

F#m D A F#m D A

[Verse]
F#m    D            A
 Night falls like a hammer on an avil
F#m       D             A
 Stations fadin' on the radio
F#m        D               A                 Bm
 I'll keep driving through Texas and New Mexico
F#m      D         A
 Can't believe the time and miles between us
F#m  D              A
 California seems a galaxy away
F#m           D          A                       Bm
 Got half the country to think of what I want to say
                        D
Yeah travelin' all that way from Shreveport to L.A.

[Chorus]
A
 Some wish for milk and honey
E
 Some wish for pocket money
F#m                              D
 Some wish they could have their wasted years back
A
 Some wish for fortune fame
E
 Some wish for what's her name?
F#m                             D
 Some wish they could get their lives on track
   A                       E
Yeah I wish that I had you, I wish that I had you
F#m                  D
 I wished it all the way from Shreveport to L.A.

[Verse]
F#m D       A
 Sunrise is comin' up behind me
F#m      D              A
 Windows down and I can smell the heat
F#m            D         A                              Bm
 Fighting this feeling I should have made the stay back east
F#m             D             A
 And I got your picture honey in my rearview mirror now
F#m    D              A
 Tyres moanin' on the interstate
F#m             D          A                       Bm
 I got half the country to think of what I want to say
                   D
Travelin' all that way from Shreveport to L.A.

 [Chorus]
A
 Some with for milk and honey
E
 Some wish for pocket money
F#m                              D
 Some wish they could have their wasted years back
A
 Some wish for fortune fame
E
 Some wish for what's her name
F#m                             D
 Some wish they could get their lives on track
   A                       E
Yeah I wish that I had you, I wish that I had you
F#m                  D                       A
