Transcendental Meditation Blues

G F G F Em D

[Verse 1]
 G      F     Am                  D        G
In my hurry, I can ever seem to get nowhere
 G        F     Am
When I play it out
                        D         G
Close my eyes and I am halfway there
 G      F    Am                 D           G
All I carry is this remedy to seek you again
G        F              Am
So I'm sending out this signal that I'€™m traveling to
     D         G
As fast as I can


[Chorus]
Em       D       C       G
To the crowded station gate
Em         D              C          G
A month of Sundays just to make it through
Em        D            C          G
Another window in this terminal wait
C                    G               Am
There ain't no easy way to pay these dues
G               F              C         G
Save for these transcendental meditation blues

G  F  G  F Em C

[Verse 2]
 G      F     Am                                     D            G
I don't worry the old black man beside me has got a smile on his face
 G      F           Am
I know I'm weary now, I know that this old greyhound
       D               G
Bus has seen better days


[Chorus]
Em       D       C       G
Damnedest dixie highway run
Em       D       C       G
Old dead dog in these trisco shoes
Em       D       C       G
A dollar short and the same old song
C                    G               Am
There ain't no better way to send the news
G               F              C         G
So I sing these Transcendental Meditation Blues


[Solo]


[Verse 3]
Em        C         G           D
When I'm broke down are you waiting?
Em        C           G              D
Are you waiting with the porch light on
Em        C          G             D            C
Do you wonder will I always just be too long gone
Em           D            C       G
The river is wide and the valley low
Em         G          C       G
Miles to go and mountains to move


[Outro]
Em       D          C     G
Bended life for my only one
           C               G         Am     G
Through the brambles and the broken avenues
           F                C        G
For these transcendental meditation blues
