INTRO 
Dm - Bb - Dm - Bb - Dm - Bb - C - F 
 
        F 
well my lady left her lamp light burnin 
Dm 
prayin for my safe returnin 
         Bb            C                 F 
and in a moment i'll be nothin more than gone 
          F 
where the highway churns and burns its greed 
Dm 
fulfilling every sinners need 
        Bb          C                F 
and its slowly turnin pilgrims into pawns 
 
        F 
well i'm out the door and in my truck 
       Dm 
and she wishes me the best of luck  
       Bb             C                F 
and she waves to me as i pull down the drive 
   F 
i'm swallowed up into the night 
Dm 
safe behind these dashboard lights 
     Bb             C             F 
and i thank god that somehow i am still alive 
 
Chorus: 
Dm      C               F 
and the moon its almost full tonight 
Dm        C                 F                 Bb  
and i can see for miles and miles beneath this light 
      Bb                C                 F  
and the coyotes must be crazy down in the countryside 
Dm     C              F 
and my heart it is on fire it seems 
Dm      C         F          Bb 
burning images of my old childhood dreams 
        Bb                           C 
and they swell, like an angel born in flight 
                        F 
like the moon its almost full tonight
