Chorus: 'Cause it's just two hours to get there babe

I can make it back a-bout an hour or so

Hold you close a-gainst my skin

I need a little warmth on a night so cold
G
Sing-ing songs that you used to sing

The one a-bout the la-dy in the long black veil

Should have seen the warn-ings signs
C
But Lord I love to hear you wail

High and lone-some, hard and strong
D
E-ven if it was a lit-tle out of tune

Hot-ter than socks on a jer-sey gi-ant
