INTRO: C  ~  Am  F

         C                  ~
You're a working man with a welder's tan
  Am                F
A sky blue ford you bought second hand
    C                    ~
You drive on down to the factory
    Am                              F
You drive on down because it's your job you see


C                       ~
Carry your thermos underneath your arm
       Am                               F
Little coffee and bourbon will help you through the morn
          C                         ~
You crack wise with the boys, so it don't bring you down
Am                         F
Time ain't nothing but the world spinning round


CHORUS:
    G
You call it sleep
          F
There's a car out on the four lane
    G
You call it sleep
F
Rain on the window pane
G         
Call it sleep
     F
It's all the same


    C                        ~
You stop off down at the Palomino Club
    Am               F
The neon sign says, "We've Got Your Bud"
       C                         ~
It's a cinderblock building on a gravel parking lot
     Am                          F
It's Friday night, you're out to spend every cent you got


       C                      ~
So you dance the floor with a Mexican girl
          Am                     F
She's got whiskey on her breath, smoke in her curls
C                            ~
Hands holding cigarettes and faces you don't know
    Am                        F
You sit at the bar until it's time to go


CHORUS:
    G
You call it sleep
          F
There's a car out on the four lane
    G
You call it sleep
F
Rain on the window pane
G         
Call it sleep
     F
It's all the same


INSTRUMENTAL: C  ~  Am  F   C  ~  Am  F


    C                      ~
The morning air feels like mud over your eyes
    Am                      F
The sun coming up is just a sixty watt light
      C                   ~
Maybe leave this town and leave this life
Am                      F
Get in your car and you start to drive


        C                        ~
There's boarded up buildings and places you've never been
Am                          F
Cars on the interstate that never seem to end
   C                       ~
It all flies away with the wave of your hand
     Am               F
Like birds over water trying to find land


CHORUS:
    G
You call it sleep
          F
There's a car out on the four lane
    G
You call it sleep
F
Rain on the window pane
G         
Call it sleep
     F               C  ~  Am  F
It's all the same
         C                  ~
You're a working man with a welder's tan
  Am                F
A sky blue ford you bought second hand
