OL' 55 TOM WAITS
Capo 4
D F#m
Well my time went so quickly, I went lickety-split-ly
G A D Dsus4 D
Out to my ol' 55
D F#m
And I pulled away slowly, feelin' so holy
G A
God knows I was feelin' alive
Chorus
D A G A
Now the sun's comin' up
D A G A
I'm ridin' with lady luck
D A G
Freeway, cars & trucks

Stars beginning to fade
A D Dsus4 D
And I leave the parade
A Bm
Just a wishin' I'd stayed a little longer
E7 A7
Oh lord, lemmetellya theres a feelin' gettin' stronger
And its 6 in the morning, gave me no warnin'
I have to be on my way
Well there's trucks all a-passin
and the lights all a-flashin'
I'm on my way home from the place
Well my time went so quickly, I went lickety-split-ly
Out to my ol' 55
And I pulled away slowly, feelin' so holy
God knows I was feelin' alive
D A G A
Now the sun's comin' up
D A G A
I'm ridin' with lady luck
D A G A
Freeway, cars & trucks ( x 4 )
