Verse 1: 
F                                   Bb
It's midnight at a liquor store in Texas. 
   F                                C7
Beneath the neon, close up's just begun.  
       F 	  	                           Bb    G
When a boy walks in the door and points a pistol. 
         F               C7                 F
He can't find a job, but man, he's found a gun. 
 
Verse 2: 
F                                           Bb
But a change of heart before there's confrontation. 
          F                                 C7
Let's the old man live and run out in the street. 
       F                                          Bb     G
But he knows that soon they'll come with guns a blazing. 
      F            C7             F
And already he can feel a great relief. 
                  

Chorus -------------
F                         Bb
Oh how many travlers get weary, 
F                                     C7
Bearing both their burdens and their scars, 
F                                      Bb        G
Don't you think they'd love to stop complaining, 
    F               C7             F
and fly like eagles out among the stars.

He pictures the arrival of the cruisers. 
          F                           C7
Sees that old familiar anger in their eyes. 
   F                                        Bb     G
He knows that when they're shooting at this loser, 
           F              C7                F
They'll be aiming at the deamons in their lives.

Bearing both their burdens and their scars, 
F                                      Bb 	  	 G
Don't you think they'd love to stop complaining, 
    F               C7             F
and fly like eagles out among the stars.

The evening news it carries all the details.

He dies in every living room in town. 
    F                                Bb     G
And in his home a bottle's thrown in anger. 
        F                    C7               F
And his father cries, "We'll never live this down."

Bearing both their burdens and their scars,
