[Verse 1]
Bm                      A                E
  My head's hangin' low and my shoes are worn
             Bm               A                       E
I've had the blues in my soul since the day I was born
    Bm                      A                      E
The devil's been on my back now for quite some time
                     Bm
Yeah, it's just been me and him,
               A
and the whispering wind
And it's,
E
 it's time to find a little peace of mind

[Chorus]
       Bm
I said "Hey mister, hey,
         G
you're going my way
       E                       A
I could sure use a ride out of this place
Bm
Hey mister, hey,
        G                     E
it's coming around and I could sure use a ride out of this
town
              Bm              G
'Cause it's a long way down to the bottom
      E                     A
It's a long way to get back on top."
       Bm
I said "Hey mister, hey,
         G
you're going my way
       E
I could sure use a ride out of this place.

[Verse 2]
Bm
  I've been lookin' for a sign,
A             E
lookin' for a friend
                         Bm                          A
I've been lookin' at the same dead eyes in the mirror
           E
Watchin' myself go down a dead end
Bm                              A                        E
  I've been waitin' on a prayer that never made it to God
Yeah,
          Bm                            A
it's like going through hell on a Sunday
         E
But then going through hell's about all I got

[Chorus]
       Bm
I said "Hey mister, hey,
         G
you're going my way
       E                       A
I could sure use a ride out of this place
Bm
Hey mister, hey,
        G                     E
it's coming around and I could sure use a ride out of this
town
              Bm              G
'Cause it's a long way down to the bottom
      E                     A
It's a long way to get back on top."
       Bm
I said "Hey mister, hey,
         G
you're going my way
       E
I could sure use a ride out of this place.
