The Straight Story Lyrics & Tabs by Henning Ohlenbusch
The Straight Story
guitar chords lyrics
In the morning, in the backyard, I sit and wonder how life got so small
Is this all there is?
Through the screen door, cups and saucers are chirping like birds,
She'll be OK. I can get away for a while.
Something's nagging, something's gnawing
I gotta do something before it's too late
Gotta set things straight
I don't care how long it takes. I'll get there.
I don't mind how slow it seems. I'll get there.
Make a b-line, make a straight line, push the pedal, and watch the fields glide by
Under the great big blue sky.
I don't care how long it takes. I'll get there.
I don't mind how slow it seems. I'll get there.
Some people think I'm crazy
They want me to stay
I don't mind how slow it seems. I'll get there.
Some people think I'm crazy
They want me to stay
Other people have written me off
They can't hear what I say
If you really want to help me
I mean, if you really, really want to help me
Just get out of my way.
In the evening, I light a fire. It's a beacon for any lost souls
Trying to find their way home
I don't care how long it takes. I'll get there.
I don't mind how slow it seems. I'll get there.
Some people think I'm crazy
They want me to stay
Other people have written me off
They can't hear what I say
If you really want to help me
I mean, if you really, really want to help me
Just get out of my way.
