Riff #1 e-----------7-7-7-7-5- B-5-7-7-7-5----------- This goes on for most of the song, except the chorus. A Wasn't the question you asked me A It wasn't the answer I gave E A That made me feel like I was on a train A Was a distant voice A Made me make the choice E A That I had to get the fuck out of this town D A 'Cause I got a lot of things to do D A A lot of places to go D E I've got a lot of good things coming my way E And I'm afraid to say that you're not one of them. A A E A Last time I was there You were out on the couch Pressed into ellipsal electric (?) It was the way that you smiled Made me know at once That I had to get the fuck out of this town 'Cause I've decide to make a stand And I'm not gonna take your hand I'm taking the next bus outta here, I'm gonna head for Box Elder, M.O.
