Red Sky

Status Quo

Tom: C

Intro: C5

      C5
I was out on the highway

I was out on my feet
      F5
I was tired and hungry
      C5
I was late for the meet

        Eb5 Bb5        C5
I had a red sky behind me
          Eb5      Bb5   C5
I had the bad guys on my tail
        Eb5     Bb5       C5
I had a hundred different reasons
   Bb5     G5       Bb5 C5
To keep me falling aw---ay
        Eb5 Bb5        C5
I had a red sky behind me
         Eb5          Bb5  C5
With the stars coming into view
        Eb5          Bb5     C5
And the thought that kept me going
    G5
Was soon I'm gonna make it with you

I had the desert on both sides now
I had the lights in my eyes
Of the town I remember
Up ahead in the cold black sky

I had a red sky behind me
I had the bad guys on my tail
I had a hundred different reasons
To keep me falling away
I had a red sky behind me
With the stars coming into view
And the thought that kept me going
Was soon I'm gonna make it with you

       F5
Well I remember that old saying
          C5
'bout how good tomorrow will be
    F5
But will I be lucky to see
       G5
With a red sky's lucky for me

Solo: Same chords as verses

      Eb5          Bb5  C5
In my dreams there is a picture
   Eb5     Bb5      C5
Of me in a big gold frame
        Eb5    Bb5       C5
And the people that I've never seen
    F5             G5
Are pointing at my name

I had a red sky behind me
I had the bad guys on my tail
I had a hundred different reasons
To keep me falling away
I had a red sky behind me
With the stars coming into view
And the thought that kept me going
Was soon I'm gonna make it with you

I had a red sky behind me
With the stars coming into view
And the thought that kept me going
Was soon I'm gonna make it with you

Red sky...
Red sky...
Red sky...
