C               E                F
Ocean of stars, why’ve i gone so far?
          C
I miss my home
                     G
I hear those engines drone
    C         
The runway is set 
      E         F                      C
Let’s move this fucking jet, i have to go
G                         C
Despite all the sleet and snow


       F                       C
Just a late night host leaving Dallas
        G                C
With a portrait done in velvet
       F                      C
Just a three night run at the palace
       C           G             C
And I never in my life felt so alone


C
I worked for the show
E                    F
Stars would come and go
              C 
I worked the lights,
                   G
I even swept some nights
     C                      E           F
but now i’m the host that’s worthy of a toast
            C         G         C
Don’t you agree, my little honeybee?
 

         F                         C
Just a late night king leaving Dallas
         G               C
With a portrait done in velvet
        F                     C
Just a three night run at The Palace
           C        G            C
I’ll be at 17th and Broadway by tonight
 

C
So far away from all these wonders
E                    F
Even as the roulette spins
                C
I was escorted seventeen miles
          G
Came upon all winds bend
         C
Even in dreams of light
                                      E              F
I can still hear her call through the tall grass and weeds
                  C                         G        C
I know that I’ll never be the same on this road to calvary


        F                       C
Just a late night host leaving Dallas
        G                C
With a portrait done in velvet
        F                      C
Just a three night run at The Palace
        C          G            C
and I never in my life felt so alone
       C           G            C
and I never in my life felt so alone
