This Far From Memphis

D              D/F#          G
She said good- bye in Talla- hassee
D      D/F#          G
I just crawled in my truck
D      D/F#        G   D/F#
Set my mind on Mi- ami
Em                      A    D/F#
And my sights on better luck

[Chorus]
G       A               D              D/F#
Ain't a man deserves to hurt like this
G      A                D       D/F#
It's a lonely place, it sure is
G       A            Bm             A
Guess I never really knew the blues
G    A                 D       G A
Ever got this far from Memphis

[Verse]
D       D/F#               G
All the night life and the beaches
D        D/F#             G
Couldn't soothe my achin' soul
D         D/F#        G        D/F#
And how I ended up in Key West
Em                      A
God and the liquor only know

[Chorus]
G       A               D              D/F#
Ain't a man deserves to hurt like this
G      A                D       D/F#
It's a lonely place, it sure is
G       A            Bm             A
Guess I never really knew the blues
G    A                 D
Ever got this far from Memphis

[Bridge]
    Bm              G
Now I've run out of road
     Bm            G
So I guess my only hope
      F#m                    A
Is to trade this truck for a boat

[Chorus]
G       A               D              D/F#
Ain't a man deserves to hurt like this
G      A                D       D/F#
It's a lonely place, it sure is
G       A            Bm             A
Guess I never really knew the blues
G    A                 D       D/F#
Ever got this far from Memphis

[Outro]
G    A                 D       D/F#
Ever got this far from Memphis
G          A                          D
Man, I'm a long ways from Memphis --- -----
