A E
Roll bus roll, take me off.
G
A rolled sweatshirt makes the window soft.
D
If I fall asleep, don't wake me up.
A
Roll bus roll, take me up.
A E
Midnight coming on a Monday night.
G
I'm gonna go again, because I don't feel right.
D
Quickpack, knapsack, quicksnack, quicktrain.
A
42nd street, Greyhound again.
A E
Roll bus roll, take me off.
G
A rolled sweatshirt makes the window soft.
D
If I fall asleep, don't wake me up.
A
Roll bus roll, take me up.
A E
Old bodegas and old streetlights.
G
Harlem looks so warm tonight.
D
All those cheap desserts memory hurts, I could die,
A
I gotta to take 2 Tylenols and close my eyes.
A E
Roll bus roll, take me off.
G
A rolled sweatshirt makes the window soft.
D
If I fall asleep, don't wake me up.
A
Roll bus roll, take me up.
A E
I wasn't designed to move so fast.
G
I wasn't designed to have so much past.
D
And in my minds eye they all have so much fun,
A
nowhere to hide, and nowhere to run

A E
And then the sun setting on my youth makes that old shadow get taller,
G
oh but its all fine
D
as long as the bus makes the city behind me get
A
smaller and smaller.
A E
Roll bus roll, take me off.
G
A rolled sweatshirt makes the window soft.
D
If I fall asleep, don't wake me up.
A
Roll bus roll, take me up.
A E
Two weeks in England, two weeks in town.
G
Another hundred bucks of medication down.
D
Another sorry message that I need to send,
A
and another situation that I have to end.
A E
A midnight coming on a Monday night.
G
I'm gonna go again I might not be alright.
D
Its a bitter pill, and it's still the same:
A
42nd Street, Greyhound again.
A E
If I get one seat, I hope it's the window.
G
And if I get two seats I'll just lie down.
D
but if I get one seat and it's just the aisle,
A
I'll still be asleep before the hundreth mile.
A E
And then inside some tiny dream
G
and inside that somekind of me
D
and outside us rolls the bus and the time
A
will go by till inside me I am asleep.
A E
Roll bus roll, take me off.
G
A rolled sweatshirt makes the window soft.
D
If I fall asleep, don't wake me up.
A
Roll bus roll, take me up.
