D                    G
I live on a big blue ball
G                         D
I never did dream I would fall
D                       G
But even the day that I do
G                               D
I'll jump off and smile back at you

D                           G
We don't even know where we are
G                              D
They say that we're circling a star
D                                      G
But I'll take their word, well I don't know
G                         D
I'm dizzy so maybe that's so

SOLO

G                     D
I'm riding a big blue ball
D                           G
And never did dream I would fall
G                           D
But even the highs must lay low
D                              G
When I do fall I'll be glad to go

SOLO 2x FOR OUTRO


Explanation

s=> slide
p=> pull off

For the intro just play as shown, continue
to play the chords at that progression. 
There are two guitars, one that plays the 
solo and the other that plays the rhythm
(the chords). If you are lucky two have two
guitarists let one play the solo while the
other just plays the chords. Listen to the 
song for timing. 

This is a great song by Waylon Jennings
and came out on the movie the 
" The Executioner's Song ", with Tommy Lee
Jones. I would have to say it's one of the 
best songs I've heard from Waylon Jennings 
and was hard to find, found it on LimeWire. 
I could not find the chords or tabs to this
song anywhere, so I had to get to it and do
everything myself. I hope it's easy to
understand. If you have any suggestions,
comments, or ust want to insult me me e-mail
