D A D A
All alone she waits at the window
D A D A
While the sun sets in the sea
Bm A G A
Is that the sound of his foot steps that echoes in the hall
Bm A G A
And then they fade away no it wasn't him after all
D A D A
He was gone in the early morning
D A D A
And he said he wouldn't be long
Bm A G A
But that was spring and now that the leaves have all turned brown
Bm A G A
She only shares her bed with the lonliness she has found
D A D A
Still she waits alone at the window
D A D A
For the one who wandered away
Bm A G A
Each day the room grows colder her tears grow harder to hold
Bm A G A
And still she saves her love for the day she knows he'll come home

Flying Burrito Brothers Tried So Hard written by Gene Clark
D
Stopped awhile this morning on my way back home
A
I had to realize this time that I'd be all alone
Em G
Cause she is moving somewhere far away not slow
D A E
And though I tried so hard to please her
D A G D
She said she really had to go
D
Even though this time it really hurts me bad
A
I've been thru similarities it's not the first break I've had
Em G
And I just can't let it bring me down too low
D A E
And though I tried so hard to please her
D A G
There must be something more to know
Bm
Never thought that we would end this way
F#m
It seemed that everything was going fine
Bm
Still with all the things that I can do or say
D E G D
It won't change the fate I know so well is mine
SOLO
D
So I'll stop and look right past the pain
A
Cause I've been in love before and I can love again
Em G
While she is moving somewhere far away not slow
D A E
And though I tried so hard to please her
D A G D
She said she really had to go

Rick Roberts Pick Me Up On Your Way Down
A
You were mine for just a while
D
Now you're puttin' on the style
E
And you've never once looked back
A
At your home across the track
A
You're the gossip of the town
D
But my heart can still be found
E
Where you tossed it on the ground
A
Pick me up on your way down
A
Pick me up on your way down
D
When you're blue and all alone
E
When their glamour starts to bore you
A
Come on back where you belong
You may be their pride and joy
D
But they'll find another toy
E
And they'll take away your crown
A
Pick me up on your way down
SOLO
A
They have changed your attitude
D
Made you haughty and so rude
E
Your new friends can take the blame
A
Underneath you're still the same
When you've learned these things are true
D
I'll be waiting here for you
E
As you tumble to the ground
A
Pick me up on your way down
A
Pick me up on your way down
D
When you're blue and all alone
E
When their glamour starts to bore you
A
Come on back where you belong
You may be their pride and joy
D
But they'll find another toy
E
And they'll take away your crown
A
Pick me up on your way down

Flying Burrito Brothers Sweet Desert Childhood by Gene Parsons
G
It was off the desert road
C G
Fourteen miles up in the canyon I was born
G
Where the rocks were piled up high
C
And when the sun went down
G
They looked like big old monsters
C
You could yell out your whole name
A7 C
And the echo would come back crystal clear
G
And the silence was so deafening
C G
I could hear it like thunder in my ears
G
I still taste the sweet cool water
C G
As it bubbled out to quench the burning sand
And the cottonwoods stood trembling
C G
As the desert wind blew soft across the land
C
Somewhere far away a coyote
A7 C
Called out his mournful ghostly song
G
And I knew that very soon
C G
Sweet desert childhood would be gone
C Bm C
Can a man ever go back home again?
C Am D C G
Can a man ever live that way again?
G
The old windmill made a groan
C G
As it turned around to face the cold of the night
G
The proof of all existence
C G
Crackled warm in the flickering firelight
C
And the stars were so perfect
A7 C
That I wondered might this all just be a dream
G C G
Could this all-alone place really be as magic as it seems?
C Am C
Can a man ever go back home again?
C Am D G
Can a man ever live that way again?

Flying Burrito Brothers To Romona written by Bob Dylan
C G
Romona come closer shut softley your watery eyes
C
The pangs of your sadness shall pass as your senses will rise
F
But the flowers of the city thou breath like yet death like the at
G
times
There's no use in trying to deal with the dying
C
Though I can not explain that in rhymes
C
Your cracked country lips I still wish to kiss
G
Have to be by the touch of your skin
C
Your magnetic movements still capture the moments I'm in
F
It grieves my heart love to see you trying to be a part of a world
G
that just don't exist
It's all just a scheme babe a vaccum of dreams that sucks you into
C
feeling like this
C
I've heard you say many times that your better than no-one
G
And no-one is better than you
If you really believe that you know you have nothing to win and
C
nothing to lose
F G
From fixtures and forces and friends your sorrow does stem
They'll hype you & type & make you feel that you got to be just like
C
them
I'd forever talk to you but soon my words would turn into a
G
meaningless ring
C
For deep in my heart there's no help I can bring
F
Everything passes everything changes just do what you think you should
G
do
C
Then someday maybe who knows baby I'll come and be crying to you
