[Verse]
          Em      Em9 Em      C  C9 C
He wasn't murdered by love or loneliness
   G                 D
He walked out on his own
         Em  Em9 Em            C   C9 C
It was a holiday night, he was out of state
  G                  D
Before she knew he'd gone

[Bridge]
       C                    Em
Leaving just enough for the weekly rent
D
 Plus a little change
       C                   Em
Taking the long way to any place
D              C
 In the frozen rain

[Verse]
         Em  Em9  Em          C  C9  C
It was a roadside stop with a broken name
  G                  D
And he sat there all alone
       Em  Em9 Em        C   C9  C
In the used-up mirror he saw his ghost
 G                  D
Come slowly walking over

[Bridge]
        C               Em         D
He said, "Where are you goin', son? I'll go too
       C          Em
Listen, don't you think I know
D                 C
 What you've been doin'?"

D   C   D   C   D

[Verse]
          Em      Em9 Em      C  C9    C
He wasn't murdered or lost or ransomed off
   G                 D
He walked out on his own
       Em  Em9  Em      C   C9     C
With a rain to wash his conscience off
       G               D
And an idea where he's goin'

[Bridge]
        C              Em
Looking both ways on a one-way street
D
 But the light won't change
        C             Em
Finding just enough behind the seat
D                     C
To make her telephone ring
