Gillian Welch
Wayside, Back in Time

1   2   3 + 4
- / - - /

A D
Standing on the Corner, with a nickel or a dime
A F#m
There used to be a railcar, to take you down the line
A D
Too much beer and whiskey to ever be employed
A F#m
And when I got to Nashville, it was too much soldier’s joy
A D
Wasted on the wayside, wasted on the way
A F#m
If I don’t go tomorrow, you know I’m gone today

Chorus:
A D
Back baby, back in time
F#m E D
I wanna go back, when you were mine
A D
Back baby, back in time
F#m E D
I wanna go back, when you were mine

Bridge 1:
C#m D
Black Highway, on that Ride
F#m E D
Watching the time, fall away to the side
C#m D
Clear channel, way down low
F#m E D
Comin’ in loud, my mind won’t let go


A D
Peaches in the summertime, apples in the fall
A F#m
If I can’t have you all the time I won’t have none at all
A D
I wish I was in Frisco, in a brand new pair of shoes
A F#m
I’m sittin’ here in Nashville, with Norman’s Nashville Blues,
A D
So come on you good-time rounders, listen to my sound
A F#m
And drink a round to Nashville, before they tear it down.

REPEAT CHORUS

Bridge 2
C#m D
Hard weather, drvin’ slow
F#m E D
Buddy and the Hags, are in town for a show
C#m D
Oh, darling, songs they play
F#m E D
Are all I got left, of the love in me.

REPEAT CHORUS
