[Verse]
D A Bm A
Small town blues Sunday afternoon
G A D A
Smells like sadness and perfume
D A Bm A G
A tear fell down from your eye, asked the Good Lord, "Why?"
A D
I didn't care where I just needed a ride
G A D
I know I'm a fool, but even I can see
G A D A
You're the kinda thing that thrives on misery
Bm A
I used to carry myself with my head held high
G E
Now I'm looking at your picture with tears in my eyes
G A D A
Avalon, baby, please make it back alive
D A Bm A
Wish I could find a way to forget it all
G A D A
Turn that clock up against the wall
D A Bm A
You were a mountain of pride when everything went wrong
G A D A
You closed your eyes and let the dominos fall
G A D
Everything always ends the same
G A D A
Fire burns bright then it fades away
Bm A
I used to stand up tall with my head held high
G E
Now I'm looking at your picture with tears in my eyes
G A D A
Avalon, baby, please make it back alive
Bm D E G
Lord, tell me what to say
Bm D E G
Love don't find a way
A
(Yeah)
G A D
Turn on the radio in that old Ford
G A D A
And then Gabriel blew his horn
Bm A
I used to carry myself with my head held high
G E
Now I'm looking at your picture with tears in my eyes
G A D A
Avalon, baby, please make it back alive
Bm A
I used to stand up tall with my head held high
G E
Now I'm looking at your picture with tears in my eyes
G A D A
Avalon, baby, please make it back alive
G A D A
Oh Avalon, baby, please make it back alive
