80 ODD HOURS - SKYDIGGERS (from Just Over this Mountain)
(When I saw them play this, Peter Cash had his guitar capoed at the 4th fret.
When strumming the G chord, periodically lift and hammer down on the 6th
and 5th strings. The chord changes are fairly slow leaving a lot of open
strings being strummed. This is from memory, and just the acoustic so
feel free to E-mail any corrections or comments.(sans castigation please)
Have Fun.

I still got (G) 80 odd (D) hours til I m (G) home.
I ve got pictures of my girl who s at home
I ve got pictures of my girl who s all alone.
I ve drank 12 cups of coffee, read four magazines
Still got 80 odd hours til I m home
I said Mr. Bus driver could you go fast?
Cause Mr. Bus driver I m fading fast.
I ve been trying to write a letter, cause I just can t forget her
Would you tell me that we re just minutes from my home?
Well out the window I see things I ve seen before.
Stop the bus, I ll get my bags, Open the door. (STOP)
Well I don t know if I was dreamin but I heard somebody screamin
20 more hours til I m home.
Well I saw my girl she was standing in the rain
With a smile on her face, it looks the same
She kind of took my breath away, couldn t think of a thing to say
She said man, it s good to have you home
She said man, it s good to have you home
She said man, it s good to have you home.
