VERSE 1
(Note: In some places, there s a quick open strum on the low strings transitioning
between Bm and G)
There s an empty hall
and it echos back at you
it s like an empty freight line rollin through the dead of night
no end in sight and nowhere to go
with no one to call your own,
there ain t no voice on the other end of the telephone
CHORUS
oh and I wish I could see that smile
And hold it in a frame just for a while
take me to the edge of the highway
I ll find my way back home
PLAY INTRO
VERSE 2
Well there s a flood of tears
they re just falling down like rain
they spill into your empty bourbon glass
pour it out fill it up again
until you feel no pain
wander to that bar and everybody s having fun
they don t understand
CHORUS
if I could see that smile
And hold it in a frame just for a while
take me to the edge of the highway
I ll find my way back home
INTRO/SOLO
VERSE 3
There s a mirrored wall
and it s starin back at you
it s like an empty freight line movin through the dead of night
no end in sight and nowhere to go
with no place to call your home,
there ain t no voice on the other end of the telephone
CHORUS
oh and I wish I could see that smile
And hold it in a frame just for a while
take me to the edge of the highway
I ll find my way back home
[Play INTRO four more times, end on G]
