verso 1

D                           Bm
Weeds blow tall on a broken train track
D                               Bm
Ruth B' draws were fixin' to get high
D                                                         Bm
Maybe we'll hit the bluffs and find ourselves the same old rum

verso 2

G
But everybody says this place is beautiful
A
And you'd be so crazy to say goodbye
G
But everything's the same this town is pitiful
A                                        G
And I'll be gettin' out as soon as I can fly

Life goes by on a Talihina Sky

verso 1

D                                      Bm
The hopped up boys are looking for their trouble
D                                               Bm
The knocked up girls, well they've all got their share
D                                                         Bm
Ruth seems out of her mind, swears she won't give in this time
