From the recording Come On In
Lyrics
Time Burns On
Bm G
I spent a long day with the desert winds
A Bm
Sand kept blowing all around
Bm G
And I have a hard time with the desert heat
A Bm
Constant sweat upon my brow
Bm G
When the night falls, well so do I
A Bm
So please pick me up in the morning time
Bm G
I’ll waiting for you to tell me when it’s right
A Bm
To get back on my train again
A
I gotta blow out of this Texas town
G D
And back to my home
G D
Where the pace ain’t so slow
A
And time burns on
A
I gotta get back to my Brooklyn flat
G D
Where the neighbors don’t know my name
G D
And the forecast calls for rain
A
And time burns on
Where time burns on
Now I’m back out on the road again
The county roads feel lone and bare
I better flag a ride before the sun goes down
When the winds stir the cold desert air
A
I gotta blow out of this Texas town
G D
And back to my home
G D
Where the pace ain’t so slow
A
And time burns on
A
I gotta get back to my Brooklyn flat
G D
Where the neighbors don’t know my name
G D
And the forecast calls for rain
A
And time burns on
Where time burns on
Solo over verse
A
I gotta blow out of this Texas town
G D
And back to my home
G D
Where the pace ain’t so slow
A
And time burns on
A
I gotta get back to my Brooklyn flat
G D
Where the neighbors don’t know my name
G D
And the forecast calls for rain
A
And time burns on
Where time burns on
