[Intro]
D  C  G  D
[Verse 1]
I Amet you on a Gmidway at a fair last Dyear
And you Astood out like a Gruby in a black man's Dear
You were Cplaying on the Ghorses
You were Dplaying on the guitar Cstrings
You were Gplaying like a devil wearing Dwings
[Chorus]
Wearing Cwings, you looked so grand
Wearing GwingDs___
Do you Ctape them to your Gshoulders just to Dsing?
Can you Cfly?
I heard you can
Can you GflyD___?
Like an Ceagle, doing your Ghunting from the DskyC  G  D  
[Verse 2]
I Afollowed with the Gsideshows to another Dtown
And I Afound you in a Gtrailer on the camping Dgrounds
You were Cbetting on some Glover
You were Dshaking up the Cdice
And I Gthought I saw you cheating once or Dtwice
[Chorus]
Once or Ctwice
I heard your bid once or GtwicDe___
Were you Cwondering, was the Ggamble worth the Dprice
Pack it Cin
I heard you did
Pack it Gin_D__
Was it Chard to fold a Ghand you knew could Dwin?C  G  D  
[Verse 3]
So Alately you've been Ghiding, it was somewhere in the Dnews
And AI'm still at these Graces with my ticket stubs and my Dblues
And a Cvoice calls out the Gnumbers
And it Dsometimes mentions Cmine
And I Gfeel like I've been working overDtime
[Chorus]
OverCtime
I've lost my fire overGtimDe___
Always Cplaying one more Ghand for one more Ddime
Slowing Cdown
I'm getting tired
Slowing GdowDn___
And I Cenvy you the Gvalley that you've Dfound
'Cause I'm Cmidway down the midway
Slowing Ddown, Cdown, GdownD____
