[Intro]
B E B E
[Verse 1]
SomedBay somebody's gonna stop and look
Or scratch their head and sG#may
'What happened to him? It's been a whEile since I heard that name'
The story gBoes
I told one last joke, bum one more smoke
And thG#men paid my tab and just dEisappeared one day
[Pre-Chorus]
I've kC#micked around this old town lEong enough to see
The oC#mne's who left to soon
And the ones who dEidn't know when to leave
[Chorus]
And when it's mBy turn to jump off this cEarousel
I'm gonna rBide on that white horse and rEun like hell
Be thG#mankful for the friends I've made
The hEungry years, the glory days
Give 'em Bone more song and lay this guitar dEown
That's how I'm going oBut
E B E
[Verse 2]
When I gBo
I'll be another page torn awG#may, a memory made
Another ghEost on music road
But I can sBay I gave it hell, I rang the bell
But I'll knG#mow when there's nEo more dreams to chase
[Chorus]
And when it's mBy turn to jump off this cEarousel
I'm gonna rBide on that white horse and rEun like hell
Be thG#mankful for the friends I've made
The hEungry years, the glory days
Give 'em Bone more song and lay this guitar dEown
That's how I'm going oG#mutE  B  F#  
That's how I'm going oG#mutE  B  F#  
And when it's mBy turn to jump off this cEarousel
I'm gonna rBide on that white horse and rEun like hell
No slG#mowing down, no looking back
Let the crEedits roll and fade to black
Give 'em oBne more song and lay this guitar dEown
Give 'em oBne more song and lay this guitar dEown
That's how I'm going oButE  
That's how I'm going oButE  
[Outro]
SomedBay somebody's gonna stop and look
Or scratch their head and sG#may
'What happened to him? It's been a whEile since I heard that name'

[Intro]

B E B E

[Verse 1]

Someday somebody's gonna stop and look

G#m

Or scratch their head and say

'What happened to him? It's been a while since I heard that name'

The story goes

I told one last joke, bum one more smoke

G#m E

And then paid my tab and just disappeared one day

[Pre-Chorus]

C#m E

I've kicked around this old town long enough to see

C#m

The one's who left to soon

And the ones who didn't know when to leave

[Chorus]

B E

And when it's my turn to jump off this carousel

B E

I'm gonna ride on that white horse and run like hell

G#m

Be thankful for the friends I've made

The hungry years, the glory days

B E

Give 'em one more song and lay this guitar down

That's how I'm going out

E B E

[Verse 2]

When I go

G#m

I'll be another page torn away, a memory made

Another ghost on music road

But I can say I gave it hell, I rang the bell

G#m E

But I'll know when there's no more dreams to chase

[Chorus]

B E

And when it's my turn to jump off this carousel

B E

I'm gonna ride on that white horse and run like hell

G#m

Be thankful for the friends I've made

The hungry years, the glory days

B E

Give 'em one more song and lay this guitar down

G#m E B F#

That's how I'm going out

G#m E B F#

That's how I'm going out

B E

And when it's my turn to jump off this carousel

B E

I'm gonna ride on that white horse and run like hell

G#m

No slowing down, no looking back

Let the credits roll and fade to black

B E

Give 'em one more song and lay this guitar down

B E

Give 'em one more song and lay this guitar down

B E

That's how I'm going out

B E

That's how I'm going out

[Outro]

Someday somebody's gonna stop and look

G#m

Or scratch their head and say

'What happened to him? It's been a while since I heard that name'
