Almost Daylight
[Verse 1]
You're my guardrail Dwhen I'm on the road
You're my shelter from the rain and Acold
When my Dcandle is burning Glow
You're my Dbeacon, AI know where to Dgo
[Verse 2]
You're the Dplain truth when the story's told
You're the punch line to my favorite Ajoke
You're my Dbest friend, you're my leaning
Gpost
You're my Dangel Awhen I'm seeing Dghosts
[Chorus]
I'm Gstaring out the door of a motel room
Waitin' for the the sun to stare down the moon
Another Dlong night
The rateGs are low but the cost is high
If I didn't have you, I'd never get by
It's all right, it's almost Ddaylight
[Interlude]
G D G D
[Verse 3]
After DHouston, it's San Antone
Miles are lonely but I'm not Aalone
You're the Dreason I ain't turned to Gstone
I'm a Dgypsy Aon my way Dhome
[Chorus]
I'm stGaring out the door of a motel room
Waitin' for the the sun to stare down the moon
Another Dlong night
The Grates are low but the cost is high
If I didn't have you, I'd never get by
It's all right, it's almost Ddaylight
It's Gall right, it's almost Ddaylight
