[Chorus]
C F D7 G7 C
Boredom, hangin' by myself in a bleak motel
Dm7 G7 C
Overnight in a small town
F D7 G7 C
Boredom, my mind's countin' time, trucks go rollin' by
Dm7 G7 C C7
Past the pumps and highway sign
[Verse 1]
F C
Never was a place that felt less like home
D7 G7
Never would a come here if I'd only known
C
That it's a one-channel town and I'm all alone
G7
I can't just sit 'n' watch my telephone
C
Cause no one knows my number and it can't be found
G7
And there's no good people just kickin' around
Am D7
So here we are together, machines and me
F G7
I feel about as local as a fish in a tree
[Chorus]
C F D7 G7 C
And this Boredom, my mind's countin' time, trucks go rollin' by
Dm7 G7 C C7
Past the pumps and highway sign
[Verse 2]
F C
And in this town all the other sounds have ceased
D7
And the Late Late Show died long ago
G7
With a few words from a priest
[Instrumental]
C F D7 G7 C Dm7 G7 C
[Chorus]
C F D7 G7 C
Boredom, hangin' by myself in a bleak motel
Dm7 G7 C Dm7 G7 C
Overnight in a small town
