C            C 
They pay me not to come home.. 
E7 
Keeping me stoned.. 
  Am  Am7        D7 
I won't run away..  
   C                 C  
They say it's easy to get..  
  E7         
Stuck in this town..  
            G7 
Just like Joan.  
C                                  C7 
You know I gave it all up for the stage..  
              E7              E7   
They fill my cup up.. in the cage..  
              Dm           F             G 
It's no ones business but mine when I'm low..  
                  Dm          F             G    G6  G 
To hold yourself ups not a crime here you know.. 
                    C 
At the end of the world..  
 C            G              Am  Am7 
So I kick my feet at the lights..  
F           C        G  G6  G 
Breathe it in all night.. 
 C                    G        Am  Am7 
There's a light in a canvass tree.  
 F          C         G 
Money from home supports me..  
 C                       C  
They pay me not to come home..  
  E7 
I won't eat crow..  
Am  Am7        D7 
I'll stay away..  
    C            G             C         F 
And though all roads will not lead you home my dear.. 
 C                     Em  G         C    
All roads lead to the end.. of the world 
   C                  G                C         F 
And I'll so a little luck up into the hem of my gown.. 
C                             Em  G           C  
The only way down from the gallows.. is.. to swing  
C                G         C            F 
And I will wear boots, instead of high heels..  
C                        Em  G            C    F  C 
And the next stage i'm on.. will.. have wheels
