D A
Bm A G

D A Bm A G
Fiddle Riff during interlude and outro: D Db B A. Marked with *
Guitar chords during interlude: D A

Long Version

Bm A G
Mountain's rough this time of year
D A
Close the highway down, they don't warn the town
Bm A G
I've been fighting second gear
D A
Fifteen miles or so, trying to beat the angry snow
F#m Em
And I know every town worth passing through
D A
What good does knowing do? No-one to show it to.

D
And I've grown tired of traveling alone,
A
Tired of traveling alone,
Bm
I've grown tired of traveling alone,
A G
Won't you ride with me?
D
And I've grown tired of traveling alone,
A
Tired of traveling alone,
Bm
I've grown tired of traveling alone,
A G
Won't you ride with me?
D*
Won't you ride?
A*
Won't you ride?

Bm A G
I quit talking to myself,
D A
Listening to the radio, long long time ago
Bm A G
Damn near strangled by my appetite,
D A
Ybor city on a Friday night, couldn't even stand up right
F#m Em
So high the street girls wouldn't take my pay
D A
Said come see me on a better day, she just danced away

D
And I've grown tired of traveling alone,
A
Tired of traveling alone,
Bm
I've grown tired of traveling alone,
A G
Won't you ride with me?
D
And I've grown tired of traveling alone,
A
Tired of traveling alone,
Bm
I've grown tired of traveling alone,
A G
Won't you ride with me?
D*
Won't you ride?
A*
Won't you ride?

Bb C D
Pain in the outside lane, I'm tired of answering to myself
Bb C D
Heart, like a rebuilt part, I don't know how much its got left
A
How much its got left

Fiddle 1/2 Chorus: D A Bm G

D
And I've grown tired of traveling alone,
A
Tired of traveling alone,
Bm
I've grown tired of traveling alone,
A G
Won't you ride with me?
D
And I've grown tired of traveling alone,
A
Tired of traveling alone,
Bm
I've grown tired of traveling alone,
A G
Won't you ride with me?
D*
Won't you ride?
A*
Won't you ride?
Bm*
A*
G

Let me know if I made any lyric or chord mistakes.

Agree with Smitty, was going to post the same thing. I thought I heard "Ybor City on a Friday night..." too.

All the chords sound right. Thanks. Just getting back into playing, and this part of the msg board is awesome.
