Verse: 1 
  Am                             Fmaj7 
I meet them in the truckstops, I meet them in the bars 
  G                                   F 
I meet them in the parking lots and I slip into their cars 
     Am                                  Fmaj7 
They come and put their money down, they come and place their bets 
  G                                F 
I swallow their indifference,but I choke on my regrets

Sometimes they ask me questions sometimes they treat me nice 
G                                F 
You don't know what you'll get until you roll the dice 
         Am                      Fmaj7 
You're a loser or a winner here, predator or prey 
    G                                F 
I'm still not sure which one I am or how I got this way 

F C And it's hard to hear the angels G Am Over the diesels? hum F C But I know they're out there singing G Dm And I'll know them when they come F C And I'll rise above the neon G Am Above this trailer park G F And fly like a truckstop angel with an arrow through my heart
INTERLUDE Am Fmaj7 Gsus4 G Am Verse: 3 Am Fmaj7 There's a big sky up above me there's a wasteland down below G F There's a long black snake of highway take you where you wanna go Am Fmaj7 One day I'm gonna leave here, gonna hit my lucky streak G F Gonna spread my gorgeous wings and fly above all this concrete
F C And it's hard to hear the angels G Am Over the diesels? hum F C But I know they're out there singing G Dm And I'll know them when they come F C And I'll rise above the neon G Am Above this trailer park G F And fly like a truckstop angel with an arrow through my heart
