Tom: A A Asus4 A Asus4 [Verse 1] A Why don't you come home and talk to me anymore A When you get home the first thing is you shut that door A Way I know is through the look in your eyes A Well you can’t close those curtains even if you try [Chorus] A Way it goes F#m E D A I found the road in the dust to Laredo [Verse 2] A The orchids were the worst hit from the drought A The rations and the water tank were almost out A Rain came down on the town A N.C. A Just before everything living, it dried out F#m [Chorus] A Way it goes F#m E D A I found the road in the dust to Laredo F#m E D I caught the wind of the boats of my father F#m E D A I found gold in the tunnels of New York [Verse 3] A The whole town shut down early for the annual fair A The children spent their money and the farmers traded for the year A Sounds of the people in the summer haze A This old town keeps rolling as the music plays F#m [Chorus] A Way it goes F#m E D A I found the road in the dust to Laredo F#m E D I caught the wind of the boats of my father F#m E D I found gold in the tunnels of New York C D A I got the call from the heart of my mother F#m E D A F#m E D A Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay it goes F#m E D A Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay F#m E D A I found the road in the dust to Laredo
