The Silver Moon Café

Written by Mickey Newbury

	  		The Silver Moon Café 

          C          F     C                Am      F       G   
There's a blue moon in Kentucky, there's a two lane out of town,  
          F                  C      F      C        G       C     
Where the sign reads leaving Guthrie, population one more down  

              C     F          C                 Am      F      G   
And there's a cafe out on the highway, truckers pouring coffee down 
          F              C     F        C        G       C     
There's a jukebox in the corner playing crying country sounds 

          F              C                 Am   Dm7        G 
There's a woman waiting tables, she is as busy as she can be 
            F               C   F        C  G          C     
That is the only way she is able to hold on to her sanity 

I hear a freight train off in the distance going where I do not know 
I just know it is going somewhere, that is where I want to go 
Yes, there's a blue moon in Kentucky,  I (?) out of town 
Just one stop to pick up my lady, population three more down 
Just one stop to pick up my lady, population three more down

Half key step downHalf key step down
Full key step downFull key step down
