E                   F#m  
It?s bringing me down, I'm running aground,  
D              A                      E  
Blind in the light of the interstate cars  
E            F#m  
Passing me by, the busses and semi's,  
D               A                         E  
Plunging like stones from a slingshot on mars

A                         D     C#m       Bm    A 
But I'm here by the road, bound to the load  
Bm                                          E  
That I picked up in ten thousand cafes and bars  
A                         D     C#m       Bm    A 
Alone with the rush of the drivers who won't pick me up  
Bm                                          E  
The highway, the moon, the clouds, and the stars  
  
  
D                  C#m          A  
Black throated wind, keeps on pouring in  
                                         Em        C   A  
With its words of a life where nothing is new  
D            C#m          Em         A  
Ah, mother american night, I'm lost from the light  
G   D                A  
Oh, I'm drowning in you  
  
I left St. Louis, city of blues, in the midst of a storm I'd rather forget

I tried to pretend it came to an end  
Cause you weren't the woman I once thought I'd met  
But I can't deny, that times have gone by Bm  
Where I never had doubts or thoughts of regret  
And I was a man when all this began  
Who wouldn't think twice about being there yet  
  
Black throated wind, whispering sin  
And it speaks of a life that passes like dew  
It's forced me to see that you've done better by me  
Better by me than I've done by you  
  
Now what's to be found racing around.  
You carry your pain wherever you go  
All full of the blues and trying to lose  
You ain't gonna learn what you don't wanna know  
So I give you my eyes, and all of their lies  
Please help them to learn as well as to see  
Capture a glance, and make it dance  
Of looking at you, looking at me  
  
Black throated wind, keeps on pouring in  
With its words of a lie that could almost be true  
Ah, mother american night, here comes the light  
I'm turning around, that's what I'm gonna do  
Going back home that's what I'm gonna do
