Em
I can't take this kinda pressure
G - F#m -
I must confess one more dusty road
Em - Dsus2
Would be just a road too long
G - - Em
Worthless...
Em
I just can't, I just can't
I just can't seem to get started!
G - F#m -
Don't have the heart to live in the fast lane
Em - Dsus2
All that has passed and gone
G - - A
Worthless!

There ain't nothing you can do about it

Worthless!
Pardon me while I panic!

Worthless! Worthless! Worthless!

Every truck stop from Butte to MO

Motown to Old Alabama

From Texarkana and east of Savanna from Tampa to Old Kokomo

I once ran the Indy 500
G - F#m -
I must confess I'm impressed how I did
Em - Dsus2
And I wonder how close that I came
Em
Now I get a sinking sensation
G - F#m - Em -
I was the top of the line, out of site out of mind
Dsus2
So much for fortune and fame

Once took a Texan to a wedding
Once took a Texan to a wedding
A# - Am -
He kept forgetting, his loneliness letting
Gm - F
His thoughts turn to home and we turned
Gm
I took a man to a graveyard
A# - Am -
I beg your pardon, it's quite hard enough
Gm - F
Just living with the stuff I have learned
Am - - A#
Worthless!

Once drove a surfer to sunset

There were bikinis and buns filled with weenies

Believe me, just couldn't forget
Em -
Pico, lets go up to Zuma
Gm -
Pico, lets go up to Zuma

Get up and go hit the highway

I worked on a reservation

G - F#m - Em - Dsus2
Who would believe they would love me and leave on a bus back to old Santa Fe?

Once in an Indian nation

Who was happy to lie there and say
Em - - Dm - - Am
"You're worthless"
