Rest Awhile

     E                A
Does anyone know of a girl who might like
  B                  E
A tired old boy on a rusty old bike
         E                        A
Who just pulled in today from the Florida Glades
    B                                    E
And just got to stop and rest awhile and rest awhile

     E                  A
Does anyone know of someone who can use
  B                           E
A hard working fool who don't ever touch booze
           E         A
Who's only vice is a roll of a dice
    B                                         E
And he's just got to stop and rest awhile and rest awhile

A                 E
Easy there lady I don't want no trouble
     B                    E
I'll pay for my chili and leave
A                 E
Easy there mister I got the money
    F#                            B
And if I was you I'd let go of my sleeve

     E                A
Does anyone know of a place I can sleep
      B                           E
Where I won't hear the cry of the wind as she weeps
      E                           A
For a poor wandering soul who got no place to go
    B                                    E
And just got to stop and rest awhile and rest awhile

A               E
No fellers, you can't have a ride
      B                            E
Cause my bike and my girls I don't share
A             E
Hey, Sheriff, thank you for stoppin'
    F#                                     B
And being concerned 'bout the length of my hair

    E                A
Can anyone lend me a half tank of gas
    B                             E
And I guess that a smile would be too much to ask
      E                                  A
Cause your warm friendly town don't want my kind around
    B                                        E
And I guess I can't stop and rest awhile and rest awhile

A               E
Hello mama your boy's comin' home
      B                             E
Cause my bike and my dreams all got wrecked
A               E
No, mama, don't hang up the phone
    F#                           B
I'm sorry that I had to call you collect

    E                A
Can anyone lend me a half tank of gas
    B                             E
And I guess that a smile would be too much to ask
     E                             A
your warm friendly town don't want my kind around
    B                                        E
And I guess I won't stop and rest awhile and rest awhile
