Holed Up Mason City

(início)

INTRO: C  F G C   Am  F G C
I'm holed up in Mason City
F               G        C
Waiting for the roads to clear
Second day of a blizzard
    Am                G
And winter isn't even here
            F
I'm heading back on I-35
   Am                               C
At this point, I just wanna make it home alive
I'm holed up in Mason City
    G                      C
The weather isn't pretty tonight
I'm holed up in Mason City
F              G       C
Waiting for my luck to change
Thought I'd be home already
       Am                  G
But my plans are being rearranged
           F
First day, snow flew down from the sky
         Am                           C
Now it's crossing the fields and it's drifting high
Sudden ice upon the highway
    G                 C
Car is blowing sideways and I
             Am
Believe I'll seek some shelter
F            G           C
Faces Helter Skelter and wide
        Am
I moved over to the rumble step
    G                        F
I'm driving with my flashers on
      Am
Every tenth of a mile
    G                       F    G
I'm slipping ever closer to gone
         Am      G         F     G
Ice-blue highway, blue sky byway
         Am      G        F        G
Ice-blue highway, blowing sideways
INSTRUMENTAL: C   F G C    Am  G
       C                           F                 G   C
At the Big Bopper diner, there's a bunch of stranded refugees
                         Am                    G
And nobody's talking, or looking very eager to please
     F
In a booth I saw Buddy Holly's ghost
Am                     C
Writing to the girl he loved the most
I'm holed up in Mason City
    G                    C
The future isn't ready tonight
           Am
I'm holing up in Mason City
    F            G       C
The future isn't ready tonight
