Hey, JoJo - Yeah, I know your name.

I thought I saw you jump the Utah train
Am Am F C C
but I could not say... I could not say
[Verse]

Heard you tried to keep your hat on a shelf.

Marry the woman; went off and loved someone else.

So, don't go that way... Don't go that way.

F6 F6
Oh, 'cause the story I heard is the people are bored

and the measures you take to wrestle with your Lord.

All the money you take, all the memories you spill

Will He measure your tongue? Will He measure your will? oh now

You'll write your story on firecracker paper

Am Am F C C
And disappear... Near disappear...
Am Am F C C
And disappear... Near disappear...
[Chorus]
F6 F6
Oh, because the story I heard is the people are bored
C C
and the measures you take to wrestle with your Lord.

All the measures you fake, whether you're dead or just still.
C C
Will He measure your tongue? Will He measure your will? oh now
[Outro]

One of these mornings We'll be... We'll be...

One of these mornings We'll be... We'll be home.
