[Verse]
E
Since it's too late to stay here
              C#m       G#m    E
Maybe I could take up a seat?
 
It's getting hard to keep walking
           C#m        G#m     E
With these phrases on repeat
                   F#m
Sure as high times in summer
               G#m          C#m    F#m
Will lead to a heartache in fall
                   A
If I get over that river, babe
                            E
I'll run blindly through it all
 
[Instrumental]
E A E
E A E
 
[Chorus]
A       E
Come on down
A       E
Come on down
A                 G#m C#m
You might be the only one
 
[Verse]
E
It was almost time for bed
      C#m        G#m                E
And I tried to keep from wondering
                                 C#m     G#m
Of something so close it was too easy to see
E                 F#m
The image of that one girl
             G#m     C#m
The one that left me gunned down
F#m            A                      E
Showed herself in to keep me company
 
E                            C#m        G#m
With a motor in my head that won't stop running
E                        C#m            G#m
A hand in my pocket that won't leave me be
E             F#m                       G#m      C#m
That storm in my belly you know it just keeps on thundering
             F#m A                     E
And it won't hush till you drift to me
 
[Chorus]
A          E
So come on down
A       E
Come on down
A                 G#m C#m
You might be the only one
A                   E
You're my good luck charm
A                    G#m     C#m
The smoke that never left my lungs
D               A
You're the only one
 
[Instrumental]
E A E

[Verse]
          G#m   F#m7    E
There's a ferry up the river
G#m7           F#m7     B  E
Taking me from here to you
 
There's a fifteen and the forty five
C#m                    G#m   E
That's all you need to know
                                       C#m        G#m
Two dollars ain't too bad when you got nowhere to go
         E       F#m                     G#m      C#m    F#m
But if I keep on thinking how the hell I got here alone
               A            E
I may never know what could be
      F#m            A                  E
And I won't find out until you drift to me

Timing on the A's and E's at the end of the lines are a bit off, but it's pretty loose timing if you listen closely to the song. Definitely a song to feel out instead of memorizing!
