Rory Gallagher - Overnight Bag

[Intro]
Am C Em Am C Em Am
C Em Am G

[Verse 1]
C G
Packed my things in an overnight bag
C G
A toothbrush and guitar, got no tail to drag
Dm Dm/C G/B Am G
Gonna leave, on the next passing breeze

[Verse 2]
C G
My heart is heavy, as a sky full of rain
C G
Mind full of notions, that I just can’t explain
Dm Dm/C G/B Am Em
The reasons why, just can’t be supplied

[Interlude]
Am C Em Am C Em Am G

[Verse 3]
C G
Trapped by a heartache, and freed by my will
C G
Sentenced to wander, so much time to kill
Dm Dm/C G/B Am G
Hear my plea, and rescue me

[Verse 4]
C G
Packed my sorrows in an overnight bag
C G
But I’ll be gone much longer than that
Dm Dm/C G/B Am
Who knows when, we’ll meet again?

[Bridge]
G Dm Am
Too many sleepless nights, put my soul on edge
G Dm Am G
And so many restless moods, lay heavy in my head

[Guitar Solo]
C G C G Dm Dm/C G/B Am G
C G C G Dm Dm/C G/B Am

[Bridge]
G Dm Am
Too many sleepless nights, put my soul on edge
G Dm Am G
And so many restless moods, lay heavy in my head

[Verse 5]
C G
Wrote down my thoughts, and I sealed them in hope
C G
Sent them to you in a blue envelope
Dm Dm/C G/B Am G
Not received, it seems to me

[Verse 6]
C G
I had some things that I wanted to say
C G
But my chance, well it just blew away
Dm Dm/C G/B Am Em
On the breeze, like some mystery

[Outro]
Am C Em C Em Am C Em Am
C Em Am C Em Am C Em Am
C Em Am C Em Am C Em Am
C Em Am
