-Intro-
G G/F# G/E G2/D C G G2/D D(4)/F# (6x)


-Verse 1-
G G/F# G/E?? G2/D C
I am a bus driver
G?? G2/D?????? D(4)/F#?? G
and it's four in the morning
G/F#???? G/E??????? G2/D??????? C???? G?? G2/D D(4)/F# G
And I'm pressing out my clothes beside my bed
G/F#???? G/E??????? G2/D?? C? G???????? G2/D????? D(4)/F#
Fourteen years been on the job and with many miles behind
G???????? G/F#?????? G/E?? G2/D????? C???????????? G?? G2/D D(4)/F#
Still I'm up at three thirty to make sure I'm there on time
G?? G/F#???? G/E??? G2/D?? C G G2/D?????? D(4)/F# G
My car gets me along just fine to and from the station
G/F#?? G/E????? G2/D????? C???? G?? G2/D D(4)/F#
But my castle is this Houston Metro Bus
G??????? G/F#??? G/E G2/D C G
My first stop is Ashbury.
??????? G2/D??????? D(4)/F#?????? G
And the sign's been gone for years
??? G/F#??????? G/E??? G2/D??? C G???????? G2/D?????????? D(4)/F#
but all the same the people wait cause they know that I'll be there.


-Chorus-
Bb2??????????? C2?????? G?????????????? Em9
What would you say if I told you that I won't be by today?
Bb2????????? C2?? D2??????? D2(sus)/C?? D2(sus)/B
Would you say that I'm just a bus driver
? D2(sus)/Bb
and what do I know,
D2??? D2(sus)/C?? D2(sus)/B
just a bus driver
? D2(sus)/Bb
and what do I know,
D2??? D2(sus)/C?? D2(sus)/B
just a bus driver
? D2(sus)/Bb?????? D2? D2(sus)/C D2(sus)/B D/A
and what do I know?


-Verse 2-
G???????? G/F#?????? G/E????? G2/D??? C G
Well, I'm always there by five fifteen
??? G2/D??? D(4)/F#???? G????????
and lately I've been early
?????? G/F#?? G/E??????? G2/D?? C??? G??????? G2/D D(4)/F#
'cause Judith likes to be in early to the bank.
G?????????? G/F# G/E??? G2/D C G??? G2/D? D(4)/F#???? G
And she gives me conversation and a token good for riding.
G/F#?????? G/E???? G2/D? C G G2/D D(4)/F#
And she's hapyy all alone
G??????? G/F#?????? G/E????? G2/D?????? C G
And then there's Charles in retail sales;
????? G2/D????? D(4)/F#???? G
and I hope they pay him well
G/F#??????? G/E?????? G/D2????? C G G2/D D(4)/F#
for the work that young man does
G????????? G/F#????? G/E???? G2/D C G
Cause I've never seen the inside
???? G2/D???? D(4)/F# G
of a custom refrigerator
G/F#?? G/E G2/D???? C??????? G??? G2/D
but I know he's the first and last one there


-Chorus-
Bb2??????????? C2?????? G?????????????? Em9
What would you say if I told you that I won't be by today?
Bb2????????? C2?? D2??????? D2(sus)/C?? D2(sus)/B
Would you say that I'm just a bus driver
? D2(sus)/Bb
and what do I know,
D2??? D2(sus)/C?? D2(sus)/B
just a bus driver
? D2(sus)/Bb
and what do I know,
D2??? D2(sus)/C?? D2(sus)/B
just a bus driver
? D2(sus)/Bb?????? D2? D2(sus)/C D2(sus)/B D/A
and what do I know?
D2(sus)/C??? D2(sus)/C D/A
???????? And what do I know.


-Piano solo-
G G/F# G/E G2/D C G G2/D D(4)/F# (4x)


-Vesre 3-
G? G/F#????????? G/E G2/D???? C G
I wonder what they do all day,
??? G2/D???? D(4)/F#
and their respective works.
G???? G/F#?? G/E????? G2/D? C?????? G???? G2/D D(4)/F#
Suppose they give money and take money away.
G???????? G/F#? G/E???? G2/D????? C G
Still, I'm just orbiting this town
???????? G2/D?? D(4)/F# G
with the post office my sun.
G/F#??? G/E???? G2/D? C G G2/D D(4)/F#
And I'm circling again.
G??????? G/F# G/E????????? G2/D???? C G
And I wonder how this world would be
?? G2/D? D(4)/F#?? G??????? G/F#? G/E?????? G2/D? C???? G?????? G2/D D(4)/F#
if I was never here to drive this bus around from Ashbury to Main.
G????? G/F#? G/E???????? G2/D????? C G
Suppose this town would be the same
???????? G2/D??? D(4)/F#???? G
but with one bus less exhaust.
G/F#???? G/E???????? G2/D????? C G
But that bank and retail stores,
????????? G2/D?????? D(4)/F#?? Bb2
they just wouldn't be the same.
????????????? C2??????????? G?????????????????? Em9???????????????? Bb2
But what can I see from the limited confines of my bus driving seat?
??????? C2??
Only me.


D2?????????? D2(sus)/C?? D2(sus)/B
And I'm just a bus driver
??? D2(sus)/Bb
and what do I know,
D2???? D2(sus)/C? D2(sus)/B
just a bus driver
??? D2(sus)/Bb
and what do I know,
D2???? D2(sus)/C? D2(sus)/B
just a bus driver
??? D2(sus)/Bb
and what do I know,
D2???? D2(sus)/C? D2(sus)/B
just a bus driver
??? D2(sus)/Bb
and what do I know,
D2???? D2(sus)/C? D2(sus)/B
just a bus driver
??? D2(sus)/Bb
and what do I know,
D2???? D2(sus)/C? D2(sus)/B
just a bus driver
??? D2(sus)/Bb
and what do I know,
D2???? D2(sus)/C? D2(sus)/B
just a bus driver
??? D2(sus)/Bb
and what do I know,
D2???? D2(sus)/C? D2(sus)/B
just a bus driver
??? D2(sus)/Bb????????? D2
and it's time to go home.
