Em                     Cm  G
Someone said I should leave
A
Shook my head
D      Cm       G
No no no no no no

Em                   Cm  G
Tangled web that we weave
A
So I said
D       Cm  G
I will go

Em     D    A
I'm a fast man
Em     D    A
I'm a fast man, oh-oh

Chorus:
G        C                     D            Em D/F#
I go a thousand miles 'fore I get me to sleep
G                   C
You think I'm exaggerating, baby?
            D           Em D/F#
That ain't nothing to me
G           C                  D          Em D/F#
See me I'm gunning it just as fast as I can
G      D/F# Em
I'm a fast man
G      D/F# Em
I'm a fast man, oh-oh

Though I am such a fool
If I can I'll be driving to the end
Here I am in Ullapool
I haven't a plan just to turn me 'round again

I'm a fast man
I'm a fast man, oh

Chorus:
I go a thousand miles before I get me to sleep
You think I'm exaggerating baby?
That ain't nothing to me
See me, I'm gunning it just as fast as I can
I'm a fast man
I'm a fast man, oh

Am
Here I am
C
Here I am,
        G      Em   G     Am
I'm just lost again, everyday
          Cm               Em
Here I am outside Cheyenne

Trying to get back to sleep
Under the stars, scenic view after dark
Full of fret as I weep
Listening to cars as they pull in for a park

In Cheyenne
In Cheyenne, oh

Chorus:
I go a thousand miles 'fore I get me to sleep
You think I'm exaggerating, baby?
That ain't nothing to me
See me, I'm gunning it just as fast as I can
I'm a fast man
I'm a fast man, oh

Here I am
Here I am
I'm just lost again, everyday
Here I am outside Cheyenne
