Paul Simon
Two different chords here:

[Verse 1]
              G
The night was black, the roads were icy
         C                    G
Snow was falling, drifts were high
 

And I was weary, from my driving
                 D7       G
And I stopped to rest for awhile
 
I sat down at a truck stop
      C                 G
I was thinking about my past
 
 
[Chorus 1]
                                   C
I've had a long streak of that bad luck
        G            D7      G7
But I'm praying it's gone at last
 
 
[Chorus 2]
G
Gone at last, gone at last
        C             G
Gone at last, gone at last
 
                           C
I had a long streak of bad luck
      G         D       G
But I pray it's gone at last
 
Ooo,oo,oo,oo,oo,oo...Ooo, oo, oo, oo, oo
C            G       D                G
(Walk up in G)
 
[Verse 2]
 
I ain't dumb
 
I kicked around some
        C          G
I don't fall too easily
                             C
But that boy looked so dejected
        G          D    G
He just grabbed my sympathy
 
Sweet little soul now, what's your problem?
        C                 G
Tell me why you're so downcast
 
 
[Chorus 1]
                                   C
I've had a long streak of that bad luck
        G            D7      G7
But I'm praying it's gone at last
 
 
[Chorus 2]
G
Gone at last, gone at last
 
Gone at last, gone at last
        G
Gone at last, gone at last
                           C
I had a long streak of bad luck
      G         D       G
But I pray it's gone at last
 
Oo,oo,oo
 
 
[Verse 3]
 
Once in a while from out of nowhere
               C                        G
When you don't expect it, and you're unprepared
                                    C
Somebody will come and lift you higher
         G       D       G
And your burdens will be shared
 
Yes I do believe, if I hadn't met you
                 C       G
I might still be sinking fast
 
 
[Chorus 1]
                                   C
I've had a long streak of that bad luck
        G            D7      G7
But I'm praying it's gone at last
 
 
[Chorus 2]
G
Gone at last, gone at last
 
Gone at last, gone at last
        G
Gone at last, gone at last
                           C
I had a long streak of bad luck
      G         D       G
But I pray it's gone at last
 
Oo,oo,oo
