Intro: A augmentedA
A augmentedA
They heard a car sputter away too soon
Me and the boys from the billiards room
E MajorE
Found a shady tree
Halfway home and going nowhere
A augmentedA
Casey was asked for his favorite joke
Fluttered away just before he spoke
E MajorE
But he came to me
Halfway home and going nowhere
D MajorD E MajorE A augmentedA E MajorE
All I can tell you is how we spent the time
D MajorD E MajorE
Friends are made in the strangest ways
A augmentedA E MajorE
And I?ll miss them by and by
A augmentedA
Late in the day and the dust kicked up
Me and the boys with the windows shut
E MajorE
And the music on
Halfway home and going nowhere
A augmentedA
Everyone?s summer of ?95
Vivid and there till the tape had died
E MajorE
On our favorite song
Halfway home and going nowhere
A augmentedA
Hitching a ride with a crusty girl
Me and the boys stole a tie dye shirt
E MajorE
And a kiss or two
Halfway home and going nowhere
A augmentedA
Casey mixed words with the mud flap guy
Smothered and bruised in the neon lights
E MajorE
And we all went down
Halfway home and going nowhere
D MajorD E MajorE A augmentedA E MajorE
All I can tell you is how we spent the time
D MajorD E MajorE
Friends are made in the strangest ways
A augmentedA E MajorE
And I?ll miss them by and by
A augmentedA
Back on our feet and the car backs in
Me and the boys at the billiards room
E MajorE
Coming back on beer
Halfway home and going nowhere
A augmentedA
Casey will crack up, a fight broke lose
I?m in the back thinking I must choose
E MajorE
But I like it here
Halfway home and going nowhere
for the ending i play this:
