C majorC 
E minorEm
When you see a roadside bar
C majorC E minorEm
Or an old button down with a cigarette scar
DmDm 
G+G
Think of me babe, because that's when I'm thinking of you
C majorC E minorEm
It's not that you'll know where I'm at
C majorC E minorEm
I won't be calling up your house or nothing like that
DmDm G+G
I'm an old man now, and thinking's what I do
C majorC E minorEm
I took my car this morning, gonna get new shocks
C majorC E minorEm
I saw a woman out watering a window box
DmDm G+G
And a couple of kids I thought could have been you and me
C majorC E minorEm
Something sparked up in my brain to tell you the truth
C majorC E minorEm
I bought a box of raisins and a Baby Ruth
DmDm G+G
And sat down on the curb, twelve o'clock turned into three
DmDm G+G
I can't explain your touch by saying baby's got it in the genes
DmDm G+G
Cause girl that don't account for much but it sells a lot of magazines

C majorC E minorEm
Living without you babe, it ain't so bad
C majorC E minorEm
I've got a memory of you I didn't know I had
DmDm G+G
And it's rattling round, being called back out of the deep
C majorC E minorEm
I'll be the first one to tell you not much can last
C majorC E minorEm
And I knew that full well before you came and past
DmDm G+G
So why are you on my mind tonight when I'm trying to sleep?
DmDm G+G
I can't explain your touch by saying baby's got it in the genes

Cause girl that don't account for much but it sells a lot of magazines

C majorC E minorEm
So if you sit down heavy with your pen and ink
C majorC E minorEm
Or you're talking to yourself while you're scrubbing the sink
DmDm G+G
Then talk to me girl, cause that's when I'm talking to you
DmDm G+G
I can't explain your touch by saying baby's got it in the genes
DmDm G+G
Cause girl that don't account for much but it sells a lot of magazines
