Intro:

 G                D/F#
House is gettinng quiet
 Em              D/F#   Cadd9
Someone wants to buy it
                     G         D/F#
Cardboard boxes and front door locks
          Em        D/F#       Cadd9
Happened faster than I could deny   it

Well mama's been taking it day by day
                   G        D/F#
Nothing left in a once full nest

Someone's getting buried
                                    G         D/F#
And when Ron crossed the line over age twenty nine
Em    Cadd9
I cri-ied

     G         D/F#         Em      D/F#    Cadd9
Well I'm still here by the railroad tracks
                                 G      D/F#
There's a road side bar where I play guitar
         Em       D/F#        Cadd9       Cadd9 Cadd9
And the songs we wrote on the back deck


Chorus:
    D                  Em
So why am I trying to leave this place
   Cadd9
So fast
             D
I never got better
            Cadd9
I only grew distant
               D
And never got stronger
            Cadd9
I only grew thick skin


Instrumental/Solo:
Cadd9 G  D/F#  Em  D/F#  Cadd9


Verse:
 G              D/F#
Called my older brother
    Em               D/F#        Cadd9
We haven't seen each other since Christmas

It's March now
          G      D/F#         Em
Well I'm playing Ridgewood tonight
   D/F#    Cadd9
If you're around

 G               D/F#
God it's been forever
 Em               D/F#
Glad you're doing better
       Cadd9
Since I ran you out of this town

     G             D/F#
You moved into the city
     Em                D/F#
Your new girl's mighty pretty
  Cadd9
I think she's one of us now


Pre-Chorus:
    Cadd9     D
You only stay so much
            Cadd9
But I never listen
                 D
And I would say sorry
                     Cadd9
But you know I don't give in
                    D
Well not that that matters

                   Cadd9
Driving in the old cruiser
                          D
We can pretend we're all big shots
                    Cadd9     D  G  D/F#  Em  D/F#  Cadd9
But I hope you're a looooo-seeeeeeeeeeeeeeeer

G  D/F#  Em    D/F#     Cadd9   Cadd9
        Taking off this town
G  D/F#  Em        D/F# Cadd9   Cadd9
        Don't give only Shirley
G  D/F# Em      D/F#   Cadd9
        You make me be older

G  D/F#           Em    D/F#   Cadd9
        When it's in my nature book
