          C                           Am
I've been stuck inside this house too long
         C                                 G
Where my parents used to catch me sneaking out when I was young
             F              G               C       Em7     Am
From the kitchen to the hallway where I used to sing my songs
               G
When they were gone

             C                         Am
But now I've seen so many things since then
          C                            G
I've seen enemies turn lovers and then just become good friends
         F                G                     C         Em7   Am
I caught up with some old loved ones and then I just lost touch again
           G
Hey how ya been? (I've been travelin' rock n rollin' hey how you been?
           G7
I've been workin' havin' children)

         F                               G
All this chasing after sunsets, all this shootin' at the moon
       Am                                Dm
Got us drinkin' from the gutter, pickin' food out of the broom
             F                                         G
But it ain't hard to second guess yourself when you're dressin' up a wound
                  C       F  Am  G  C
Ain't that the truth

           C                      Am
Suzy's dressed up in her go out shoes
            C                            G
She takes a walk down by the water every time there's a full moon
             F              G               C       Em7      Am
She's broken every heart in town and if you haven't seen her moves
               G
You'll see 'em soon

              C                     Am
But I don't mess with her much anyhow
       C                                      G
'Cause girls like that were born to build you up then bring you down
             F                 G                  C      Em7     Am
And besides all off those old worries just don't bother me much now
            G
Cause I got new ones, tried and true ones, bills pass due ones
                      G7
Interest accrue ones, hole in my shoe ones

         F                                 G
All this up and down the highway all those wasted afternoons
       Am                                Dm
Got us askin a lot of questions, hope to get an answer soon
              F                                    G
'Cause if you try to sing too hard, you just start singin' outta tune
                   C   F  Am   G
And that's what I do  ooh ooh ooh
               C   F  Am   G
That's what I do  ooh ooh ooh



            C                         Am
So now it's grass cocaine alcohol and pills
           C                             G
They might either drag you under or help supplement your bills
          F                   G               C     Em7    Am
It just depends what you need worse be it the money or the thrills
                   G         G7
Well… I could use both      Both!

                 C                        Am
'Cause it's been taxi van airport bus and train
             C                                   G
These days I can't tell much between em they all start to feel the same
              F                G              C          Em7    Am
Just close my eyes and rest my head right up against the window pane
                 G                                G7
Like a picture frame Like a self portrait Like another self portrait!

   F                            G
So radio my folks I think we're coming in on fumes And
Am                            Dm
All this heavy cargo has just capsized our pontoon
            F                              G
So tell the kitchen tell the hallway tell all the other rooms
             C    F  Am  G
I'll see ya soo  ooh ooh oon         x4
