Intro:
C G F Am G

Verse 1:
C
Remember when we’d sit around an ol’ fire
          G
And you’d get your guitar out to sing
          F
We’d sing CCR, Jersey Giant,
                              Am
Don’t Look Back in Anger, Or anything by
       G
Bruce Springsteen
C
Back when ol’ Anna would throw her ol’
         G
hands up with her face framed by the fire
    F
And it got so late, we’d take hits from a
               Am
joint mistake shooting stars for telephone
G
wires
C
and now I’ve grown partial to havin’ a
              G
heart full of memories I cannot bear
    F
The girls in summer clothes and Lord
                            Am
knows the soft scent of her long, dark,
             G
river washed hair

C G F Am G

Verse 2:
C
And I think I might pack a bag in the night
     G
Find me some small town out west
          F
Start over, find closure and just say
                     Am
“I’m sorry” To that sweet girl who tore
          G
off that dress
C
The way the moon’s crestin’ over green
                      G
pines restin’ next to that coastline I rode
F
It made me think of you in the dirt out in
             Am                       G
Santa Fe and all of the good times I stole
C
Remember when Shawn was drunk quotin’
         G
Kerouac remember when Steve quit the band
F
I don’t know nothing but if I knew something
    Am                          G
I’d know that I’ve helped all I can

[Break]
C G F Am G

Verse 3:
C
I think it’s about time that I sever it
G
You’d never look on me to your desperate
    F
And I’ve never been more worried about
    Am                        G
The state of the world, angry girl
C
The time to stay’s passin’, I think of
                G
my dad when the army and navy game’s on
    F
And every night, I wonder if he’s proud
                     Am
of the man who threw fists that late night
        G
in his lawn
C
I don’t like being famous, they tame you
                   G
then paint you as someone that you’ve never
              F
been and I’m pissed my mama can’t see me
                 Am                G
singin’ for this crowd out in deep Michigan
C
And I’ll leave you with somethin’, don’t
                      G
leave with nothin’ be safe on your long
                      F
drive home there ain’t nothing in this poor
                Am               G
man’s apartment apart from bein’ alone
C
And I wish you were around this time of year
G
Every time they drop that ball
         F
Drinkin’ parking lot beers while the fire
                Am
disappears Over Times Square and western
G
home
