Key: G
Introduction:
G C G
You could cry wolf or cry me a river
C G
Knock on my door with a message to deliver
C G F
Jameson's whiskey is hard on my liver
Em D G
Tell me somethin' I don't know
G C G
I close my eyes, asleep on a pillow
C G
When someone dies, I weep like a willow
C G F
Blow 'em a kiss and say bye-bye friend
Em D G
You're never coming back again
C
But that's alright that's OK
G
If you're still standing that's the price you pay
Em Bm
When you're gone you don't come back
C D
So you roll like a train on a one way track
G C G
I lost my way when I lost my love
C G
Couldn't make sense of the stars above
C G F
She's the little dipper that I've been thinkin' of
Em D G
And she's never comin' back again
G C G
When she said goodbye the words they came quick
C G
She spit 'em out fast and I felt so sick
C G F
Now there ain't nothin' magic in this magic trick
Em D G
Cause she's never comin' back again
C
But that's alright that's OK
G
She never really knew me anyway
Em Bm
She taped two regrets to my microphone stand
C D
Said you cant hold the hand of a rock'n'roll man
G C G
For very long its like a blonde in the bleachers
C G
A Joni Mitchell song comin' outta my speakers
C G F
Goin' to the shop for a new pair of sneakers
Em D G
Then Im gonna take a walk.
Let's rock
G C G
Well my sneakers wore out and my guitar broke
C G
Sometimes life puts a stick in your spokes
C G F
Everybody thinks that I'm makin' a joke
Em D G
But I'm tellin' it like it is
G C G
I'm a hangin' from the branches of my family tree
C G
I know I look like my daddy, daddy looks like me
C G F
Halifax Nova Scotia is the land of the free
Em D G
I don't care what the anthem says
C
Yeah that's alright that's OK
G
You'll be starin' at your phone till your hair goes grey
Em Bm
Once in a while it's bound to ring
C D
Chuck Berry sings my Ding-a-ling-a-lingggg
G C G
I lost my map when I lost my phone
C G
Gotta get on the road gotta get gone
C G F
Ain't gotta a clue how to get back home
Em D G
I guess I better ask at the bar
au revoir
