[F] [C]
[Bb] [F] [Bb]
[Gm] [C] [F]
[C] [F] Well I'm living [C] near the city [Bb] on the south side at [F] the shore
And [Bb] the folks [F] around here think I'm not just [Gm] right
[C] But [F] with sleeping [C] in the morning when they're [Bb] halfway through the [F] day
[Bb] And playing [C] music halfway through [F] the night
[C] [F] And the postman [C] thinks I'm crazy [Bb] cause I don't pick up [F] my mail
[Bb] Cause I know it's [F] gonna be the same [Gm] old story
[F] [C] Final [F]
notice says and [C] traffic [Bb] tickets lying [F] in the corner
The [Bb] words are different but I [C] still know what they [F] mean
[Gm] [F] [Bb] So I think I'll sweep the [F] dust off, I [Cm] might [Gm] even cut [F] the grass
[Bb] And I'll put away [F] my Springsteen and [Gm] Tom Wheat
[C]
[F] Put a notice in the [Em] papers and if [Bb] they give me what [C] I'm asking
[Bb] I'll fill the cart and [F] don't [C] forget to close [F] the gates
[C] [F] Johnny [C] said I'm up tonight [Dm] cause [Bb] tonight I'm [F] coming home
[Bb] Call the boys and try to [F] find them, [Gm] ask them if they'll come [C] around
[F] Cause my eyes are [C] getting tired and [Bb] my ears are getting [F]
sore
[Bb] Johnny [F] said I'm up tonight and [Gm] I'm not [C] going away [F] no more
[C] [Bb]
[F] [Bb] [F]
[C] [F]
[C] [F] It was easy [C] when we started, all [Bb] we had were cheap [F] guitars
[Bb] And the times we had [F] just won't come round [Gm] again
[C] We [F] had music in [C] the evenings and [Bb] if nobody [F] was listening
[Bb] Nobody cared and so [F] we'd [C] pile into the [F] cars
[C] [F]
Swimming in [C] the sea at night [Bb] and listening to [F] the radio
[Gm] And working [F] in the daytime [Gm] if you wanted to
[F] [C] But
[F] now those [C] days are dead and gone [Dm] and [Bb] everybody's [F] scattered round
[Bb] But maybe [C] there'll be someone left [F] to clean
[Gm] [Am] [Bb] So I think I'll sweep the [F] dust off, I [Gm] might [C] even cut [F] the grass
[Bb] And I'll put away my [F] Springsteen and [Gm] Tom Wheat
[C] Put [F] a notice in the [Em] papers and if [Bb] they give me [F] what I'm asking
I'll [Bb] fill the cart and [C] don't forget to close [F] the gates
[C] [F] Johnny [C] said I'm up tonight, [Bb] just tonight I'm [F] coming home
[Bb] Call the boys and try [F] to find them, [Gm] ask them if they'll come [C] around
[F] Cause my eyes are getting [C] tired [Bb] and my ears are getting [F]
