[A] [A]
[F#] [C#] It's too early for the circus, it's too [F#m] late [B] for the [Bm] bars.
[E]
Everyone's sleeping to the [A] paper boys.
No one in his town is [D] making [E] any [D] noise.
[Am] But the dogs and [E] the milkmen and [A] me.
[D] The girls [E] around here all look [D] like [Em] Cadillacs.
[A] [E] No one likes a stranger [A] here.
I [D] come [E] home but I'm afraid that you [D] won't take me [A] back.
[B] But I'd trade off everything [E] just to have you near.
[C#] I know I'm irresponsible, [F#m] I don't [Bm] behave.
[E] And I ruined everything that I [A] do.
I'll probably get arrested when I'm [D] in my grave.
But I'll [A] be saving all [E] my love for [A] you.
I [D] paid fifteen [E] dollars for [G] a prostitute.
[A] [C#] [E] Too much makeup and [A] a broken [Em] shoe.
[A] [D] But her eyes were just [E] a counterfeit.
She [D] tried [A] to tip me out.
[B] But you know that I'm still in love [E] with you.
Don't [F#] [C#] listen to the rumors [Bm] that you hear about me.
[E] Because I ain't half as bad as they make [A] me out to be.
Well I may lose my mind, but [D] baby can't you see.
I'll be [A] saving [E] all my love for [C#] you.
