[C] [G]
[D] [G]
I've sucked it all in these streets before, and I've drowned myself in every bar, [C] but not like I did [G] with you.
Now I got one more night of telling lies, I hope they [C] never [G] tell a lie, the things [D] that I used [G] to do.
[C] [G] [C]
[G]
And now I'm on the run again, for the dumbest thing that I ever [C] did, and I don't know what I should [G] do.
He said he could hardly see you, won't get far, so he let the [C] dog drive the [G] car, in hope [D] that I make [G] it through.
And I said, I [D] might be going [C] away [G] for a while, I [D] might be going [C] away [G] for a while, they [D] might be shipping [C] me away [G] to Dead Man's Isle.
And if I [C] can't find a [G] way to win this [C] dreadful trial, [G] I'll be going [D] away [G] for a while.
[C] [G] [C]
[G]
Well I practiced up and stumbling around, but that night really knocked me [C] down, and now I don't know what [G] to do.
Now that that dog ran off, and I can't blame him, gotta get down [C] out of this mess [G] I'm in, or I won't be [D] going home [G] too soon.
I know I [D] might be going [C] away [G] for a while, I might be [D] going [C] away [G] for a while, they might be shipping me away to Dead Man's Isle.
And if [C] I can't find a [G] way to win this [C] dreadful trial, [G] I'll be going away for a while.

[G] [D] [G]
[N] [Gm]
[G]
Well I never should have let that dog drive, I never should have let him in, I never should have drank that last rye, I never should have drank that gin.
Now I got one more night stuck inside of a police station, and I don't think I'll see [D] that dog again.
[G] I got one [Em] more night of seeing stars, they put [C] my ass behind [G] the bars, I guess [D] they found out where [G] I've been.
[D] And now I'm going [C] away [G] for a while, and now [D] I'm going [C] away [Em] for a [G] while, I guess they're [D] shipping [C] me away [G] to Dead Man's Isle.
And one more night of telling lies, I hope they [C] never tell [G] lies, this one last [C] night of crooked [G] eyes, is lighting the [C] city up tonight.
[G]
Cause I'm going away, I'm going [C] away, [G] I'm going [D] away [G] for a while.
