[B] [E] [A] [B]
[E] When I was a rover met a four leaf clover, as Irish as the day [B] was long.
[E] Thought she'd give it to me maybe, [A] now she's married with a baby.
[B] I've been dodging bullets all [E] along.
Man we were creepin', never lost no sleep, and I would cut catnip [B] into the weed.
[E] Nobody was the wiser, [A] but could have been [B] higher, and it meant more money [E] for me.
[A] Just not getting caught, [E] well doctor it's [B] only a grade.
[E] Span [C#m] like a [A] top, run like a [B] villain, and the years are gone [E] by like days.
[F#] [F#m] [B] Years are gone by [E] like days.
Days.
[F#] [F#m] Years are gone [E] by like days.
School bus I got on it, I was nearly catatonic and couldn't speak a [B] god damn word.
[E] Homeroom [A] class, 4 to hall [B] pass, and we would get [E] hired in the birds.
My foolish nature, the chase for the paper I would deal in the [B] broad daylight.

Small town [E] shadows, clean out of sight.
Nothing to fear but [B] the coming of that morning light.

Ducking and [E] dodging and diving [C#m] for that rent if [A] it couldn't be broken, [B] [E] could be bent.

Washing dishes, stealing kisses, making a [B] deal on the side.
[E] She said, you ready [A] honey, cause we got gas [B] money and we're going on a [E] long, long ride.
Lying like a rug, prescription drugs, old guitars, new [B] girlfriends.
[E]
Everybody [A] shunned me, I just thought that it was [B] funny and I'd do it all [E] over again.
[A] Just never getting caught, [E] well doctor it's [B] only a grade.
