[Verse]
E A
Well I've been going for a couple of years
E B7
And it seems that the answer it is coming quite clear
E A
Oh I don't even know what I am doing here
E
But I can drive with my eyes closed
B7
And play by ear
E
And I can sleep beneath the piano
C
Just like that's my natural home
B7 D E
With all those keys I never feel alone
Yes I can sleep beneath the piano
C
Just like that's my natural home
B7 D E
With all those keys I never feel alone
A
I met a girl in a sleepy town down by the sea
E B7
She swore she didn't want nothing from me
E A
Now if you ever hear that line boy don't you dare believe
E B7
There ain't nothing but deep blues down in that bitter recipe
E A
And when I left town she had those tears in her eyes
E B7
But, I ain't one for no emotional goodbyes
E C
So she swam into that bottle like a fish back to its home
B7 D E
Couple more drinks and you don't know she's alone
E C
Yeah she swam into that bottle like a fish back to the sea
B7 D E
Couple more drinks and she forgot all about me
A
Met a lot of guys a lot tougher than me
E B7
It's like it ain't no kinda competition indeed
E A
They say "hey boy have you ever been stabbed before"
E B7
I said "not yet, I'm grabbin' my hat and just heading for the door"
E A
I made my way down to that rich side of town
E B7
Where everybody's tossin' big words around
E A
But as soon as I turn my back to head downtown
E B7
I hear those whispers like rain just fallin' on down
E C
Say he drink like a fish and he goin' fly like a stone
B7 D E
Boy is better off left alone
E C
Say he drink like a fish and he goin' fly like a stone
B7 D E
Boy is better off left alone
