A He was a drinking man with a guitar problem E B Didn't have a dollar to his name E A He didn't seem to mind that all that often E B He mostly took whatever came A B And if it came too late, or it came to nothing E A He'd swear beneath his breath E Esus4 E Esus4 There's gotta be something to it E Esus4 E There's gotta be something to it N.C. A She lost her mind and she never missed it E B Folks all said she'd never learn E A She'd take the path of least resistance E B Right to the point of no return A B Apprehended on occasion, got off easy every time E A Said there's gotta be something to it, something to it E Esus4 E Esus4 Don't know why else you'd wanna, put yourself through it Chorus B E B E Well, the nights are gettin' colder, restless as the wind B E A B A E I'll be comin' over, fast as I can, fast as I can N.C. A Well, he had some lines, but he never used them E B She didn't need much talkin' to E A And he thought he'd died and gone to Houston E B By the time the dawn burned off the dew A B And it lit right up, like Roman candles, like fire and gasoline E A And there must have been something to it, something to it E Esus4 E Esus4 Didn't mess around, they had to get right to it Repeat Chorus N.C.
