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