     G                    C
Well I went down the road, take me 
back to my honey
G                                 
I spent my time, made my money and
         D
 now I'm pointing this ship home
         G                      
But I'll keep your secrets here, 
 C
some shack in California
G                                 
I'm shutting my mouth but gotta 
        D                C#
warn you, everybody knows

       G                         C
'Cause you've been out all night, 
always talking at the wrong time
G                             
The barroom and the busted lamp 
        D
light keep you company
         G                        
And it's there you speak her name 
C
and give in to the lips of strangers
G                                 
But poor boy, you'll never tame 
   D                             C#
her, she knows your talk is cheap

                       G           
And by the time that you go get 
                       A7
her, by the time that you feel 
better
                     G             
By the time that you realize the 
           C C F7M C
new you is a drag
                     G           
She'll be rolling in new love and 
           C              D     G
you'll be rolling on the exile rag

G                      C
So Shotgun Annie, come, look down 
your barrel at me
G                                 
Take your time, feel free to have 
    D
me dying or alive
         G                      C
'Cause I couldn't stand to walk wild
 streets in New York freezing
G                                
Looking for a love that pleasing 
D                    C#
to waltz into my life

                         G     
But by the time that her door's 
                             A7
closing and you feel like you're 
imposing
        G                       C
on that brand new boyfriend she has
                     G           
She'll be rolling in new love and 
           C              D      G
you'll be singing on the exile rag

G                               C
Well the ghost here ain't so bad, 
but I swear she talks just like you
G                                 
Shows her teeth and walks just 
         D
like you do in the middle of the 
night
G                         C
Knee-high boots and bells, she does 
a turn-round for me
G                                  
Holds me close but then ignores me 
D                     C#
underneath the light

                         G      
And by the time that her train's 
                           A7
parting and her tragedy's restarting
          G                    C
And it's you or the cash in a bag
                     G           
She'll be rolling in millions and 
           C           D     Em   
you'll be singing the exile rag
 A7

                     C          D
She'll be rolling in new love

( G  C )
