G C
Well I went down the road, take me back to my honey
G D
I spent my time, made my money and now I'm pointing this ship home
G C
But I'll keep your secrets here, some shack in California
G D C#
I'm shutting my mouth but gotta warn you, everybody knows
( C F7M C )
( C F7M C )
G C
'Cause you've been out all night, always talking at the wrong time
G D
The barroom and the busted lamp light keep you company
G C
And it's there you speak her name and give in to the lips of strangers
G D C#
But poor boy, you'll never tame her, she knows your talk is cheap
( C F7M C )
( C F7M C )
G A7
And by the time that you go get her, by the time that you feel better
G C C F7M C
By the time that you realize the new you is a drag
G C D G
She'll be rolling in new love and you'll be rolling on the exile rag
G C
So Shotgun Annie, come, look down your barrel at me
G D
Take your time, feel free to have me dying or alive
G C
'Cause I couldn't stand to walk wild streets in New York freezing
G D C#
Looking for a love that pleasing to waltz into my life
( C F7M C )
( C F7M C )
G A7
But by the time that her door's closing and you feel like you're imposing
G C
on that brand new boyfriend she has
G C D G
She'll be rolling in new love and 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 D
Shows her teeth and walks just like you do in the middle of the night
G C
Knee-high boots and bells, she does a turn-round for me
G D C#
Holds me close but then ignores me underneath the light
( C F7M C )
( C F7M C )
G A7
And by the time that her train's parting and her tragedy's restarting
G C
And it's you or the cash in a bag
G C D Em A7
She'll be rolling in millions and you'll be singing the exile rag
C D
She'll be rolling in new love
( G C )
