G Em G Em
Seems like yesterday I was here
G Em G Em
Dreamin' my life away and drinkin' beer
C C G Em G Em
Staying up till dawn strummin' on guitars
C C G Em G Em
Sleepin' all day long just like the big rock stars
D C G Em G Em
Barely livin' on money from tip jars
[Verse 2]
G Em G Em
I had a little place just up the block
G Em G Em
Had me a French girlfriend I loved the way she talked
C C G Em G Em
We spent our afternoons watchin' the TV
C C G Em G Em
Findin' things to do that we could do for free
D C G Em G Em
When we split up she said you don't do enough for me
[Chorus]
C D G C D G
I am guilty of a dreadful selfish crime
C D G Em G Em
I had robbed myself of all my precious time
[Verse 3]
G Em G Em
Had my first gig here in the neighborhood
G Em G Em
We had a little band I thought was good
C C G Em G Em
Hocked my old shotgun bought a used P.A.
C C G Em G Em
We got a quart of rum drank it all that day
D C G Em G Em
When the big gig come we were just to drunk to play
[Chorus]
C D G C D G
I am guilty of a dreadful selfish crime
C D G Em G Em
I had robbed myself of all my precious time
C D G C D G
I am guilty of a dreadful selfish crime
C D G Em G Em
I had robbed myself of all my precious time

[Verse 4]
G Em G Em
Sometimes I can't believe those days are gone
G Em G Em
Most of my friends back then have moved along
C C G Em G Em
One's in Hollywood one's a millionaire
C C G Em G Em
Some are gone for good some still livin' here
G Em G Em
Me I'm just the same lost in a crowd
G Em G Em
Lookin' for the rain in a thunder cloud
C C G Em G Em
I have moved around but it don't matter though
C C G Em G Em
One thing I have found there are just two ways to go
D C G Em G Em
It all comes down to livin' fast or dyin' slow
[Chorus]
C D G C D G
I am guilty of a dreadful selfish crime
C D G Em G Em
I had robbed myself of all my precious time
C D G C D G
I am guilty of a dreadful selfish crime
C D G Em G Em
I had robbed myself of all my precious time
[Instrumental]

[Outro]
G Em G Em
Seems like yesterday
G Em G Em
