Intro: D / A / D / G / A / D

[Verse:]
D                                 
When I was a rover, met a four 
leaf clover, she was Irish as the 
     A
day was long
D                                 
I thought she'd give it to me 
             G
maybe, now she's married with a 
baby,
          A                  D
I've been dodging bullets all along
D                                 
Man, we would creep but never lost
 no sleep, I would cut catnip into 
    A
the weed,
D                             G  
Nobody was the wiser but they 
                           A       
could have been higher and it meant
             D
 more money for me

[Chorus:]
Continues after the ad
             G              G D  
Here's to not getting caught, 
                A
doctor it's only a graze
D                    G           
Spinning like a top, running like
                   A               
 a villain and the years are going 
        D  A
by like days
G                   A       D
The years are going by like days
D  A      G               A     
Days, the years are going by like 
  D
days

[Verse:]
D                            
School bus, I got on it, I was 
nearly catatonic, I couldn't speak a
           A
 goddamn word
D                       G        
Homeroom class, forge a hall pass
                  A               
 and we would get higher than the 
D
birds
D                                 
My foolish nature, the chase for 
the paper, I would deal in the broad
A
 daylight
D
18 years old, head full of 
psilocybin and howling at the moon 
all night

[Chorus]

[Bridge:]
G                   D
Small town shadows, clean out of 
sight,
D                              A
nothing to fear but the coming of 
that morning light
G                       D         
Ducking and dodging and diving for
 Bm
 that rent,
                  G     A         
if it couldn't be broken, it could
    D
 be bent

[Solo:] D / A / D / G / A / D

[Verse:]
D                            
I was washing dishes, stealing 
                                  A
kisses, making our deals on the side
D                                 
She said are you ready honey, 
      G                       A   
'cause we got gas money and we're 
                 D
going on a long long ride
D                            
Lying like a rug, prescription 
                          A
drugs, old guitars, new girlfriends
D                            G   
Everybody shunned me, I just 
                              A    
thought that it was funny and I'd 
          D
do it all over again

[Chorus:]
               G              
Here's to never getting caught, 
G D                  A
doctor it's only a graze
D                    G           
Spinning like a top, running like
                   A               
 a villain and the years are going 
        D
by like days
D                    G           
Spinning like a top, running like
                   A               
 a villain and the years are going 
        D  A
by like days
G                   A       D
The years are going by like days
D  A      G               A     
Days, the years are going by like 
  D
days
