VERSE 1
********
F Am
Suddenly like lightning there is a doubt
C F
25 was a good time but I'm older now
Am
How did I get so lost in the middle of night
C F
Know where have you been all my life
Am
Round here they pick me up and let me down
C F
Pour some salt in your wounds and then lay you out
Am C F
I've never seen anybody get out of this town alive
--------------------
CHORUS
*******
F C
But I'd sure like to show you round
F C F
Where the moon lays the ocean down
C F
But if you got someone to see

VERSE 2
********
F Am
And when you finally finished feeling sorry for yourself
C F
Come on I'll give you a reason to feel sorry for yourself
F
So I moved away from home to get away from it all
C F
Found out the blues could follow me
Am
I used to come home and play records on the tape deck
C F
In a big old Buick like our fathers had
Am C F
Turns out we're just like our fathers, babe, well look at that
--------------------
CHORUS
*******
F C
And I'd sure like to show you around
F C F
This old heart who loves you now
C F
And if you got someone to see
C
I don't mean to hold you up
F C F C F C G

CHORUS
*******
C F C F
And I'd sure love to prove you wrong
C F C F
And not everyone trying to steal your love
C F
So if you got someone to be
C F C F
Well I'd sure love to show around
C F
ENJOY.............
