Starts off in A with a shuffle riff
A - A - C - C#
When playing E also same patters E - E - G - G#
(A)Well I met you in the middle of a bar room fight
In a cheap motel on the Missouri side
I had you (E) out in my car in the parking lot
(A) Early next morning we were driving east
Headed for the big city where I felt at least
We could (E) enjoy the weather as long as we didn’t talk (A)
(G) Well I spoiled it my speaking my swirling head
And your (E) grown up eyes turned to me and said
There’s only (D) one thing you got wrong with you
You (F#) need the whole world looking at you
(E) Why don’t you find yourself a life that’s real
Too Lazy to work, Too nervous to (A) steal
(A) Well we got to the city and you got a job
Delivering the LL Bean Catalog
I was (E) bored and restless didn’t know where to go
(A) Now late one evening after I got up
My guitar and I found my way into a club
I saw that (E) queen of diamonds work that big dance floor
(G) Well she looked at me but I couldn’t go
That (E) familiar face said do you wanna know
There’s only (D) one thing you got wrong with you
You (F#) need the whole world looking at you
(E) Why don’t you find yourself a life that’s real
Too Lazy to work, Too nervous to (A) steal
Solo in A
(B) You gave me 24 hours to pack up my bags and glide (A)
(F#) No one’s got respect for a man going over the side (E)
(A) Well you went back to the station to make sure I wasgone
That bus was on time you didn’t have to wait long
I saw (E) the bright lights of Nashville disappear behind me(A)
(A) Well that greyhound was cool after the summer heat
I could still your face from my window seat
I was (E) so happy to see your crooked smile of relief (A)
(G) But after miles and miles of that highway’s drone
I hear the (E) lastthing you said when we were all alone
There’s only (D) one thing you got wrong with you
You (F#) need the whole world looking at you
(E) Why don’t you find yourself a life that’s real
Too Lazy to work, Too nervous to (A) steal
(E) Too Lazy to work, Too nervous to (A) steal
