[Intro 1]
[D][G]
[D][G]

[Verse 1]
[G]Outta [D]town girls,
they all just want a chance to see [G]the cityscape
And lead a looser game with
[D]all the town boys
They all just want a chance with [G]'em
I understand you can [D]bet
your bare bones
She'll be coming back for [Bm]more
And what [D]for?
Should've called, should've wrote,
leave a note for her before you [Bm]close that door
For some [D]closure
You know she told ya she loves
the way [G]you speak
To [D]her, in the margins of
a postcard she [Bm]keeps from you
[D]Where are the marks of your
failed arts?
Have your [G]daydreams been
keeping you [D]clean? (No!)
You never say what you need to make me
be[G]lieve you're the one that [D]means it
I [Bm]hope it ain't you,
I [G]hope it ain't you to let me [D]down
Don't fail me now, I'm [Bm]running thin
And I've [G]just begun to wonder when you'll [D]let me in,
[G]in, in, in, [D]in
I've got Jesus in my eye, and the
Devil in the corner
Making rye [G]whiskey and gin
Don't you say that [Bm]ain't
[G]him
You should've seen
him when he came [D]in
He said, "The Yankees played today,
they played
But in the eighth the Sox,
they clutched [G]the game
At least the Mets are getting [Bm]laid
Oh [G]yeah, that's what [D]they say"
Bet your bare bones
[G]Everybody, everywhere,
is coming to your party
I heard [Bm]this was the place to be, yeah
[G]Not a lot that you can't get for fre[D]e,
here
Where are the scars of your
failed arts?
Have your [G]daydreams been
keeping [D]you clean? (No!)
You never say what you need to make me
be[G]lieve you're the one that [D]means it
But I [Bm]hope it ain't you,
I [G]hope it ain't you to let me [D]down
Don't fail me [Bm]now, I'm running thin
And I've [G]just begun to wonder
when you'll let me in, in, in, in, in
[D]
