Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][Gm][G][C][G][Gm][G]
[C][G][C][G]
[D][Dsus4][D][Am][C][G]
[F][Am][G][C]

[Verse 1]
In this [C]town,
television shuts off [G]at [C]two
What can a lonely rock
'n' roller [G]do?[D]
Bed so big, the sheets are [Dsus4]clean
[D]You're girlfriend said you were
[Dsus4]nine teen[D][Dsus4][C]

[Verse 2]
The [C]Styrofoam ice
bucket's full of [G]ice[F]
Come up to [Am]my motel ro[G]om
and treat me [C]nice

[Verse 3]
I don't wanna make no [C]late night
New York [G]calls[C]
I don't wanna stare at those ugly
grass mat [G]walls[D]
Chronologically I know you're young
But when you kissed me in the
club you bit my tongue

[Verse 4]
[C]I'll write [Am]a song for you and
put it on my next [G]LP[F]
Come up to my [Am]motel [G]room and sleep with [C]me
[G]

[Interlude 1]
[C][G]
[D][Dsus4][D][Am][G]
[F][Am][G][C]

[Verse 5]
There's a Bible in the [C]drawer,
don't be [G]afraid[C]
I'll put up a sign to warn the
cleanup [G]maid[D]
There's lots of soap and lots of towels
Never mind those desk clerk scowls

[Verse 6]
[C]I'll buy you breakfast,
they'll think you're my [G]wife[F]
Come up to my [Am]motel room
[G]and save my life

[Outro 1]
[C][G]
