[Bb] Most of my life I've been running around, playing and having [Eb] a ball.
[Cm] And maybe [F] I've been on [Cm] a party too [F] long, but [Cm] these memories [F] are fun to [Bb] recall.
[F]
[Bb] You see we've got this thing about women, smoking and good [Eb] alky -hawks.
[F] But now we're looking for a home life, clean smelling [Cm] sheets and [F] all the soft places [Bb] to fall.
The women we've known have been many, but they don't understand us [Eb] at all.
Though [Cm] we've spent [F] many a [Cm] long hour, [F]
[Cm] hoping some [F] old lover [Bb] would call.
Surely somebody somewhere still wants us, [Bb] or don't nobody want [Eb] us at all.
[F] We're looking [Cm] for a home [F] life, clean [Cm] smelling sheets [F] and all the soft places [Bb] to fall.
[Eb] Most of our lives [Bb] we've been outlaws, [Eb] spent with our backs to the wall.
I'm a rambler, I'm a seeker, [Bb] and we're [A] getting weaker, [Gm] and a whole lot more likely [F] to fall.
[Bb] Tire, the rocks and the bramble, those barbed wire fences [Eb] and all.
[F] And we're looking [Cm] for a home [F] life, clean smelling [Cm] sheets [F] and all the soft places [Bb] to fall.

[Bb] We're tired of the [F] rocks and [Bb] the bramble, those barbed wire fences [Eb] and all.
And [F] we're looking for a [Cm] home life, [F] clean smelling [Cm] sheets and [F] all the soft places [Bb] to fall.
