verse 1
G
Walking on down the street,
Cadd9
Thinking I'm feeling fine.
G
Shaking everyone's hand I meet,
Cadd9
Giving everyone a sip of my wine.
G
Girls ain't giving me the time of day,
Cadd9
But I ain't giving up just yet,
G
They don't like it when I say,
Cadd9
"Baby can I bum a cigarette?"
Chorus
Em Am
But I sing this song for the one I love,
F C
I see her in the stars on a summer night,
Em Am
But rain or shine, you'll still be mine,
C F C G
And I always cry when you don't come around.
verse 2
G
Sitting up late at night,
Cadd9
Trying to finish another 5th.
G
Trying once to get things right
Cadd9
But you tell me it's just a myth.
G
I'm coming with my guns,
Cadd9
I've got a new sack of drugs,
G
Don't you know you're the only one,
Cadd9
You're the only one I'm thinking of.
Chorus
Em Am
But I sing this song for the one I love,

But rain or shine, you'll still be mine,

And I always cry when you don't come around.

I write you letters in the summer darling

This is such a lonely town

And I?ll see you on the 4th of July
C D G
Cause that day I'm homeward bound
verse 3
G
See the people in the world today,
Cadd9
Looking good in their brand new suits.
G
World moves a little fast for me,
Cadd9
I'm getting back to my roots.
G
See the people in the government,
Cadd9
Give your money to Uncle Sam,
G
Even though you can't pay the rent,
Cadd9
But baby I don't really give a damn.
