Stayin Out Late

	  		Chorus: A                     E          A 
        Stayin' out late in a honky tonk bar 
                    D           E 
        Findin' new ways to be untrue 
        A           D   E                 A 
        Drinkin' my way through this month's rent 
                        E          A 
        Seems to be the best I can do 
 
Verse:  A                        D 
        Drunk and enraged and I'm showin' my age 
          E                           A 
        I dreamt away my money and my mind 
                                        D 
        No woman to call wife, I got no home to spend my life 
            E                            A 
        And no desire for either at this time 
 
                                        D 
        I'm showin' no signs of growing up at any time 
        E                           A 
        I keep a firm grasp upon my youth 
                                              D 
        And the subtlety of love is something I know nothing of 
        E                                A 
        And I have got no concept of the truth 
 
Chorus 
 
Solo:   A  D  E   A 
 
Bridge: E                 A 
        It's all a matter of where you're going 
        B                                 E 
        I don't know where I'm going from here 
 
Solo:   A  D  E   A 
 
Verse:  A                         D 
        Desperate ways seem to control my every day 
                 E                        A 
        And it's hard to understand why I run 
                              D 
        But this poet's dance is my last chance 
               E                                 A 
        To lay down my pen and show you how it's done 
 
Chorus 
 
Tag:    A                       E          D   A D A D A 
        Yeah it seems to be the best I can do
