G
Beer cans to the
ceiling
Cadd9
Ashtray on the floor
G
Laundry on the sofa
D
Need I say more
G
I walked out with
my
hair wet
Cadd9
I caught one awful
cold
G
Should have been more
careful
D
Should have done like
I was told
G
I can't believe it
Cadd9
How could it be
G
Just like you said
could happen
D
So it did to me
G
Just when I might
have
Cadd9
Seen the light of
day
G
I crossed my eyes '
til they
D
Stayed that way
[Chorus]
Cadd9
I keep my distance
D
As best I can
Cadd9
Living out my time here
G D
in Never Never land
Cadd9
And I can't grow up
G
'Cause I'm too old
Cadd9
now
G
I guess I really did
Cadd9 G/B D
it this time mom

G
The boogie man
came calling
Cadd9
I said I wasn't
home
G
He didn't believe
me
D
He wasn't alone
G
He had my number
Cadd9
He got my goat
G
He bought my tickets
D
And paid off my note
G
And he left in a hurry
Cadd9
Said he couldn't stay
G
I guess he had his
reasons
D
I'm not the one to say
[Chorus]
Cadd9
I keep my distance

As best I can

Lets go chase tornadoes
Cadd9
Just me and you
G
You don't often catch 'em
D
But man when you do
G
Just take my catch rope
Cadd9
And crawl out on the wing
G
We won't come down 'till we
D
Own that thing
G
Then we'll sit out on
the front porch
Cadd9
Quiet as a mouse
G
One last time before they
D D
Close on the house
[Chorus]
Cadd9
We keep our distance

As best we can

Havin' us a time here

And we can't grow up
We're much too
