VERSE 1

A5
So listen up. (So listen up)
C5
I worked in daylight feeding fashion to housewives.
A5 
For just this once. (For just this once)
C5
I'll take my chances at truck stops and state lines.

G5
Go ahead and tell them again.
A5
Well I think that I know that they won't remember
C5
Go out and tell them twice.
A5                          C5
Yeah, twice is nice, but three times is just right.

CHORUS

G5                 A5
Hey, hey, now we're almost home.
C5                                 A5
I'm missing you to death but it's all for the best I know.
G5                  A5
Hey, hey, we're not far from home.
C5                                A5
I've got my pride, and I'll let you sleep tonight.

VERSE 2

A5
So listen up. (So listen up)
C5
My old friends have been dropping like houseflies.
A5                                            C5
The smoking gun still sits in my pocket and I know how to use it.

G5
Go ahead and tell them again.
A5                                C5
Well I think that I know that I won't forgive them
A5
For turning their backs when we started to get busy.
G5                            A5            C5
Well yeah twice is fine but three times is just right.


CHORUS

G5                  A5
Hey, hey, now we're almost home.
G5                               C5
I'm missing you to death but to each his own.
G5                  A5
Hey, hey, we're not far from home.
C5                   A5
I've got my pride, and I'll let you sleep tonight.
G5                   A5
Hey, hey, now we're almost home.
G5                         A5
I'm missing you to death, missing you to death.
G5                   C5
hey, hey we're not far from home.
A5                       C5
I'll swallow my pride and push back my seat tonight.

BRIDGE

C5                A5             C5
I'm on my feet, I'm on my feet, I'm on my feet.
I'm on my feet, (this isn't like us anyway)
I'm on my feet, (this isn't like us anyway)
I'm on my feet, (this isn't like us anyway)

G5
I'm running,

G5
Our time is almost,
C (add9 optional)
Our time is almost here. (This isn't like us anyway)
