Well  he got
G5                          A5
Lonely every time a canteen of lights came up
       C5           G5   G5  -  G5
On the Indian Casino Queen   Cus he?d loved her from the time she?d been the
  A5                C5                              D5
waitress at the Mexican place where he?d left his keys


             A5                   G5
She?d been there smile?n at the lost and found
        C5        /b     A5        B5     ( B5        Bb5   A5 )
Then he took her to see three dog night they were playin? at the fairgrounds
              A5                G5 G5 G5
Holdin? hands singin ?Joy to the World?


        G5   D5   C5
She was way too young
       G5   D5   E5       
But he did not care


A5                              C5
  He was alright with cashin? in
A5                        C5                  C(fade)
  A few fine moments before his broken heart kicked in


[Riff]


G5 - G5 - G5 (fade)


Well he
G5                               A5
died a little bit each time the night came in
      C5                    G5       G5     G5
And the stars fell over Michigan       Cus he?d loved her at the ball when he saw her
A5                     C5                        D5
dancing to ?I Could Never Take the Place of Your Man?


               A5             G5
Then he?d come over to his usual spot
               C5      E5     B5     ( B5     Bb5   A5 )
Soon they were makin? out at three AM in the empty parking lot
       A5                      G5 G5  G5
They lay together under the burnt out stars


        G5     D5     C5
She never loved him back
        G5  D5   E5      
It wasn?t even close

A5                            C5
  But he was fine with just pretend
A5                          C5
  that it was never gonna end
A5                            C5
  and it was worth it just to know
A5                              C5
  A little warmth before the snow
