I came in three days early
C/G
To meet my boat
G Gadd9
It ain�t the life of Riley
Em7 C/G
But it�s keeping me afloat
G
It�s quiet over Christmas
C/G
If you got no place to go
G Gadd9
I got my home from river rats
Em7 CMaj7/G G Gadd9 G
The only home I know
G
I found myself a flophouse
C/G
And I hit the streets at nine
G Gadd9
Get some grub and drink a beer
Em7 CMaj7/G
Maybe go down the line
G
These chips will take your money
C/G
Shake a young man down
G Gadd9
It�s the same in every one of these

Well I picked me up a bottle
G CMaj7/G
To take back to the room
G Gadd9
Then I saw a young girl standing

Em7 C/G
In a doorway in the gloom
G Gadd9
We�d hardly started talking
G C/G
The old scenario
G Gadd9
And I just let her work me over
Em7 C/G
Down by the Ohio

G
When I asked her if she�d like to stay
C/G
She was down my stairs so quick
G
I never asked what got her started
Em7 C/G
With the sorry river tricks
G Gadd9
So I get the bottle open
G C/G
But something�s hit a nerve
G Gadd9
And I�m looking in the mirror
Em7 CMaj7/G
At the face that I deserve
