G Bm Em G Bm Em
[Verse]
G Bm Em I saw your mother downtown yesterday G Bm Em She didn't know me and her hair was gray G Bm Em She told me all her kids had run away G Bm Em They called at Christmas time but really what's left to say
[Chorus]
C Em Am And now the neighbors they don't talk no more C Em Am D C And late at night she listens to the wind under the door C Bm Am And the cracks in the floor
[Interlude]
G Bm Em G Bm Em
[Verse]
G Bm Em Oh guess who I ran into in the waiting room G Bm Em You know they use to say that kid was born with a silver spoon G Bm Em He told me that he left his home much too soon G Bm Em Cause no one ever told him about the power of a real full moon
[Chorus]
C Em Am And than he stopped and just closed his eyes C Em Am D C Bm Am And whispered please could someone help him get outside
[Bridge]
Em Bm And don't tell me you don't hear that hometown calling you Em Cause you know what baby your still doing all the same things Bm You use to do C Am Wo wo darling you never use to wait till tomorrow D C Bm Am And now you can't wait at all

[Verse]
G Bm Em Hey what's the news in the fashion world G Bm Em Is it long or short is it straight or curled G Bm Em Does it pull all my last years in a different world G Bm Em Does it tell your mother how long ago she was a girl
[Chorus]
C Em Am And even churchmen are wearing stripes C Em Am D C And all the hometown girls are getting in much too late tonight C Bm Am I guess they gave up the fight
