[Verse]
D D7 There's a Coke machine glowin' through the parking lot G Call that a room with a view D D7 It was the best night of pool that I ever shot G I made a lot of money too N.C A I was looking for some company G In the weekly "Scene" Em G Seen an ad it just had to be you A5 F#m/A A5 F#m/A I hadn't seen you since New Orleans A F#m/A A5 F#m/A Never did figure out where you'd run off to
[Verse]
D D7 I know I looked bad last time that you saw me G But lately I been doin' all right D D7 I won a tournament last week in Oklahoma City G Hustled half of this town tonight A G I got some cocaine if you want some Em G It's the best that I could find A5 F#m/A A F#m/A Hey, we could just sit here and talk all night A5 F#m/A A F#m/A If that big ol' guy out in the car don't mind
[Chorus]
G D Like old times A D Screw off the top on a bottle of wine G D A5 F#m/A Living out our own kind of American dream G D Old times A D Your goal was always the same as mine G D A D You didn't want to get your fishing line in that old main stream
[Verse]
D D7 No I ain't expecting anybody but you G I don't know who this could be at the door D D7 I'm pretty sure that you got a clue G And I bet that you've been to this hotel before A G Put the "you-know-what" - In the bathroom but Em G don't flush it down just yet A5 F#m/A A F#m/A Put your pager in my suitcase, I'll get the window A5 F#m/A A F#m/A You light a cigarette, It'll be like
[Chorus]
G D Old times A D Just like the old times G D A Living out our own kind of American dream G D Old times A D Your goal was always the same as mine G D A D You didn't want to throw a fishing line in that old main stream
[Bridge]
Em No sir, officer, you don't understand A We're just two old friends drinkin' wine Em I'm sure she is but that's not all she is A She's also an old friend of mine Em A I got her high school picture right here in my wallet - 1982 Em No sir officer no offense taken A You have a good night, too
[Verse]
D D7 Good thing we didn't throw this away G Baby Turn up the radio D D7 I'm pretty sure those cops knew what we were up to G I guess they just decided to let us go A G Don't make such a thing about the picture Em G That was just something I kept A5 F#m/A A F#m/A Don't get all sentimental on me now, girl A5 F#m/A A F#m/A You haven't even told me what your new name is yet
[Chorus]
G D Like old times A D Just like the old times G D A Living out our own kind of American dream G D Old times A D Your goal was always the same as mine G D A D You didn't want to throw a fishing line in that old main stream
N.C.
And you didn't
