[Intro]
D G D G
[Verse 1]
D There's a Coke machine glowin' through the parking lot G Call it a room with a view D Was the best night of pool that I ever shot G Made a lot of money too A Looking for some company G In the weekly "Scene" Em D G A Seen an ad it, just had to be you A Ain't seen you since New Orleans A And I never did figure out where you ran off to D I know I looked bad the last time you saw me G But lately I been doin' all right D 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 D G Best that I could find A We could just sit here and talk all night 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 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
[Verse 2]
D You know I ain't expecting anybody but you G I don't know who that could be at the door D But 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 Em G But don't flush it down just yet A Put your pager in my suitcase A I'll get the window A You light a cigarette A 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 is also an old friend of mine Em A 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 3]
D Good thing we didn't throw this away, baby G Turn up that radio D I'm pretty sure that cop knew what we were up to G I guess he just decided to let us go A G Don't make such a thing about the picture Em G That's just something I kept A Don't get all sentimental on me now, girl A You haven't even told me what your new name is yet
[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
