Version 1
[Verse 1]
A D
I've a tale or two to tell you
F#m B
But the booze just makes me slow
A D
Oh, I could rack my brain remembering
E F#m
But I guess maybe I'll just go
A D
There's a method to my madness
F#m B
There's a secret to this town
A D
How? There's a reason why I'm still living here
E F#m
Though I can't think of it right now
[Bridge]
E F#m A D
I made a promise when I left for the coast, twenty long years ago
E F#m A D
I made a life out of chasing a ghost, twenty years takes its toll
[Chorus]
Bm E A D
I got along for a while, I guess, but it took everything I had
Bm E A D E
I gotta find a way out of this mess, I'm in trouble and it sure looks bad
A D F#m B

[Verse 2]
A D
I've a thought or two to share with you
F#m B
But the dope tends to cloud my mind
A D
And I destroyed my health searching for myself
E F#m
But there ain't nothing there to find
A D
There's a debt or two I owe you
F#m B
But the gambling left me poor
A D
Oh, I put up my name in the sacred game
E F#m
And forgot what I was playing for
[Bridge]
E F#m A D
I made a promise when I left for the coast, twenty long years ago
E F#m A D
I made a life out of chasing a ghost, twenty years takes its toll
[Chorus]
Bm E A D
I got along for a while, I guess, but it took everything I had
Bm E A D E
I gotta find a way out of this mess, I'm in trouble and it sure looks bad

A D E F#m
[Chorus]
Bm E A D
I gotta find a way out of this mess, I'm in trouble and it sure looks bad
Bm E A D
I gotta find a way out of this mess, I went looking and it drove me mad
Bm E A D
I gotta find a way out of this mess, I'm in trouble and it sure looks bad
Bm E A D E
I gotta find a way out of this mess, I ain't never seen you look so sad, yeah
