Capo on 3rd fret
G D Em7 C9
Now, pretty baby, I'm running back home to you
G D Em7
Fresh out the slammer, I know who my first call will be to
C9
(Fresh out the slammer, oh)
G D
Another summer taking cover, rolling thunder
Em7 C9
He don't understand me
G D
Splintered back in winter, silent dinners, bitter
Em7 C9
He was with her in dreams
G
Gray and blue and fights and tunnels
D Em7
Handcuffed to the spell I was under
C9
For just one hour of sunshine
G
Years of labor, locks and ceilings
D Em7
In the shade of how he was feeling
C9
But it's gonna be alright, I did my time
G D Em7 C9
Now pretty baby, I'm running back home to you
G D. Em7
Fresh out the slammer, I know who my first call will be to
C9
(Fresh out the slammer, oh)
G
Camera flashes, welcome bashes
D Em7 C9
Get the matches, toss the ashes off the ledge As I said
G D
In my letters, now that I know better
Em7 C9
I will never lose my baby again
G
My friends tried, but I wouldn't hear it
D
Watch me daily disappearing
Em7 C9
For just one glimpse of his smile
G
All those nights you kept me going
D Em7
Swirled you into all of my poems
C9
Now we're at the starting line, I did my time
G Em7
Now, pretty baby, I'm running
C9
To the house where you still wait up, and that porch light
G
Gleams
Em7 C9
To the one who says I'm the girl of his American dreams
D
And no matter what I've done, it wouldn't matter anyway
Em7
Ain't no way I'm gonna screw up now that I know what's at stake
C9 (- pausa)
Here
C9
At the park where we used to sit on children's swings
D
Wearing imaginary rings
Em7
But it's gonna be alright
C9
I did my time
