[Verse 1]
[D]When I [G]was a [A]rover,

Man, we would creep but never lost no sleep
I would cut cat nip into the [A]weed
[D]Nobody was the wiser but
[G]they could have been
Higher and it [A]meant more
money [D]for me

[Verse 5]
town shadows,
[D]clean out of sight
Nothing to fear but the coming
[A]of that morning light

[Verse 6]
[D]Washing dishes, stealing kisses,
making our deals on [A]the side
She said [D]are you ready honey, we [G]got gas money,
[A]going on a real [D]long ride
Lying like a rug, prescription drugs,
