Eb Fm Eb
Sure, I could stay that you're a love sick mama with the blues
Fm
Singing, waiting by your garden gate
Eb Fm Eb
But you're no painted lady fading like a photograph of youth
Fm
If I stumble I will be too late
[Verse 2]

Sure, I could say that you're the love struck kitty
Eb Fm
Month of June, stars of California in your eyes
Eb Fm Eb
But I don't hear the steady tick tock, pretty maiden your tune
Fm
I could lose you in the bluest skies
[Chorus]
Ab
But there's no fair the well
Ab
As far as I can tell
Eb Gm Bbm Eb7
As far as I can see beyond the hill
Ab
There's no great escape
Abm Eb
Out of this rolling landscape
Gm Bbm Eb7
The summer rains are falling still
Ab
And they may kill me
[Bridge]
Cm Ab Cm F
Like my heart sending darker blood through my veins
Cm Eb Ab Abm7 Bb
We're kissing, peeling off our clothes in the midnight rain
[Verse 3]
Eb Fm Eb
And sure, you could say that I'm a new city kid with branded feet
Fm
Who never calls you at your garden gate
Eb Fm Eb
But I'm the one who finds you dancing on your slow down darkened street
Fm
Dance with me, darling, it's never too late
[Chorus]
Ab
At night we count the stars
Ab
Get drunk and kiss in bars
Eb Gm Bbm Eb7
And we forget the miles between the two
Ab Abm
And in the morning snow, you scream at me, "Just go!"
Eb Gm Bb
And curse, the highways take me away from you
Fm
Highways like you
Ab Eb
They may kill me but I won't apologize feeling the light
[Outro]
Fm Eb
Fm Eb
I won't apologize, o-oh
Fm Eb
I won't apologize, oh no
Fm Eb
I won't apologize, no-o
Fm Eb
I won't apologize, no-o
Fm Eb
I won't apologiiiiize, no no
