Em
I don't care to say what
C G D
I failed to recognize
Em C G D
Every single day from the poker to the prize
w/o hammers:
Em
Running out of Springfield
C G D
I worked for the Capitol Air in the [bags?]
Em C
Found a woman there who said
G D
She had a mind to make me a messenger man
[Build]

Am G D
If my father took his life for national plan
I don't care
Am G D
I'm not about to stake my grave with a paper and a bucket of plans
Never ever
Am
I can take the pillowcases off the yellow pillows
G D
Make a property line from the bed
Am
In the living room, the living room, the morning papers
G D
Make the most out of nothing at all
Em C G D
So we took the room with a view of the run[a]way
Em C G D
I took off my clothes and she took it for a holiday
[Solo]
Em C G D
I was taken for all the things that I never had before
Em
Running out of Springfield
C G D
She left me with a note saying "Bobby don't look back"
[Build]

Am G D
And if my wife took a bicycle ride with a knife in her hand
I saw it coming
Am G D
All the shadflies run at once with a trumpet or a train
Oh I'm running from it
Am
Wait a minute, wait a minute
G D
Give a minute, baby, I can explain the aftershave
Am
Wait a minute, wait a minute, give a minute
G D
Bobby got a shadfly caught in his hair
