Verse: 
 
 
Am   G      C     F 
Won't drink, won't smoke 
Am        G         F 
Won't get home at a hundred o'clock 
Am G              C      F   
Nobody's going to satisfy me 
      Am           G            F 
Except you and the baby and the colour TV 
 
 
I was always in my prime 
Now I'm falling over the line 
The boys are sad to have let me go 
But you got it all to get me home

Dm  Em       F 
You quiet me down 
           Dm       Em          F 
I been all over the place and I ain't found anyone

F         G            Em    Am

Fade with the light 
Satan delivers and the goods are alright 
He's at home now counting the dough 
I'm standing here for another last throw.
