[Verse:]
D                                                                        A
When I was a rover, met a four leaf clover, she was Irish as the day was long
D                                              G
I thought she'd give it to me maybe, now she's married with a baby,
          A                  D
I've been dodging bullets all along
D                                                                        A
Man, we would creep but never lost no sleep, I would cut catnip into the weed,
D                             G                             A                    D
Nobody was the wiser but they could have been higher and it meant more money for me

[Chorus:]
             G              G D                  A
Here's to not getting caught, doctor it's only a graze
D                    G                              A                       D  A
Spinning like a top, running like a villain and the years are going by like days
G                   A       D
The years are going by like days
D  A      G               A       D
Days, the years are going by like days

[Verse:]
D                                                                           A
School bus, I got on it, I was nearly catatonic, I couldn't speak a goddamn word
D                       G                          A               D
Homeroom class, forge a hall pass and we would get higher than the birds
D                                                                     A
My foolish nature, the chase for the paper, I would deal in the broad daylight
D
18 years old, head full of psilocybin and howling at the moon all night

[Chorus]

[Bridge:]
G                   D
Small town shadows, clean out of sight,
D                              A
nothing to fear but the coming of that morning light
G                       D          Bm
Ducking and dodging and diving for that rent,
                  G     A             D
if it couldn't be broken, it could be bent

[Solo:] D / A / D / G / A / D

[Verse:]
D                                                              A
I was washing dishes, stealing kisses, making our deals on the side
D                                       G                       A                    D
She said are you ready honey, 'cause we got gas money and we're going on a long long ride
D                                                      A
Lying like a rug, prescription drugs, old guitars, new girlfriends
D                            G                                 A              D
Everybody shunned me, I just thought that it was funny and I'd do it all over again

[Chorus:]
               G              G D                  A
Here's to never getting caught, doctor it's only a graze
D                    G                              A                       D
Spinning like a top, running like a villain and the years are going by like days
D                    G                              A                       D  A
Spinning like a top, running like a villain and the years are going by like days
G                   A       D
The years are going by like days
D  A      G               A       D
Days, the years are going by like days
