Trolling the bars, hitting on the soldiers

Boys give it up without a fight
A          A            D      E

I know you really want to take me home”

Last I heard, he had a rope around his neck
A                   E        A
Dragging around the grocery store
A                     D	                E
Carrying her bags and pushing down the aisles
              A                      E        A
Saying, “I ain’t got no home in this world anymore”

Books been written and truths been tried
A                          D           E
They’ll take it all if the door’s left open
A                          E         A
Steal the nose right from under your eyes
