Intro: G---Am---G---Am-D-G---Am---Bm---Cmaj7
| G | D | |
| You've got your | big girls |
| C | D | |
| Now you have your | young ones too |
| Wonder if someday I can have them |
| The way I once had you |
| Em | D | |
| I remember your | grin and remarks |
| Em | D | |
| We'd get drunk and go | out after dark |
| C | D | |
| Searching for someone | we could take home |
| G | Am | |
| You don't wanna | be alone |
| G | Am | D | |
| You don't wanna | see the | sun go down |
| G | Am | |
| You don't wanna | open the door |
| D | C | D | C | |
| And see | her | go |
| One step and tomorrow comes |
| Two steps and she's off with someone |
| Three steps and it's all you know |
| Bm | C | |
| You'll be | home, she'll be | gone |
| G-D-C-D | |
| So what are you gonna do about me? |
| I'll be there when you have no one else |
| Spotted the ocean in the south's holy land |
| I'll be there, be your friend |
| (Em-D thing) |
| Hold on strong, don't let go |
| There'll never be no one to take your place |
| So don't you wanna reach out and take my hand? |
| (chorus) |
| Solo: G-D-C-D thing, then Em-D thing |
| (chorus) |
| (repeat 2nd half of chorus) |
