You used to leave your scent (GEDG)
On his whiskey soaked collar (GEDG)
You both would paint the town (EDBmE)
Drink up his very last dollar (GEDG)

And rode away when it was done (GEDG)
Now he's confused and I know why (Cmaj7-

Ain't like rain (GEDG)
Remember lively little Richard. (GEDG)
But his men were painting town (EDBmE)
You were in need of attention (GEDG)
So he thought he'd take you on down (EDEG)
And there you first saw me (GEDG)
And realized you were no longer free (Cmaj7-
