Rules

A D A E
It's so hard to say goodbye to the nightcrawler poet.
A D E
The one who can't help it 'cause he's drunk.
D A
I keep sayin I'm goin straight in the mornin'.
A E
But I'll be stronger in the morning than I thunk.

CHORUS
D F#m
I've seen it happen, seen it all come down in the rain.
A E A E
Rules are for the wicked. Here we go again.

I don't want to be like the sober.
Of what I'm going thru, they haven't a clue.
But lately I can feel it in my body.
It don't do what it used to do.

CHORUS

Lord all my clean dreams are boring as hell.
Just one more day eternity.
Even if I do become the man of her dreams,
then who is going to be me?

CHORUS
