G
I came on the radio on your porch
G Em
Playing songs that remind you of that time

And stood around just talking to your girlfriends

Saying I was just a little more than something fine,
G
Well I've got mine.

I could hear the radio in my car

All the boys moved out and left me here to waste

Like I've been erased.

I could see the shadows of my old street,

I remember days when I was not so lost

When did I go soft?

Now I pick my head up in the daylight,

Drive for miles until I hit the dead moonlight,
G
Until I am right.
