[/] [/] [/] [/] [/] [/]
Verse 1 [3/4]:
[A7]Stepping off a s[D7]tone, while I'm w[G7]alking all a[C7]lone
[A7]Walking all al[D7]one, like [G7]always[C7]
I [F7]got me a [Bb7]new car, it d[Eb7]oesn't get me [Ab7]too far
[A7]I'm all out of [D7]gas, like [A7]always[D7]
Verse 2:
Gotta pay the rent, but all my money's spent
All my money's spent, like always
I wonder where my pay went, missed another payment
I'm all out of bread, like always
Chorus [3/4] (chords implied by vocal harmonies):
[F#m7]Girl, [B13] [F#m9] let the w[B13]orld have my [F#m7]money,[B13] I don't [F#m9]care[B13]
[Em7]Girl,[A13] [Em9] make my t[A13]roubles seem f[C7]unny and [F7-5]small
In[Bm7-5] no time at [E7]all
Bridge [4/4]:
H[A7]ey, girl...[D7]
I been down so long
Yeah, why should it be
[G7] If I get to feeling h[C7]igh just thinking
high just thinking
Wrong if I get high
Of y[A7]ou alone [D7] Can make up for the
you alone you alone
Only you alone
B[G7]ad times (u[C7]nintelligible)
For the bad times and (unintelligible)
If you [F7]go it will be the same a[Bb7]gain
I'll be down another fr[Eb7]iend
Let me say it once a[Ab7]gain, don't you let it
S[A7]lip away like [D7]always (don't [A7]go)
Don't slip away like [D7]always
[repeat chorus]
Verse 3:
Things have got to move, I've been too long in this groove
Too long in this groove, like always
Things are getting better, ever since I met her
Oh, oh - there she goes, mmm-mmm
Coda:
Like [A7]always[D7]
[A7] Uh-[D7]huh, like [A7]always[D7]
A7 D7 [continue w/backing vocals to fade]
(Slip away like always)
[spoken: I don't know what to do about that girl
She just comes and goes and goes and goes...]
