D                  D/F#
Got a call from an old friend
               G
We used to be real close
A                                   D
Said he couldn't go on the American way
D                          D/F#
Closed the shop, sold the house
                        G
Bought a ticket to the West Coast
A                                        (D)
Now he gives them a stand-up routine in L.A.

A                                                D
   I don't want you to tell me it's time to come home

I don't care what you say anymore, this is my life
A                                             Bm

Bm                                  F#7/C#
I never said you had to offer me a second chance

  I never said I was a victim of circumstance
G           D/F#   F#              Bm
  I still belong,     don't get me wrong

  And you can speak your mind
    G/A  A   G/A  A
But not  on  my   time
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
D                      D/F#
They will tell you you can't sleep
              G
Alone in a strange place
A                                                   D
Then they'll tell you you can't sleep with somebody else
D                           D/F#
But sooner or later you sleep
        G
In your own space
A                                        (D)
Either way it's okay to wake up with yourself

   I don't want you to tell me it's time to come home
D                      D/F#                G
