Settle Down

F# B F#
F# C# F#

[Verse]
F#                      B       F#
A different time, in a faraway place
F#                      B            F#
Born in the bad news, a smile on my face
F#                        B          F#
Was wild and crazy like a caged dog freed
F#                           C#           F#
ain’t nothing like being young broke and naive
F#                               B           F#
I was drivin’ my chevy steady my foot feelin heavy
F#                               B          F#
ready for whatever life goes and throws my way
F#                                  B          F#
In motels I was sleepin’ eatin’ in diners and leavin’
       F#                             C#       F#
little ladies with broken hearts all down the highway

[Pre-Chorus]
         F#    B      F#       B            F#
And it’s hazy baby cuz I cant remember the names
         F#        B              F#             B         C#
Aw man it’s crazy baby, when you think about the good ol’ days

[Chorus]
 F#             B      F#
I was free and I was young
 F#                   B        F#
But it’s been a long road from 21
F#                   B F#
Tryna survive in the USA
F#                                C#      F#
Till them good ol’ boys come and take me away
        F#  B  F#
I said No, I wont
 F#      C#    F#
Go, and settle down
F#  B   F#
No, I wont
 F#                         C#     F#
I don’t think that I could settle down

[Verse]
       F#                      B       F#
In a charleston bar I met an angry old man
             F#                         B   F#
he sang the blues and told me all about Vietnam
F#                                 B    F#
Said hey son you’re lucky just to be alive
F#                                   C#      F#
Cuz these days there really aint no place to hide

         F#                           B         F#
So i’m runnin’ i’m riding I’m rockin rollin I’m flying
            F#                           B       F#
I’m making up for lost time and I’m just findin’ myself
      F#                             B          F#
I was young and in love and didn’t know who to trust
               F#                       C#          F#
Hopped on that greyhound bus man it was hotter than hell

[Pre-Chorus]
F#                B       F#           B               F#
And it’s crazy baby to think about the things we can’t change
F#                  B           F#               B       C#
Aw man it’s hazy baby, when you think about the good ol’ days

[Chorus]
F#             B     F#
I was free and I was young
F#                            C# F#
But it’s been a long road from 21
F#                        B  F#
Tryna survive here in the USA
F#                               C#      F#
Till them good ol’ boys come and take me away

       F#  B  F#
I said No, I wont
F#      C#      F#
Go, and settle down
F#  B  F#
No, I wont
F#                          C#     F#
I don’t think that I could settle down
