E A Got a call from an old friend weʼd used to be real close B E Said he couldnʼt go on the American way A Closed the shop, sold the house, bought a ticket to the west coast B E Now he gives them a stand-up routine in L.A. E A I donʼt need you to worry for me cause Iʼm allright B E I donʼt want you to tell me itʼs time to come home A I donʼt care what you say anymore this is my life B C#m Go ahead with your own life leave me alone G# I never said you had to offer me a second chance E7 F#9 I never said I was a victim of circumstance A E I still belong G# C#m Donʼt get me wrong F#9 And you can speak your mind A B A B But not on my time E A They will tell you you canʼt sleep alone in a strange place B E Then theyʼll tell you canʼt sleep with somebody else A Ah but sooner or later you sleep in your own space B E Either way itʼs O.K. you wake up with yourself
