[Verse]
G
Well you mind rolling down your window
                   D
Cause I'm a target too
G                C
Empty wisdom and empty pockets
    G     D       G
Are all I got for you
G
You can't pretend to buy em
                         D
And you can't pretend to pay
G
I'm gonna spend my money
       C
On the cost of livin
    G        D           G
And walk the streets all day
C            G
Come on back Melinda
                     C
Come on back to your home
G             D       G      C
I ain't gonna be that way no more 
  G           D       G
I ain't gonna be that way

G
I wait for mornin' to come and save me
                     D
And bring me back to life
      G       C                  G      D     G
maybe sail on down the river and get myself a wife
G
It's lonely here sittin down without you
                     D
Got too much time to think
G                             C
My jealous thoughts are gonna kill relentless
    G       D      G
And drive a man to drink

   C            G
So come on back Melinda
                     C
Come on back to your home
G             D       G      C
I ain't gonna be that way no more
  G           D       G
I ain't gonna be that way
