A     G  A
[Verse]
AEveryone knows me, the Dlocal inside Ajoke
I was Gonce the life of the party, Dpills, liquor and Asmoke
It Amakes a fella stop and wonder "Dhow much did I Alose?"
In the Gdying breath of the party, a Dpart of me died Atoo
[Instrumental]
A     D  E
A     G  A
[Verse]
The Ademons, the devils, and the Dghosts of rock and Aroll
The Gvanguard of the young and reckless Dleft town long aAgo
They Asay I need to sober up and Dlay low for a Awhile
They say "the Gknucklehead is a classic case of Dhopeless self denAial"

[Verse]
Now I'm Aold and decrepid, and miss the golden days
N.C.
A fleeting thing that passed me by somewhere in the haze
I should Atry to raise a garden, Dvote and volunAteer
Or get a Gmotorbike and a line of credit and Dget the hell out of Ahere
[Chorus]
But I'm Ctelling	the same old stories, Gscared of Dgetting Aold
CLivin' the same old stories, Gscared of Dgetting Aold
CStuck in the same old stories, Gscared of Dgetting Aold
[Outro]
A     D  E
A     G  A
A     D  E
