Intro: G   Am   B7   C  G  
We’re Gdriving through the canyons
Singing songs from the sixties
The tAmelephone rang, she said,
“Babe, do you miss me?”
And D7ain’t it a shame not to love the one you’re Gwith
Well she Gspoke with the prettiest mouth
And she scorned me
She Amsharpened her teeth
And flashed them to warn me
SaidD7, "ain’t it a shame when you hate the one you Gloved"
And it couldn’t be mEme
It couldn’t be Amme
No, the B7man in your dreams
He Cdon’t look a thing like Gme
See I Gdated a rich girl
With a mother of pearl
Who paid Amrent in her high rise
The weight of the world
And D7ain’t it a shame when you’re exchangin’ all your brand new Ggifts
And after a Gnight on the floor,
She put the chain on her door
I woAmre out my welcome
I guess she got bored
'Cause she laD7id eyes on my brother and laid him across my Gbed
And it couldn’t be Emme
It couldn’t be Amme
No, the B7man in your dreams
He dCon’t look a thing like Gme
G Am B7 C G
Well Git sounds like rain
And here that’s a rare thing
Out Amhere in the desert,
We're stealing our water
From a D7hole in a mountain that flows to the affordable Ghomes
And from my Gfaucet it drips
So we'll clean up the messes
The Amothers have left us
Well I think they blessed us
There’s a D7chain on my door but I’m in love with the one I’m Gwith
And it couldn’t be Emme
It couldn’t be Amme
No, the B7man in your dreams
He Cdon’t look a thing like Gme
And it couldn’t be Emme
No, it couldn’t be Amme
No, the B7man in your dreams
He Cdon’t look a thing like Gme
