[Verse 1]
          Em    Cadd9   Dsus4       A7sus4
There’s a harvest      each Saturday night
       Em          Cadd9       Dsus4      D      A7sus4
At the bars filled with perfume and hitching a ride
Em     Cadd9              Dsus4  D    A7sus4
A place you can stand for one    night      and get gone
Em     Cadd9              Dsus4  D    A7sus4
              Em        Cadd9    Dsus4       A7sus4
And It’s clear this conversation ain’t doing a thing
              Em   Cadd9          Dsus4  D  A7sus4
Cause these boys only listen to me when  I  sing
Em    Cadd9                Dsus4    D   A7sus4
  And I don’t feel like singing tonight
        Cadd9
All the same songs
[Chorus]

Girl could get lost    tonight

I’m finding every reason to be gone

Nothing here to hold on to

 The situation’s always the same

You got your wolves in their clothes whispering Hol- ly-  wood’s name
Em         Cadd9                  Dsus4 D   A7sus4
  Stealing   gold from the silver they  see

But it’s not me
