we left home when we was barely past eleventeen
D A
been back and fourth and all around through hell and rain
D G
i’ve loved you half of your life and ill keep on lovin you
D A D
but i can’t change and live the way you want me to
we spend a lot of time out on the highway
comin from some town we played along the way ss
after 30 years of knowing me the way you do | |
you know i cant change and live the way you want me to – i
chorus : but babe ,
A D
that red bandana tied around your auburn hair
A D
you look like you ought to be somebody’s wife somewhere
D G
you ain’t never going to be no bobby mcgee but youre tryin to
D A D
but i can’t change and live the way you want me to
every time you leave the stage i know you’ve had your fill
and i wonder why you grew up and why i never will
hey , i’m 41 today still going on 22
but i can’t change and live the way you want me to
chorus
i can’t change and live the way you want me to
