Old Fashion Hat

C 
  summer went the way of spring
G
  winter's waiting in the wings
F
  and we haven't saved anything
C            G7
  but that's alright
C
  cause we already paid the rent
G
  there's still some money we haven't spent
F 
  go put on something different
C                  G7
  we're going out tonight

[Verse]
C
  I have loved you for so long
G
  even when I could only do you wrong
F
  go see if they have our song
C                     G7
  on the jukebox over there
C
  a dollar gets you seven plays
G
  I watch you through a smoky haze
F
  a secret smile on your face
C                 G7
  I'm sorry if I stare

[Chorus]
      Am                F
  but you look like a stranger
          C             G
  in that old-fashioned hat
      Am                      F
  and I've got a pocketful of change
      C                G
  and I don't wanna go home yet

[Verse]
C
  clearly I remember when
G
  I used to scratch my poems
F
  on the backs of other lovers in
C                    G7
  the darkness of my mind
C
  back before I made my home
G
  in the marrow of your bones
F
  now I know your figure like my own
C           G7
  even from behind

[Chorus]
      Am                F
  but you look like a stranger
          C             G
  in that old-fashioned hat
      Am                      F
  and I've got a pocketful of change
      C                G
  and I don't wanna go home yet

[Verse]
C
  hey and we'll be married soon
G
  we'll be dancing to this very tune
F
  then we'll have a honeymoon
C                     G7
  then we'll start to fight
C
  bring the tonic and the gin
G
  say what was your name again?
F
  stick another quarter in
C                  G7
  and stay with me tonight

 [Chorus]
      Am                F
  but you look like a stranger
          C             G
  in that old-fashioned hat
      Am                      F
  and I've got a pocketful of change
      C                G
  and I don't wanna go home yet
