Standard (EADGBE)

Eighteen years in a traveling band

Seen a lot of one night stands

 And still I found myself so very much alone

And it took those years to find myself

Wasn't lookin' for no one else

 And then I found you girl

 But you were there all along

 And we'll spend each day like it's the last day of the rest of our lives

I'll be the king you'll be my wife

Gonna make it thru this thing called life

 Gonna raise these kids on our own

 The very best we can

And sixteen hours is a long, long time

When you gotta love that's on your mind

 Can you tell that I'm not right?

 I'm a little distraught

 And we'll spend each day like it's the last day of the rest of our lives

 Everyday we'll fall in love just a little more

 For the rest of our lives

Sittin' here in the county jail

Ain't no one to go my bail

I shoulda been there with you

For some sympathy and tea

And eighteen years in at traveling band

Seen a lot of one night stands

And still I found myself so very much alone
