VERSE 1
Em G Em
Good old horseshoes
G Em
Oh your band of gold
G Em
It was back in those golden days
G
That they put the world on hold
A Em A
I never looked to them
Em
And they never looked to me
G
for company
Em G
Special they would never be
Em G Em
The outcome we had yet to see
VERSE 2
Em G Em
This was twelve years ago
G Em
And here's what happened next
G Em
Some of us got out of there
G
And then some stood the test
A Em A
To stay close to your own thing
Em
That is if you have anything
G Em
Except gamling for a wedding ring
G Em
To stay out on the right wing
G Em
Well that never was my thing
VERSE 3
A
When you're alright
Dsus2 A
Everyone wants to be near you
Dsus2
They use your full name
A
And they wanna do what you do
Dsus2
They stay in your footsteps
A
And they live their lives through you
Dsus2
And then if you don't move
Em
They go follow someone new
A
Well you never did impress me
Em A Asus2 A Asus2
And I never did much need your company
VERSE 4
A Dsus2 A
So you'll never get to shake anyone's hand over here
Dsus2 A
And ain't it real clear that you're not getting nothing
Dsus2 A Dsus2
For picking on my friends back when we were nothing
Em A Asus2
So put your hands in your pockets
Em A Asus2 A Asus2 A Asus2
And slide out of here
Em G Em G Em G Em G Em
Good old horseshoes
