[Verse 1]
  E                         
I don't know what my baby's 
      A              E      A
Gonna say when I get home.
  E                              
I know I should have gone but the 
A                     E     A
Booze keeps a-flowin' on.
       E    A                       E    
But by now,   feel like standing on head, 
        A
Let the booze flow out of
   E           A*             
my ears. But I really, really, 
              E           A
Really should go 'cause I know that my
            E     A    E    A
baby's back home.
 

[Verse 2]
   E                        
My sweet woman of the dreams, 
       A                    E      A
Stop a-teasin' me with your smile.
  E                         A    
I gotta keep sober, keep my mind 
               E         A
Straight for a while.
       E   A                  E   
I once did   climb a mountain side,   
A
  did swim the silver-red
E        A*              
seas and once did caught 
    E             A
The moonbeams but now
                     E     A     E      A
I have flipped to my whim.

[Verse 3]
   E                          A      
My dear old Uncle Adam had it right, 
               E      A
Baby, from the start,
   E                        
he never did get married nor 
       A                     E        A
Did he break any poor girl's heart.
        E    A                   
All his life   worked his fingers 
       E              A
To the bones, then he jumped and he came
      E              A*                
Home stoned. But you couldn't really call 
       E          A
it his home and I wish
                     E    A   E    A
that I could be like him.
