There's a Coke machine glowin' through the parking lot

Call it a room with a view

Was the best night of pool that I ever shot

A
Looking for some company
G
In the weekly "Scene"
Em D G A
Seen an ad it, just had to be you
A
Ain't seen you since New Orleans

And I never did figure out where you ran off to
D
I know I looked bad the last time you saw me
G
But lately I been doin' all right
D
Won a tournament last week in Oklahoma City

Hustled half of this town tonight
A G

We could just sit here and talk all night

If that big ol' guy out in the car don't mind

Screw off the top on a bottle of wine

Old times
A D
Your goal was always the same as mine
G D A D
You didn't want to throw a fishing line in that old main stream
Verse 2
D
You know I ain't expecting anybody but you
G
I don't know who that could be at the door
D
But I'm pretty sure that you got a clue
G
And I bet that you've been to this hotel before
A G
Put the "you-know-what" - In the bathroom
Em G
But don't flush it down just yet
A
Put your pager in my suitcase
A
I'll get the window
A
You light a cigarette
A
It'll be like ...

"No sir officer you don't understand
A
We're just two old friends drinkin' wine

She is also an old friend of mine
Em A
Got her high school picture right here in my wallet - 1982

No sir officer no offense taken

You have a good night, too"

Verse 3
D
Good thing we didn't throw this away, baby
G
Turn up that radio
D
I'm pretty sure that cop knew what we were up to
G
I guess he just decided to let us go
A G
Don't make such a thing about the picture

That's just something I kept
A
Don't get all sentimental on me now, girl
A
You haven't even told me what your new name is yet
