G                        B7 
--There's nothing left inside me, honey 
Em      D         C 
You can call your own 
G                     B7

   Em         D          C 
No place that feels like home

[Refrão]
          C7 
Because we don't want to press our luck 
          G7 
And maybe make that well run dry 
   C7 
Ya know we both been betting on rain 
          G7 
But there ain't a cloud in the sky 
    C7 
And how can I convince you 
               G7 
That you'll be richer by yourself 
     C7 
Your good faith only makes me poor 
       G 
Please spend it someplace else

--How many tough miles --have we traveled 
     Em      D       C 
Like bandits side by side 
G                       B7 
--But now our boots are wearing thin 
              Em  D      C 
We're feeling so dissatisfied

We better leave, it all
