Just Like Old Times by Todd Snider




                 Just Like Old Times





D
There's a coke machine glowin through the parking lot
G||
Call it a room with a view
D
This was the best night of pool that I ever shot
G||
I made a lot of money too
G||                         A7
I was looking for some companyss
G||
In the weekly scene-i
A7                           G||
Seen an ad it just had to be you
A7
I hadn't seen you since New Orleans
A7
And I never did figure out where you ran off to

I know I looked bad the last time you saw me
But lately I been doing all right
I won a tournament last week in Oklahoma City
Hustled half of this town tonight
I got some cocaine if you want some
It's the best that I could find 
Hey we could just sit here and talk all night
If that big ol' guy out in the car don't mind

Chorus:
G||           D
Like old times
A7                          D
Screw off the top on a bottle of wine
G||                     D            A7
Living out our own kind of American dream
G||       D
Old times
A7                          D
Your goal was always the same as mine
G||                          D                 A7             D
You didn't want to throw a fishing line in that old main stream

You know I ain't expecting anybody but you
I don't know who this could be at the door
But I'm pretty sure that you got a clue
And I bet that you've been to this hotel before
Put the you-know-what in the bathroom but
Don't flush it down just yet
Put your pager in my suitcase
I'll get the window
You light a cigarette
It'll be like

Chorus:
Old times
Just like the old times
Living out our own kind of American dream
Old times
Your goal was always the same as mine
You didn't want to throw a fishing line in that old main stream

Bridge:
Em
No sir officer you don't understand
A7
We're just two old friends drinkin' wine
Em
I'm sure she is but that's not all she is
A7
She's also an old friend of mine
Em                                                       A7
I got her high school picture right here in my wallet - 1982
Em
No sir officer no offense taken
A7
You have a good night too

Good thing we didn't throw this away baby
Turn up that radio
I'm pretty sure that cop knew what we were up to
I guess he just decided to let us go
Don't make such a thing about that picture
That was just something I kept
Don't get all sentimental on me now girl
You haven't even told me what your new name is yet

Chorus:
Old times
Just like the old times
Living out our own kind of American dream
Old times
Your goal was always the same as mine
You didn't want to throw a fishing line in that old main stream
