[Verse 1]
G
Let me die out in the boons
C Em
It took me thirteen years to bloom
D
They broke up, but he's alright
C
We'll be in town till late tonight
I'm dyin' in the boons
G C
And I hate a hungry crowd
Em
Worst of 'em all talk the loudest
D
I guess I'll die out here
C
With a hammer and a beer
G
Just dyin' in the boons
[Chorus]
Em G C G
So leave me out of that talk downtown
Em G C
I have found everything I'll ever need
G Em G C
Real deep
G Em
In the boons
G C G
[Verse 2]
G
I met a girl deep in the city
C
She said she don't mind sittin' with me
Em D
I let my troubles float away
C
I had myself a simple day
G
Just dyin' in the boons
C
And how I miss the quickstop line
Em
They say hello every time
No concern for politics
D C
Come on home, I'll check for ticks
Love me gently in the boons
G C
And why does everyone I know
Em
Have somewhere else to go?
D
Won't you look up from your hands?
C
Let's be still while we still can
G
Stay a while out, in the boons
[Chorus]
Em G C G
So leave me out of that talk downtown
Em G C
I have found everything I'll ever need
G Em G C
Real deep
G Em G C G
In the boons
[Outro]
G
Let me die out in the boons
C Em
It took me thirteen years to bloom
D
I'm beat up, but I'm alright
C
I'll be in town 'til late tonight
G
Just dyin' in the boons
