         E                          A
We left home when was barely past eleventeen,
     E                                   B
Been back and forth, all around through hell and rain.
      E                                         A
I've loved you half your life and I'll keep on lovin' you
    E                   B               E
But I can't change and live the way you want me to.
    E                             A
We spent alot of time out on the highway
E                                B
Comin' from some town we played along the way.
E                               A
Thirty years of knowin' me the way you do,
     E                       B                E
You know I can't change and live the way you want me to.
        B                            E
- That red bandana tied around her auburn hair,
     B                                  E
She looks like she outta be somebody's wife somewhere.
                                                   A
She ain't never gonna be no Bobby McGee but she's tryin' to.
E                   B                 E
I can't change and live the way she wants me to. -
     E                                       A
Everytime she leaves the stage I know she's had her fill.
    E                               B
I wonder why she grew up and why I never will.
     E                                 A
I'm fourty-one today, still goin' on twenty-two
    E                   B                E
But I can't change and live the way she wants me to.

                     B                E
We can't change and live the way she wants us to.
