I Dont Care Anymore

Dm I used to pull my britches on with just one thing in mind A# Make the girls believe that I'm the last one of my kind Dm Silver toe tips on my boots and a mullet head of hair A# Designed to walk into the room and make somebody stare Dm A# But I don't care anymore if I don't stand out in a crowd Dm A# I was better off before I tried to make my mother proud D I came to town a dreaming I could make my mark in spades A# Forty odd years later all my best cards have been played Dm Well it's a hard knock situation when the accolades bestowed A# On your every last creation cries out middle of the road Dm A# But I don't care anymore, about the fortune or the fame Dm A# I was better off before, I tried to make myself a name Gsus All the money that I blew through like some boot black off the farm Dm Could not have vanished quicker if I'd shot it in my arm Gsus Some so and so says don't you know the limit is the sky Am Next thing I remember I'm unlearning how to fly Dm But I don't care anymore A# Dm A# Gsus All those party dolls and favors that I savored from day one Dm Add up to next to nothing after all is said and done Gsus A real friend tried to tell me man with all respect for you Am The time to put away these things is long since overdue Dm If indeed I do get lonesome in my mansion on the hill A# There's this neighbor's wife I covet for her beauty and her skill Dm The way she puts herself together sleek in vagabond couture A# Makes each mailbox conversation one more heartache to endure Dm A# But I don't care anymore, who does what and why Dm A# I was better off before, when I was just another guy Dm I've been lied on, spied on, cried on, tried on, taken for a ride you bet A# Fracked, cracked, smacked, jack, what you see is what you get Dm I've been spit at, hit at, quit at, shit at, shouldn't hurt a bit at, what I'm trying to get at A# Fool me once shame on me, fool me twice and put the blame on Dm A# I don't care anymore Dm A# No I don't care anymore
