C            C               Am   F              C
She just wanders around, unaffected by
    C              Am  F               C
the winter winds and she'll pretend that
            C      Am   F             C
shes somewhere else, so far and clear
      C               Am

now that saturday is gone
C            C                 Am    F
sometimes he thinks that hes on his way
          C    C    Am
but i can see 
          F
that his break lights are on

Chorus:
C            C               Am   F              C
He just wanders around, unaffected by
    C              Am  F                   C
the winter winds and he'll pretend that
      C              Am   F             C
he's somewhere else, so far and clear
      C               Am 
about two thousand miles from here


        C               C     
such a tough enchilada filled up with nada
Am                    F                   C    C   Am F
giving what she gotta give to get a dollar bill
        C                    C  
used to be a limber chicken, times a been a ticking
Am                      F
nows shes finger licking to the man
         C                   C  
with the money in his pocket flying in his rocket
Am                     F                C     C   Am 
only stopping by on his way to a better world
      F                      C C   Am
if taylor finds a better world
    F                     C
then taylor's gonna run away
