Verse 1
I've got five (G major) minutes (D major) (G major) (D major) (E minor) to sneak a cigarette (G major) (Csus2)
Five minutes to myself
(D major) (G major) Back behind the screen door
of Andy's (E minor) luncheonette
And (G major) I ain't (Csus2) got time
to worry (D major) 'bout my health (G major)
My boss Andy (D major) says I smoke
(E minor) myself to death (G major) (Csus2)
Andy he reminds me some of you (D major)
(G major) Back when you were Romeo
(D major) and I (E minor) was Juliet (G major)

Verse 2
Now (G major) (E minor) I don't think too much about
(Csus2) you anymore (G major)
We weren't much more than kid (D major) s
It was nearly (E minor) twenty years ago I
(Csus2) shut and locked that door
Now I've got five (G major) minutes (E minor) (G major) (Csus2)
Not much time (D major) to reminisce
(G major)

Verse 3
(G major) Most nights I come
home from work and (D major) I pour (E minor) a glass of wine (G major)
Some (Csus2) times it's three
or four before I stop (D major)
(G major) And Jessie makes a sand (D major) wich if I
sleep (E minor) through suppertime (G major)
And she leaves (Csus2) me on the couch
(D major) to sleep it off (G major)
Now Jessie just turned 17 and she's
wild (E minor) as she can be (G major) (Csus2)
And there ain't nothin' I can do (D major)
Last (G major) weekend she ran off (D major) to meet
a boy (E minor) in Tennessee (G major) (Csus2)
Just like (D major) I used to run to you
(G major)
Verse 4
(E minor)
I gave her hell when she came
(Csus2) home this afternoon (G major)
Mascara runnin' down her face (D major)
Seems like (E minor) history repeats itself,
and (Csus2) it ain't up to you
And in five (G major) minutes (E minor) (G major) (Csus2)
(D major) Your whole life can change

Andy he's good to (G major) me,
(D major) and I can see (E minor) it in his eyes
(G major) (Csus2) He'd love to take your place (D major)
(G major) But somethin' deep inside (D major) me
just (E minor) withers up and dies (G major)
To make love (Csus2) to him and
only (D major) see your face
(G major) (D major)
Verse 6
(E minor) Somehow I've let myself go
gently (Csus2) down the stream
A (G major) fine example I have set (D major)
Between the work (E minor) ing and the livin' and
the ghost (Csus2) s that haunt my dreams
I've got five (G major) minutes (E minor) (Csus2) and I'm gonna smoke
(D major) this cigarette
