Lyrics and Chords
[Intro]

G5  D5  Em  C x2


[Verse]

G5    D5                Em     C
   I heard you crying loud
G5          D5         Em     C
  all the way across town
            G5                  D5
You've been searching for that someone
         Em              C
and it's me out on the prowl
    G5            D5         Em           C
As you sit around feeling sorry for yourself

G5      D5              Em    C
  Well D5on't G5et lonely now
G5     D5               Em    C
  And dry your whining eyes
         G5               D5
I'm just roaming for the moment
         Em                     C
Sleazin' my back yard so don't get
G5               D5                   Em        C
so uptight you been thinking about ditching me


[Chorus]

A                          C
    No time to search the world around.
A                                 C
    Cause you know where I'll be found

    When I come around


[Instrumental]

G5  D5  Em  C
G5  D5  Em  C


[Verse]

G5    D5             Em     C
  I heard it all before
G5     D5                   Em     C
  So don't knock D5own my door
       G5           D5         Em            C
I'm a loser and a user so I D5on't need no accuser
    G5               D5              Em          C
to try and slag me down because I know you're right
G5    D5              Em    C
  So go do what you like
G5       D5             Em   C
  Make sure you do it wise
         G5                  D5
You may find  out that your selfdoubt
        Em             C
means nothing was ever there
     G5                D5
You can't go forcing something
         Em       C
if it's just not rig5ht


[Chorus]

A                          C
    No time to search the world around.
A                                 C
    Cause you know where I'll be found

    When I come around
