C     G                   F
Palm trees in the burning sun
F             C        G            F
American passport, Puerto Rican rum
F               C               G              F
And you're just running from a war no one ever won
F              C             G        F
Your shoes are worn and your money is gone
        C             G               F
And you, don't even know what's going on
C             G                       F
It's hard to say how long you've been gone
           C           G            F
And your, skin is peeling in the sun
                           C  G  F
And you're never going back
           C     G     F
Oh you're never going back


[Verse 2]
        C            G                  F
Well the weed is brown and so are the girls
C                  G                       F
You always felt like you were lost in this world
         C                      G                 F
Until you stepped off that plane into the trade winds
           C           G            F
Turn your back on a world of confusion


[Chorus]
         C           G                          F
And you, feel like you're running on borrowed time
C        G              F
Victim of a victimless crime
               C           G                 F
And they say, God helps those who help themselves
                     C           G                        F
But he forgot about you, so you had to work it out for yourself


[Bridge]
          C   G   F   C   G   F
Alright


[Chorus]
         C           G                          F
And you, feel like you're running on borrowed time
C        G              F
Victim of a victimless crime
               C           G                 F
And they say, God helps those who help themselves
                     C           G                        F
But he forgot about you, so you had to work it out for yourself
