(Tom Petty)



In the middle of his life

He left his wife

And ran off to be bad

Boy, it was sad

But he bought a new car

Found a new bar

And went under another name

Created a whole new game



(Chorus)

And the days went by like paper in the wind

Everything changed, then changed again

It's hard to find a friend

It's hard to find a friend



Meanwhile then

His wife's boyfriend moved in and

Took over the house

Everybody was quiet as a mouse

And it changed their lives

Changed their plans

Slowly they grew apart

Boy, it would broke your heart



(Chorus)
