About the Song
Three days of snow in Birmingham
Thought you would wonder where I am
Rang our number all night long
It`s no comfort on the telephone
Ran out & caught a midnight flight
Thought a little love would make everything all right
The landlord said "You moved away"
And left me all your bills to pay"
Look out baby, you might have made your move too soon
(up 3) A - - - (4x) D7 - - - / A - - - / E7 - D7 - A - - -
Left me with a Keno card
This life in Vegas sure ain`t hard
I ran it up to about 50 grand
Cashed it in & held it in my hand
That kind of word can get around
And make a lost love come up found
I hear you knocking baby at my door
But you know you ain`t living here no more
It`s too bad: I think you made your move too soon
I`ve been from Spain to Tokyo
From Africa to Ohio
I never tried to make the news
I`m just a man who plays the blues
I take my lovin` everywhere
I came back & they still care you know
One love ahead, one love behind
One in my arms & one on my mind
It`s one thing baby I never make my move too soon
