[Verse 1]
Am
It was 29 years in dog years
Am
since i've seen my little lady
C
See I needed some space and time
G
To kill all my highway thrills
Am
And now I'm back in her own little town
Am
I've been dry and clean and I'm ready to try
CAmEmCG
This love thing again and I will never move in any direction
FCGCEGC
But she laughed and said times have changed, and there ain't no bed for you here
[Chorus]
GFC
Just hit the bell with your elbow and come in from the rain
GFC
You can promise me nothing and I will do the same
AmGD
I don't need you to fight for me and I don't need you to cry
CEmAmGFGC
Just hit the bell with your elbow, yes, and come in with your hands up high
[Verse 2]

(Play chords for the first half of the verse, no lyrics.)
Am
I told her I've been through a lot out there
Am
I lost my chukka playboy boots in a river by the bend
CAm
I lost my barracuda jacket in a bet gone wrong
EmCG
But through it all I heard the birds whistling your name
FCGCEGC
She laughed and said you can sneeze in a basket, still ain't no bed for you here
[Chorus]
GFC
Just hit the bell with your elbow and come in from the rain
GFC
You can promise me nothing and I will do the same
AmGD
I don't need you to fight for me and I don't need you to cry

Just hit the bell with your elbow, yes, and come in with your hands up high
[Bridge 1]
G
With your pants down low (pants down low)

Pants down low (pants down low)

Keep your bootlaces, keep them high and tight (high and tight)

Pants down low (pants down low)

You can't hide in me tonight
FCG
You can't hide in me tonight
[Bridge 2]
FGCF
But did you say that you have no place to go
GC
Or that you had no place to stay?
FGCF
Did you say that you have no place to go
CGG7C
Which is it boy, 'cause it's cold outside, you either go or you stay
[Chorus]
GFC
Just hit the bell with your elbow and come in from the rain
GFC
You can promise me nothing and I will do the same
