For You

(F  Am  Bb  C  Dm)

F                  Am       Bb   
Princess cards she sends me with 
C     Dm
her regards
    Gm                 Dm         
Oh, barroom eyes shine vacancy to 
Bb                     C
see her you gotta look hard
F               Am             
Wounded deep in battle I stand 
Bb                C         Dm
stuffed like some soldier undaunted
       Gm                  Dm     
To her Cheshire smile I'll stand 
             Bb         C     Bb  Am
on file she's all I ever wanted
Gm      Bb            C         
But you let your blue walls get 
       F            Am
in the way of these facts
       Bb             C       F  
Honey, get your carpetbaggers off
    Am
 my back
    Bb                    C       
You wouldn't even give me time to 
F        Am
cover my tracks
         Csus4                     
You said here's your mirror and 
  C
your ball and jacks
    Csus4                   C     
But they're not what I came for 
      Csus4             C
and I'm sure you see that too

           Dm       Am   Gm      
I came for you, for you, I came 
   Bb   C       Dm
for you, but you did not need my 
urgency
                    Am   Gm       
I came for you, for you, I came 
  Bb   C        Dm
for you, but your life was one long 
emergency
         Fsus4              F     
and your cloud line urges me and 
  Fsus4               F  Dm C
my electric surges free


F             Am             Bb 
Crawl into my ambulance your 
      C       Dm
pulse is getting weak
      Gm                Dm        
Oh, reveal yourself all now to me 
           Bb                      
girl while you've got the strength 
   C
to speak
              F                  
Cause they're waiting for you at 
Am       Bb         C      Dm
Bellevue with their oxygen masks

    Gm              Dm            
But I could give it all to you now
    Bb             C  Bb  Am
 if only you could ask
Gm        Bb            C       
And don't call for your surgeon 
     F                Am
even he says it's too late
              Bb         C        
It's not your lungs this time it's
      F                     Am
 your heart that holds your fate
      Bb         C             F 
Don't give me my money, honey, I 
              Am
don't want it back
             Csus4             
You and your pony face and your 
 C
Union Jack
     Csus4                     C
Well take your local joker and teach
 him how to act
  Csus4                           
I swear I was never that way even 
C
when I really cracked
Csus4              C             
Didn't you think I knew that you 
     Dm            Am       
were born with the power of a 
  Gm  Bb
locomotive
C       Dm
Able to leap tall buildings in a 
single bound
                    Am          
And your Chelsea suicide with no 
   Gm     Bb
apparent motive
C         Dm
You could laugh and cry in a single 
sound

SOLO:  Fsus4  F  Fsus4  F

         C                         
And your strength is devastating in
     Bb                F
 the face of all these odds
  C                                
Remember how I kept you waiting 
         Bb                C
when it was my turn to be the God

    F                  Am         
Ah, you were not quite half so 
          Bb        C             
proud when I found you broken on the
Dm
 beach
      Gm                  Dm      
Oh, remember how I poured salt on 
                Bb              
your tongue and hung just out of 
 C
reach
        F                   
And the band they played the 
 Am                  Bb  C       
homecoming theme as I caressed 
    Dm
your cheek
           Gm             Dm      
Yeah, that ragged, jagged melody 
         Bb                  C    
she still clings to me like a 
Bb  Am
leech
Gm       Bb                     
But that medal you wore on your 
C            F          Am
chest always got in the way
       Bb                 C       
Like a little girl with a trophy 
  F               Am
so soft to buy her way
        Csus4                      
We were both hitchhikers but you 
       C
had your ear tuned to the roar
        Csus4                      
Of some metal tempered engine on an
 C
 alien distant shore
       Csus4                       
So you left to find a better reason
          C
 than the one we were living for
                  Csus4           
And it's not that nursery mouth I 
C
came back for
             Csus4         
And it's not the way you're 
           C
stretched out on the floor
           Csus4                   
cause I've broken all your windows 
         C
and I've rammed through all your 
doors
    Csus4                  C
And who am I to ask you to lick my 
sores
    Csus4                  C
And you should know that's true

C Bb   C   Dm       Am   Gm  
I came for you, for you, I 
       Bb   C       Dm
came for you, but you did not need 
my urgency
                    Am   Gm       
I came for you, for you, I came 
  Bb   C        Dm
for you, but your life was one long 
emergency
         Fsus4              F     
and your cloud line urges me and 
  Fsus4               F
my electric surges free
