G A D
[Verse 1]
G A D G
The light in her bedroom as she kept the curtain closed
A D G
The shadow was cast as she was taking off her clothes
A D G
I stood on the sidewalk and looked up from below
A D
Oh, oh, oh
G A D G
Lightning strikes with the blankest stare, oh my god
A D G
And he answered my prayers, I was tired and confused
A D G
I had the scrapes and bruises, but
A D
She took a piece of my heart
[Chorus]
D
Walking downtown with nowhere to go
Bm
In the back of the aisle at the video store
A G
I got pulled back in by the undertow
(oh-oh oh)
D
Welcome to the bar, turns on the lights
Bm
You never know what could happen by the end of the night
A G
I got swept away when the tide got high
D Bm A G
Dreaming, dreaming, dreaming of a girl that I used to know
D Bm A G
Dreaming, dreaming, dreaming of a girl that I used to know
[Verse 2]
G A D G
A deer in the headlights, face pale as a ghost
A D G
Tongue-tied, she was dumbstruck and freezing as she froze
A D G
The shadow walked past just as the door began to close
A D
She took a piece of my heart
[Chorus]
D
Walking downtown with nowhere to go
Bm
In the back of the aisle at the video store
A G
I got pulled back in by the undertow
(oh-oh oh)
D
Welcome to the bar, turns on the lights
Bm
You never know what could happen by the end of the night
A G
I got swept away when the tide got high
D Bm A G
Dreaming, dreaming, dreaming of a girl that I used to know
D Bm A G
Dreaming, dreaming, dreaming of a girl that I used to know
(Instrumental break)
D
Woah, oh oh
Guess I'll be moving on
Wonder where it all went wrong
D
Walking downtown with nowhere to go
Bm
In the back of the aisle at the video store
A G
I got pulled back in by the undertow
(oh-oh oh)
D
Welcome to the bar, turns on the lights
Bm
You never know what could happen by the end of the night
A G
I got swept away when the tide got high
D Bm A G
Dreaming, dreaming, dreaming of a girl that I used to know
D Bm A G
Dreaming, dreaming, dreaming of a girl that I used to know
D Bm A G
Dreaming, dreaming, dreaming of a girl that I used to know
D Bm A G
Dreaming, dreaming, dreaming of a girl that I used to know
D Bm A
G
She's just a girl that I used to know
