Am Fsus2 Monday morning comes a crawling in
C Em Am From another weekend choked with cigarettes and sin,
Fsus2 And I've been busy so much lately
C Em That every time I get some time to spend
Am I end up drunk or sleeping in.
Continues after the ad
Fsus2 And I miss you, you're busy too,
C Em We call each other up when we're messed up
Am And say we'll meet in the New Year,
Fsus2 C But it's perfectly clear we'll do no such thing
Em Come the spring. [Chorus]
G C F C G But when the evening casts it's shadows on the corners of my days,
C F C G And I am old and I am settled in the place where I will stay,
C F C G When my wandering meanderings have finally reached their end,
C F G C Whatever else may be, I will not forget my friends. [Riff]

Am Fsus2 C Friday evening barely even begins
Em Am Before my phone begins to ring with people asking where I am.
Fsus2 And I can't suppress a smile, we talk a while,
C Em Am But chances are that I am far away and so I'm phased out of the plan.
Fsus2 And that's how I miss out on another night,
C Em The kind of night where nothing really happens,
Am But everything goes down.
Fsus2 C And in the end I'm just a promise to pick up the phone
Em When I'm in town [Chorus]
G C F C G But when the evening casts it's shadows on the corners of my days,
C F C G And I am old and I am settled in the place where I will stay,
C F C G When my wandering meanderings have finally reached their end,
C F G [Riff] Whatever else may be, may my friends remember me. La's over [Riff] until end
