[Intro]

C                       Fsus2

[Verse 1]

C                       Fsus2
Out from my window, the people are passing on by
C                       Fsus2
I hear them complain, but I know that they don't even try
Am             G/B      F/C               G/D   C
And the lights down on main street don't shine like they used to
Am               G/B           F/C      G/D          C
I'm thinking of nothing but spending a lifetime with you

[Verse 2]

C                       Fsus2
You know that I love you, you know that I wait by your door
C                       Fsus2
You know how I'm feeling, so I won't have to feel it no more
Am      G/B     F/C     G/D     C/E
But nobody could ever love you like I can
Am      G/B     F/C     G/D     C
Honey someday you'll wake up and maybe you'll understand

[Verse 3]

C                       Fsus2
Now I got a friend of a friend who drives a nice car
C                       Fsus2
And I got acquaintances down at the neighborhood bar
Am      G/B     F       G/D     C
And I got some women; they stop on by my home
Am      G/B     F       G/D     C
But somehow I always wake up each morning alone

[Bridge 1]

Am
And the train that I ride has nothing aside
Em
From the Phantom Conductor with a dog at his side
F
And the ghost of a weeping, weddingless bride
G/B
Who should have been married but never arrived
Am
And I see through the windows like I see through the lies
Em
Like I see through every useless disguise that
F                            G/B
Everyone wears but everyone swears that they don't
C  Am     Em          F       G/D          C
Ah but don't mind me baby, I'm only dying slow


[Verse 4]

C                       Fsus2
I'm trying so hard just to forget about you
C                       Fsus2
I try not to care about anything that you do
Am      G/B     F       G/D     C
But four in the morning and I just can't sleep
Am      G/B     F       G/D     C
The pills ain't workin and I can't get no relief

[Verse 5]

C                       Fsus2
And I feel like a hound dog moaning along with the rain
C                       Fsus2
Any day now, the jukebox could drive me insane
Am      G/B     F       G/D     C
There's an old man in the corner that nobody knows
Am      G/B     F       G/D     C
He says: laugh while you can cause someday you'll be wearing my clothes

[Verse 6]

C                       Fsus2
But I guess I can't tell you what you don't already know
C                       Fsus2
And I ain't no prophet, my landlord he told me so
Am      G/B     F       G/D     C
But my mind is a burning ring of Saturn Flame
Am      G/B     F       G/D     C
And I feel things inside that I just can't explain


[Bridge 2]

Am
I know that you know how to fake and to take what
Em
You break what you burn what you never did learn
F
Then you turn and you say that you've made a mistake
G/B
As your head starts to spin and your heart starts to ache
Am
But all that you make will be all that you get
Em
When the curtain goes down, but don't you forget
F                            G/B
That all your regret is a cheap silhouette and that's all
C  Am     Em          F       G/D            C
Ah but don't mind me baby, I'm only dying slow

[Verse 7]

C                       Fsus2
I met a gambler who did nothing but lose all day
C                       Fsus2
He had love in his hands but he let her slip away
Am      G/B     F             G/D       C
And all he ever wanted was to give her a win
Am      G/B     F       G/D     C
But all she ever really wanted was him
