Wandering down an empty street from down a lane

So I ran up to you

A                          G
I felt empty and confused
                        C               Em
I sat there with your clothes near me
A                               G
I reached up and grabbed a lamplight
                     C
Which fell and broke
                Chorus 1
Well the what a day (???)

A                           G
I stared through empty eyes
             C
Of lavender moon and I
Em
Far beyond your tears now
A            G                              C
Still outside in the mist, drenched to the bone
         alt Em
And you sang
              Chorus 1
Everything's all right

Lick
Chorus 2

A                               G
We'd walked through summer fields
                  C              alt Em                         Chorus 1
Live the life of sin (???), cry on hard walls together, we did everything

A                               G
Well at night we talked and talked
                      C              Em
Questioned what the future embraced
A                 G
Hugging perfect shapes all day
                Chorus 1
We'd lie and sleep in

Lick
Chorus 2

A
But now you've left and gone
G                   C              Em
And all I have are memories of you
A                         G
They return to me when I'm asleep
C
When dreams
alt Em
What I want to say was true (???)
