Stranded In Los Angeles

Intro DDGD DDGD

          D                      
She said, "There are things about 
             G                  D
you I don't really understand."
     Bm                            
I am drinking in the afternoon, got
 G            D
 whiskey on my breath.
        D                      
And as I walk through Greenwich 
                 G              
Village, with a suitcase full of 
 D
clothes,
     Bm                           
I am blinded by the afternoon and 
G              D
unsure where to go.
     Bm                           
I am blinded by the afternoon and 
G              D
unsure where to go.


         G                       
Will you come for me on days like 
           Bm
this when I am broken down?
                 G              
'Cause I've been strangled by an 
                  Bm
emptiness that's still choking me 
now.
       G                         
I have prayed for absolution that 
       Bm    A       G
won't ever come around,
          Bm                 A?   
So if you love me, won't you 
                    D
please forgive me now?


       D                         
Then I try to call my mother, but 
       G            D
she's not around to talk,
Continúa después del anuncio
     Bm                            
So I wander through the fading day,
 G            D
 oblivious and lost.
      D                      
Yes I know I'm getting older, 
         G                       D
chasing time that slips away.
         Bm                    
Point my headlights towards the 
                  G            D
interstate, it's time for my escape.
         Bm                    
Point my headlights towards the 
                  G            D
interstate, it's time for my escape.


     G                             
I am sorry for the things I've 
        Bm
done; don't try to let you down.
      G                          
In my dreams at night I hear your 
                Bm
voice, and I'm shaken by the sound.
        G                          
Now I'm stranded in Los Angeles and
 Bm          A      G
 you're all I think about.
          Bm                 A?   
So if you love me, won't you 
                    D
please forgive me now?


                 G                 
I hope there's a million stars 
  D
above you,
         G                         
And everything you need, I hope it 
D
finds you.
      G                          
Every breath you breathe, hope it 
       D
comes easy,
            A
I hope it's easy.


           D                       
I've got a picture in my wallet of 
  G             D
a girl I used to know,
     Bm                            
And another of my family, it's been
 G                       D
 too long since I've been home.
        D                        
Now I'm waiting on a train. Where 
          G           D
I'll end up, God only knows.
      Bm                           
Maybe I'll make my way back to her,
       G               D
 but I guess I probably won't.
      Bm                           
Maybe I'll make my way back to her,
       G               D
 but I guess I probably won't.


        G                          
You are somewhere far away from me;
     Bm
 I'm here all by myself.
            G                      
Through the space between the two 
      Bm
of us, wish I had something else.
           G                
'Cause I'd surrender up most 
               Bm      A      
anything if I thought it'd help 
     G
somehow.
          Bm                 A    
So if you love me, won't you 
            D
please forgive me now?
       Bm                 A    
If you love me, won't you please 
            D
forgive me now?
