[Verse 1]
C Mary, this station is playing every sad song
Am I remember like we were alive
C I heard and sung them all from inside of these walls
Am In a prison cell, where we spent those nights
C And they burned up the diner where I always used to find her
Am Licking young boys blood from her claws
C And I learned about the blues from this kitten I knew
Am Her hair was raven and her heart was like a tomb [Pre-chorus] Guitar 1
F G My heart's like a wound [Chorus]
Am F I saw tail lights last night in a
C G dream about my first wife
Am F C Everybody leaves and I'd expect
G as much from you
Am F I saw tail lights last night in a
C G dream about my old life
Continues after the ad
Am F C Everybody leaves, so why, why
G C wouldn't you? [Verse 2]
C Mary, I worried and stalled every night of my life
Am Better safe than making the party
C And I never had a good time, I sat my bedside,
Am With papers and poetry about Estella [Pre-chorus 2] Guitar 1
F G With great expectations, we
F G had the greatest expectations [Chorus]
Am F I saw tail lights last night in a
C G dream about my first wife
Am F C Everybody leaves and I'd expect
G as much from you
Am F I saw tail lights last night in a
C G dream about my whole life
Am F C Everybody leaves, so why, why
G C wouldn't you? [Bridge]
