E Em
Monday morning I've been drinking with a friend
A
Spent the past week chasing heaven but
Am D
I just seem to descend
E Em
Into places I wish no one had to go
A
Guess I'm looking like I'm high on life
Am D
But I've never felt so low
[Pre Chorus]
Cmaj7 Bm7 Am7 Bm7
Only passing time just hoping to unwind
[Verse 2]
E Em
Late December only god knows where I've been
A
But I've heard the sign of witness
Am D
she's my document of sin
E Em
So before you say I act like someone else
A
Tell me what else I should do when
Am D
I'm still waiting for myself
[Pre Chorus 2]
Cmaj7 Bm7 Am7 Bm7
Only passing time just hoping to unwind
[Chorus]
E A/C# Am C/G
Cause it's a strange world and strangest of all is the
D/F# D G B7
Fact that I'm with you
E A/C# Am C/G
I've done some strange things and strangest of all
D/F#
are the things
D G F
I didn't do to end up with the
Em A
transatlantic blues

[Verse 3]
E Em
I've been drifting like the wind across the seas
A
Now I'm washed up on the same shores
Am D
Where the breeze once carried me
E Em
All I have left is every word I never said
A Am D
When I see you every one of them still echoes in my head
[Pre Chorus 3]
Cmaj7 Bm7 Am7 Bm7
Only passing time just hoping to unwind
[Chorus 2]
E A/C# Am C/G
Cause it's a strange world and strangest of all is the
D/F# D G B7

Em D Am7
I know it's a woman's world and lord knows that I had my share
Em D Am
I've been close to paradise but no one ever took me there
Em D Am
Against the chain and ended up in my own hell
Em D Am
Now I've finally got the time to realize how far I fell
[Interlude]

Well you broke me I can hardly breathe
Am D
Pour that magic potion over me

Come on kill me with your sweet caress

Help me come alive with every little bit
