Tattered Line Of String

      C                     Bm
We drained every dime
          C               Bm
In the lower East Side
              C                  
And you failed to catch the train 
         Bm               D
back to Queens
            C                  Bm
So you came to my room
                      C            
We did some things that we knew not
                            Bm
 to do
          C                Bm     
In the glow of the nights golden 
            D
hue


Chorus

                    C              
You've got a tattered line of 
        Bm
string
                    D
That you've tied 'round everything
                C                  
That you want to call your own
      Bm

         D
But it never seems to hold

Verse II

                 C             Bm
When we woke we agreed
                C                  
That we would not ever speak
  Bm

             C               Bm   
Of this night to anyone that we 
                   D
both knew
                        C          
And you said, "Every time we kiss
           Bm

        C                      
I felt something that could not 
                Bm
exist"
          C                       
And I confessed that I thought 
Bm                         D
that I felt it too


Chorus

                   C               
You've got a tattered line of 
       Bm
string
                    D
That you've tied 'round everything
                C                  
That you want to call your own
      Bm

         D
But it never seems to hold
