Berkeley Pier

G Gb F E Eb

[Verse]
                      Ab                        Cm        F
I guess sometimes I'm lucky when I go for whole days at a time
Db                              Eb
without thinking about you, and ask myself why,
                    Ab                              Cm                F
but then I find I'm traveling, traveling down, that same old piece of road
    Db                  Eb
and wind up down by the water

[Chorus]
Fm                       Db           Eb
Whatever happened to our walls on the pier?
C     Db           Eb
I cry myself alone all the way down to the end,
Fm                        Eb
I drink my bottle dry and heave it across
                      C        Db           Eb
the bay, to the city, smashin' outside your door.

[Verse]
                      Ab                           Cm        F
Oh now there goes the Romeo, hand in hand with his punk rock Juliet,
     Db                          Eb
they remind me of two people I'm trying to forget,
                       Ab                         Cm           F
I can hear their sweet nothings on the wind, as I hurry to get by,
             Db           Eb
diverting my gaze, to the Oakland Bay Bridge.

[Chorus]
Fm                       Db           Eb
Whatever happened to our walls on the pier?
C     Db           Eb
I cry myself alone all the way down to the end,
Fm                        Eb
I drink my bottle dry and heave it across
                      C        Db           Eb
the bay, to the city, smashin' outside your door.

[Bridge]
Db                        Ab                     Gb
(Could that be you honey, way over on that side? Flashin' a
G             Ab              Eb Db                        Ab
signal to me, down by Pier 39,   'cause if I only knew, I'd jump in that
                             F        Gb    Eb
water and swim right across, drowning in my relief).

[Verse]
                  Ab                           Cm                             F
Maybe I should be warning them, should I say, "Don't do something that you'll regret.
Db                              Eb
Now you have no recollection of heartbreak you don't have yet."
                     Ab                           Cm                F
I could give them an arful, but I know, they must find out on their own,
        Db                                    Eb
and the thought of that is chilling me to the bone.

[Chorus]
Fm                       Db           Eb
Whatever happened to our walls on the pier?
C     Db           Eb
I cry myself alone all the way down to the end,
Fm                        Eb
I drink my bottle dry and heave it across
                      C        Db           Eb
the bay, to the city, smashin' outside your door.
