D                               Dsus4
I've got somethin' here, it's a chance

      Dsus4/C              Dsus4/B
I'm'a make my changes as I go and the city lights

D              Dsus4
Dance away the stars

       Dsus4/C           Dsus4/B        D                    Dsus4
I have met all kinds of reasons why the seasons leave their scars

     Dsus4/C          Dsus4/B     D                Dsus4
I am thin as cinnamon and tarnish like these metal cars

     Dsus4/C          Dsus4/B      D     D
That drive along the rivers of the tar

             D           Dsus4
I am weatherproof as the rain

         Dsus4/C      Dsus4/B     D             Dsus4
And I've fooled every lover into drinkin' up my pain

     Dsus4/C       Dsus4/B     D              Dsus4
I am hangin by the edges of my name, but I am warm

    Dsus4/C      Dsus4/B           D       D
So comfortable forgetting bout the storm

You said a house is a tomb

          D           Dsus4
I'm going back to the lake

     Dsus4/C           Dsus4/B
This time of year it's frozen through

      D            Dsus4
Aint nothing gonna break

          Dsus4/C            Dsus4/B

I used to spend my time

Before workin', before leavin, before wine
