      Bb
I’m beginning to hear voices and there’s no one around

          Bb
Well, I’m all used up and the fields have turned brown

          Bb
I went to church on Sunday and she passed by

         Bb
While my love for her is taking such a long time to die

    Eaug       Eb                 Bb
I’m waist deep, waist deep in the mist

            Eaug        Eb             Bb
It’s almost like, almost like I don’t exist

          Bb
Well, the walls of pride are high and wide

Bb
Can’t see over to the other side

            Bb
It’s such a sad thing to see beauty decay

     Bb
It’s sadder still to feel your heart torn away

    Eaug      Eb                  Bb
One look at you and I’m out of control

Like the universe has swallowed me whole

        Bb
There’s too many people, too many to recall

               Bb
I thought some of ’m were friends of mine, I was wrong about ’m all

          Bb
Well, the road is rocky and the hillside’s mud

   Bb
Up over my head nothing but clouds of blood

  Eaug          Eb                  Bb
I found my world, found my world in you

        Bb
Oh, the winds in Chicago have torn me to shreds

  Bb
Reality has always had too many heads

Some things last longer than you think they will

Bb
Some kind of things you can never kill
