G                   D         F            C
I was wasted in the afternoon, waiting on a train

G            D                   F                C
I woke up in pieces and Elisabeth, had disappeared again

G               D            F                   C
I wish you were inside of me, I hope that you're ok

G                     D        F                C
I hope you're resting quietly, I just wanted to say
[Chorus]
G     D
Good, goodnight, Elisabeth

F                     C
Goodnight, Elisabeth, goodnight

G     D
Good, goodnight, Elisabeth

[Verse 2]
G                 D          F                C
We couldn't all be cowboys, so some of us are clowns

G              D
Some of us are dancers on the midway

F            C
We roam from town to town

G                D     F                 C
I hope that everybody, can find a little flame

          G                           D
And me I, say my prayers, then I just light myself on fire

      F                         C
And I walk out on the wire once again

         G
And I said
[Chorus]
G     D
Good, goodnight, Elisabeth

F                     C
Goodnight, Elisabeth, goodnight

G     D
Good, goodnight, Elisabeth

F                     C
Goodnight, Elisabeth, goodnight

G                     D           F                       C
If you wrap yourself in daffodils, I will wrap myself in pain

G                          D
And if you're the queen of California

      F                    C
Baby, I am the king of the rain

           G
And I said

Cause I'm all alone, you ain't coming home

          F                      C
We settle down, down, down, into bones

           G                    D
I said I'm all alone, you ain't comin home

               F                      C
We just settle down, down, down, into bones
