Verse 1:
Bm D Got a message in my head A that the papers had all come Bm Richard Manuel is dead D and the daylight's comin' on A I've been wandering through the dark Bm (B) (C#) D now I'm standing on the lawn
Chorus:
A Bm D If I could give all my love to you A I could justify myself G D but I'm just not coming through A You're a pill to ease the pain G D of all the stupid things I do (C#) Bm I'm an anchor on the line G of a clock that tells the time A G D that is running out on you (play first 1/2 of intro riff over A G D)
Verse 2:
Bm D It was cold when I awoke A and the day was halfway done Bm Nearly spring in San Francisco D and I cannot feel the sun A You were sleeping next to me Bm (B) (C#) D but I knew that you'd be gone
Repeat Chorus
Lead-in to solo: e|------------------------------| B|------------------------------| G|------------------------------| D|------------------------------| A|------------------------------| E|----4~--5------4~--5-4-5-6~---|7

Bm D A E
Bm D A G D
Verse 3:
Bm D Take some time before you go A To think of Mondays coming down E and the people that you knew Bm and the ones that aren't around D You've been fading day to day Bm D I've been moving town to town
Repeat Chorus twice
(skip the intro riff between these repeats)
End with a variation on Riff 1 (it's a really easy variation)
