[Verse 1]
A
  The city looks pretty when you been indoors

                                             D
For 23 days I’ve ignored all your phone calls

    A
And everyone’s waiting when you get back home

                                                D
They don’t know where you been, why you gone so long

A
Friends treat you like a stranger and

                                                   D
Strangers treat you like their best friend, oh well

A
  Spare a thought for the ones that came before

                                              D
All in a daze bending backwards to reach your goal
[Chorus 1]
C         D     A
Sometimes I get sad

C        D        A
It’s not all that bad

C        D     A
One day, maybe never

     C    G A
I’ll come around
[Verse 2]
    A
The city takes pity on your injured soul

                                                   D
And heavenly prose ain’t enough good to fill that hole

A
Everyone’s soaked in animosity

                                                D
It’s vicious in winter, you never say what you mean

A
Friends treat you like a stranger and

                                                   D
Strangers treat you like their best friend, oh well

A
  Wakin’ up to another dismal day

                                    D
You got a ways to go, you oughta be grateful
[Chorus 2]
C         D     A
Sometimes I get mad

C        D       A
It’s not half as bad

C        D      A
Pull yourself together

    C    D    A
And just calm down
[Bridge] D A D
A                                 D
I’ll be what you want oh when you want it

A                          D
But I’ll never be what you need

A                              D
And the city looks pretty from where I’m standing
A E A [Outro] A G F#m D A G F#m D A G F#m D A G F#m D D C#m Bm A
