As recorded by the Cowboy Junkies (From the 1996 Album LAY IT DOWN) [Intro] G Bm G A Bm A G [Verse 1]
    Bm
The stillness here

             G                 A
Like what he sometimes finds inside her

Bm              A                     G
Hits so hard it can steal your breath forever

   Bm
He sometimes wonders

       G                    A
Is the sum of their lives together

Bm                       A              G
Him on the floor and her lost to a mind in tatters
[Chorus]
                E                            G
These days he's drinking for the pleasure of falling

         E                              G
And he's falling for the pleasure of pretending

           E                     G
That she's sitting by the window waiting

                Bm      G  A    Bm  A  G
For him to come calling
[Verse 2]
   Bm                  G                A
If I could fix me up a week of twilight hours

     Bm
We'd sit on the point

              A               G
And watch the sun continually flounder

Bm                       G                 A
Bathed in gold we'd plug into some kind of power

       Bm
And connect with those days

       A                     G
Back before all of this went sour
[Chorus]
           E                            G
'Cause I'm drinking for the pleasure of falling

        E                              G
And I'm falling for the pleasure of pretending

            E                     G
That you're sitting by the window waiting

               Bm      G  A    Bm  A  G
For me to come calling
[Verse 3]
Bm                   G               A
Odd how the darkness always makes us whisper

             Bm
And with the last of the sun

        A                        G
You can feel the approach of the winter

Bm                      G
Now is the time of each day

                   A
That I desperately miss her

    Bm                        A                G
I suppose I will learn how to live my life without her
[Chorus]
          E                            G
So you're drinking for the pleasure of falling

           E                              G
And you're falling for the pleasure of pretending

         E                     G
That I'm sitting by the window waiting

                Bm      G  Bm
For you to come calling
[Outro]
C               Bm      G  Bm
For you to come calling

C               Bm      G  Bm
For you to come calling

C               Bm      G  Bm  C  Bm  G
For you to come calling
