Chords

[Intro] D G D G [Verse 1]
D                          A
I blew the dust out of the corners

G                           Bm
Threw some dead wood on the fire

D                  A
Tuned the radio to silence

G                          D
Watched the evening sun expire

Bm                             F#m
Should have called you up this morning

G                      Em
But I'm such a fool at times

D                         A
I still search my shaving mirror

C       G                  D
Looking for your face with mine
[Chorus]
           G                   A
     And I can't stay alone tonight

     G                        D
     Can't let another day go by

               Bm
     Why is it always this way?

     Em                         A
     Time never seems to really fly

         G                          A
     And time is never really on my side

           G                   F#m   Bm
     And I can't stay alone tonight

     Em                             A
     Things have to change and they might

           G            A      D
     But I can't stay alone tonight
[Verse 2]
D                       A
Chalk up one more crazy notion

G                   Bm
Imagination running wild

D                     A
But if I needed confirmation

G                            D
I would have gone that extra mile

Bm                            F#m
You're the last chance on the highway

G                        Em
I'm that open stretch of road

D                      A
You're the diner in my rear-view

C        G              D
A cup of coffee getting cold
[Chorus]
           G                   A
     And I can't stay alone tonight

     G                        D
     Can't let another day go by

               Bm
     Why is it always this way?

     Em                         A
     Time never seems to really fly

         G                          A
     And time is never really on my side

           G                   F#m   Bm
     And I can't stay alone tonight

     Em                             A
     Things have to change and they might

           G            A      D
     But I can't stay alone tonight
[Bridge]
Bb                          Dm
Bruised in this cold war of words

              C                    F
We've come undone two loose ends alone

    Bb                            Dm
Possessed by that curse you've endured

                 Gm                          Asus4  A
The spell that I cast couldn't make you come home
[Chorus]
           G                   A
     And I can't stay alone tonight

     G                        D
     Can't let another day go by

               Bm
     Why is it always this way?

     Em                         A
     Time never seems to really fly

         G                          A
     And time is never really on my side

           G                   F#m   Bm
     And I can't stay alone tonight

     Em                             A
     Things have to change and they might

           G            A      D
     But I can't stay alone tonight

      Em                             A
     Things have to change and they might

           G            A      D
     But I can't stay alone tonight
[Outro] D G D A D
