Why would you leave us for a song

Sleep with one eye waiting for you, 'til

D    A     B     E    F# 
Eyes close front door stumbling through

You should know better now

but you go anyhow

It may be the only constant

A                      A
A common law marriage, a spirited carriage

Momentum, moss and time spent lost

St. Mary´s calling from down the street

  D    A    B E   F# 
I feel warm chaos beckoning me

I´ve bedded down under stairs

Won´t you stay home tonight
