C
So I wonder how she's doing

G
I hate it when the rumors fly

 Dm 		      Am
They give off such a strange sense of mission

 F			   G
Wing your helplessness on high

C
But she would never run from strangers

G
She sang alone like a bell will toll

Dm	      Am
Way above the clang and the clatter

F			 G
Out of fear of her demon soul
[repeat 4 bars instrumental line=bar ]
C
Maybe none of this is my business

G
And none of what I hear is true

Dm	      Am
I am far from mint condition

F		      G
Circulation's hard on you
CHORUS
C
Hold tight, hang tough

G
Love's not enough

Dm		Am
To keep you off that stuff

F        G
To save you

F
Hold tight, hang tough

Am7
Love's not enough

Dm		     Am
To keep you off that stuff

    F    G   C
To save you now

C
He could always find the holes in the bottles

G
Even with a blindfold on

Dm	       Am
Never kept his seat on the wagon

F		   G
Rolling off like a rolling stone

C
Blue chalk between his fingers

 G
Hustling a poolroom song

Dm		 Am
He always kept a line for the singers

F		 G
Pointing his cue right from wrong
