  Asus4
I know that you're sad

  Asus4
I know that you're lonely

                        E    A
you lie awake 'till way past when

  Asus4
I want you to know
that I'm leaving you only
                                  E A
'cause I might not get the chance a-gain.
Chorus:
    Asus4
I'm cold and I'm tired
and I can't stop coughing
                        E          A
long enough to tell you all of the news

    Asus4
I'd like to tell you
that I'll see you more often
                  E      A
often is a word I seldom use

Asus4             E      A
often is a word I seldom use.

Tell me, where did the weekend go?

A
Tell me, where did the weekend go?

A
Went like thunder, felt like snow.

A
Went like thunder, felt like snow.
You must think my life's a circus watching me laughing and slapping my thighs how'd ya like to die in the house of mirrors with nobody around to close your eyes. (Repeat Chorus) Going down to the Greyhound station going back home and get what's mine got me a date with the ten o'clock special gonna be there at a quarter to nine. (Repeat Chorus)
