[Intro]
Em A x2
[Verse 1]
D A He gets close, but I choke F#m Bm Take your shit, take your clothes A G And get out of my home A I want you to love me Em Or I want you long gone A You say your real name is John
[Verse 2]
D Hey, thanks John A F#m Go sing songs, go rock on Bm A G Roll your crew on down the road A To the next sold out show Em Think you can get up above me? A Well, I want you to know
[Verse 3]
G A You're a figure of fun to everyone F#m Bm A G 'Neath the lone star, neon blue broken sign A They wish they were you Em Like I wish you were mine A What a dumb thing to do
[Verse 4]
G A How come I shout "Goodbye" F#m Bm A When god knows I just want to G D Make this white lie big enough A Em To climb inside with you
[Instrumental]
A Em A
[Verse 5]
D A Another day, lost and gone F#m Bm A G Clipping pages from the news for the senator's son A Well, he just strolls through the lobby Em And glad-hands everyone A Another day, tossed and done
[Verse 6]
D A I go home, take off clothes F#m Bm A G Smoke a bowl, watch a whole TV movie A I was supposed to be writing Em The most beautiful poems A And completely revealing Em Divine mysteries up close A I can't say that I'm feeling Em All that much at all A At 27 years old
[Verse 7]
G A I'm discussed with desire by the guys who conspire F#m Bm A G At the only decent bar in town A And they drink MGD's Em And they wish they had me A Like I wish I had fire Em What a sad way to be A What a girl who got tired
[Verse 8]
G A F#m Bm A So, I wonder who you got your hooks in tonight G D A Was she happy to be hooked and on your arm?
Did she feel alive?
Em A x4 Her head all light
