[Intro]
Em La la la la la la la C La la la la la la la Em La la la la la la la C La la la la la la la la la
[Verse]
G Em Couple young girls went sailing down A1A C D To the arms of Florida sailing down a highway Em C Singing their heads off, tainted by the Holy Ghosts G D Flying in from the ocean, driving with their eyes closed
[Chorus]
C D Em The night wants to kiss you deep, and be on his way C D G D Pretend he don't know you the very next day C Em Isn't it hard sometimes, isn't it lonely C D Em How I still hang around here when there's nothing to hold me
[Verse]
G Em You slide down into the sea from twelve hours on your feet C D And get the tide to wash you away, thousands and thousands of days Em C And someone you never meet signs a check you get every week G D You try and still can't forget all the strangers that you have met
[Chorus]
C D Em The night never owed you nothing anyway C D G D Makes promises that he never intends to keep every day C Em Isn't it hard sometimes, isn't it lonely C D Em How I still hang around here, and there's nothing to hold me
[Bridge]
C D Em Every time every year the travelers come and go C You see them landing with their pale wings D And flying back to the snow
[Verse]
G Em And the summer comes marching in with his heavy boots on C D Kicking along the blacktopped sidewalks of A1A Em C The young girls in their bare feet, cigarettes smoking G D Looking every which way, wishing and a'hoping
[Chorus]
C D Em And you want the night just to let you sleep and be on his way C D G D Wrap you up in some cool sheets and have nothing to say C Em Isn't it hard sometimes, isn't it lonely C D Em How I still hang around here, and there's nothing to hold me C Em Isn't it hard sometimes, isn't it lonely C D Em C How I still hang around here, and there's nothing to hold me Em La la la la la la la C D La la la la la la la la la
