C
You act like you were just born tonight

     Am
Face down in a memory but feelin' all right

So who does your past belong to today?

Baby, you don't say nothing when you're feeling this way
[Verse 2]
    C
The girls in the bars thinking, "Who is this guy?"

    Am
But they don't think nothing when they're telling you lies

G
You look so careless when they're shooting that bull

               Am                               G
Don't you know heartaches are heroes when their pockets are full
[Chorus]

Tell me you're tryin' to cure a seven-year ache

See what else your old heart can take

Everybody's talkin' but you don't hear a thing

       Am
You're still uptown on your downhill swing

G
Boulevard's empty, why don't you come around?

Baby, what is so great about sleeping downtown?
[Verse 4]
        C
There's plenty of dives to be someone you're not

                Am
Just say you're lookin' for somethin' you might've forgot

G
Don't bother callin' to say you're leavin' alone

                 Am                               G
'Cause there's a fool on every corner when you're tryin' to get home
