D G/B D7sus/A D All the happy couples on their way to New Or-leans D D G/B D Re-minding me of when we got a-long D G/B D7sus/A D They're only renting time and space to fill up with their dreams D D G/B D And dreams are what they'll have when they have gone D G/B D7sus/A D How could it be that I was born without a clue to carry on D D G/B D And still it is the same now I am older G/B D7sus/A D Armed with just a will and then this love for singing songs D D G/B D And minding less and less if I am colder D G/B D G/B But I have this funny ache and it's burning in my chest D D G/B D And it spreads just like a fire inside my body D G/B D G/B Is it something God left out in my spirit or my flesh D D G/B D Would I be saved if I were brave and had a baby? D G/B It was never clear what would come next D7sus/A D but that's the risk and that's the test D D G/B D And you were the only one so far to follow G/B D7sus/A D And no one talks about when one might stop and need to rest D D D Or how long you sit alone before you D7sus/A D D stop looking back It's like you're waiting for Godot D D D And then you pick your sorry ass up off the street and G/B D G/B D G/B D Go... D G/B D G/B And what the hell is this? Who made this bloody mess? D D G/B D And someone always answers like a martyr D G/B D G/B Is it something you should know, did you never do your best D D G/B D Would you be saved if you were brave and just tried harder D G/B D7sus/A D So now I ride the aught-one-thirty-five to New Orleans D D G/B D I float a mile above life's toil and trouble G/B D7sus/A D A thousand lonely lifetimes I still wait and then go on D D G/B D G/B D G/B D D A clown to entertain the happy couples
