Cmaj7 B7 Em G (x2)
[VERSE 1]
Cmaj7 B7 Em I read in the paper today G Cmaj7 B7 It's been a record year for rainfall Em And you were leaning against G the bathroom wall Cmaj7 B7 In your lonely dress Em G Cmaj7 B7 Was your only dress
Em G
Cmaj7 B7 Em I stand accusing across G Cmaj7 B7 I got a temper set for tender Em And you were shrugging it G off like a feather Cmaj7 B7 Saying "oh...Would you
look at this weather"
Em G
[CHORUS]
Cmaj7 B7 Em But what's the use of all of this? G Cmaj7 Just to remember you in the entire B7 Em 'Cause I'm watching it slip away G Cmaj7 And in the annals of the Empire B7 Did it look so gray Em G Cmaj7 Cmaj7 Before the falllllll Em G Cmaj7 Cmaj7 Before the falllllll
Cmaj7 B7 Em G
[VERSE 2]
Cmaj7 B7 Em So rake your thumbnail across G Cmaj7 B7 The stretch of the patina Em G Revealing a proserpina Cmaj7 B7 In a low recline Em G In a steep decline
[CHORUS]
Cmaj7 B7 Em What's the use of all of this? G Cmaj7 Just to remember you in the entire B7 Em 'Cause I'm watching it slip away G Cmaj7 And in the annals of the Empire B7 Did it look this gray? B7 Does it look so gray? B7 Does it always look so gray Em G Cmaj7 Cmaj7 Before the faaaallllll? Em G Cmaj7 Cmaj7 Before the faaaallllll?
