					 Bb
It took so long to get me back on my feet

						Bb
It takes so long to find the words and the beat
And Charlie's waiting on the end of the phone
		Gm 			F
To hear you call on him to try to recapture

						Bb
But them old records won't be saving your soul

						Bb
And them feelings got the reasons you know
That you've forgotten somewhere
			Gm
Riding a train to place

You are out in the cold cold

Stop pacing around and waiting for some moment

Like when you were young

And everybody used to call you lucky

Nothing feels right in the wintery cold

						Bb
Steam, heat, clang, and the dark at your door
All the other rooms are a party tonight

And you never got an invitation

And you feel in your bones, steady aching some more

Twenty five years gone just an hour ago

Until it was much too late to recover
