The overlapping vocal parts in the fade are approximate. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [Into] C Em F [Verse]
C
Hey Marie, are you up? I get lonely as hell.

C                  Em  F
I get drunk and I call...

C
when I'm on Tanqueray, I got so much to say.

C                    Em  F
Mostly talking to myself...
[Pre-Chorus]
Am              Em
This town isn't big enough,

Am                      G  Gsus4 G
I thought I wished you well.
[Chorus]
C               F                        Dm
You're with our old friends, out on the weekend,

             G               C
down by the water, drinking summer in.

C                F                       Dm
Then you're out walking, when I'm on the West End,

           G                 C   Em F
I'll never go downtown again.
[Verse]
C
In this old empty house, where I'm all by myself,

C                        Em   F
I forget that it's been years...

C
I get high on the past, yeah, I'm making it last,

C                    Em  F
but I always end up here...
[Prechorus]
Am                      Em
The hardest thing about breaking up...

Am/E                    G   Gsus4 G
is the stories that we tell...
[Chorus]
C               F                        Dm

You're off in the distance, and gone in an instant,

              G                C
there at the end and the beginning,

C                 F                    Dm
you're everywhere I am, oh there's no winning,

I'll never go downtown again...
