Wallflowers Bringing Down the Horse (1996)
G                           D
So long ago, I don't remember when

     F#                               Bm
That's when they say I lost my only friend

G                                     D
Well they said she died easy of a broken heart disease

F#                                   Bm
As I listened through the cemetery trees
G D F# Bm
G                                    D
I seen the sun comin' up at the funeral at dawn

      F#                      Bm
The long broken arm of human law

G                               D
Now it always seemed such a waste She always had a pretty face

       F#                               Bm
I wondered how she hung around this place

G     G     F#7    F#7
                   Hey,

G
come on try a little

D
Nothing is forever

Em                      A
got to be something better than

             G
In the middle

              D
me & Cinderella

                  Em
put it all together

                    A
We can drive it home

             G
With one headlight
(G) D F# Bm
              G
She said it's cold

                    D
It feels like Independence Day

      F#                           Bm
And I can't break away from this parade

 G
But there's got to be an opening

   D
Somewhere here in front of me

   F#                               Bm
Through this maze of ugliness and greed

G
And I seen the sun up ahead

      D
At the county line bridge

   F#                                     Bm
Sayin' all there's good and nothingness is dead

G
We'll run until she's out of breath

    D
She ran until there's nothin' left

 F#                                 Bm
She hit the end-it's just her window ledge

G     G     F#7    F#7
                   Hey,

G
come on try a little

D
Nothing is forever

Em                      A
got to be something better than

             G
In the middle

              D

                  Em

             G
With one headlight
(G) D F# Bm G D F# Bm
                    G
Well, this place is old

      D
It feels just like a beat up truck

         F#                               Bm
I turn the engine, but the engine doesn't turn

 G
Well it smells of cheap wine & cigarettes

     D
This place is always such a mess

    F#                                  Bm
Sometimes I think I'd like to watch it burn

  G                                 D
I'm so alone, and I feel just like somebody else

       F#                                   Bm
Man, I ain't changed, but I know I ain't the same

     G                                          D
But somewhere here in between the city walls of dyin' dreams

  F#                                Bm
I think her death it must be killin' me

G     G     F#7    F#7
            Hey,

G
come on try a little

Nothing is forever
