C Dm Am
Smeared black ink:
C Dm Am
your face is ashen and
C Dm Am
I'm barely listening to last demands
C Dm Am
I'm staring at the asphalt wondering what's
Buried underneath
F C G
where i am
F C G F
where i am
C Dm Am C Dm
I'll wear my badge: a vinyl sticker with big block
Am
Letters adherent to my chest
C Dm Am C Dm
That tells your new friends i am a visitor here:
Am
i am not permanent
C Dm Am C Dm Am
And the only thing keeping me dry is
F C G
where i am
(F C G)
You seem so out of context in this gaudy
Apartment complex
A stranger with a door key explaining that i am
Just visiting
And i am finally seeing why i was the one worth
Leaving
F
why i was the one worth
C
Leaving
C Dm Am
D.c. sleeps alone tonight
(2X)
(F C G)

F C G
The district sleeps alone tonight after the bars turn out their lights
F C G
And send the autos swerving into the loneliest evening
F C G F
And i am finally seeing why i was the one worth leaving
C
why i was the one worth leaving
F
why i was the one worth leaving
C F C
why i was the one worth leaving
