Am
Now I'm missing you
                             F
I miss that town I miss your name  
Am
I don't speak it anymore
                                   F
Since you took my picture from its frame

G                                          F               C
I'm up later each night trying to write my way out of this tomb
G                                                 F             C
Seems these sedatives don't work as well in these gloomy rented rooms
G                                                F            C
Where the air conditioner's set on choke and the TV loops bad news
            G
I'm moving on  

 
         C 
So maybe Mexico
                       F
San Francisco would be fine
             C 
Somewhere to dry out
                           F
Clean up and pass a little time
              G  
I'll put some money down
                           F
Maybe a place right on the bay
        Am               F                      G               C
I'll build a brand new foundation from the bricks you threw my way

Am
That January moon
                          F
Indian summer's warm wind came
Am
Spring fever brought along
                               F
Some hope to quell the sin and shame

Am
But it wasn't long before
                           F
That winter chill began to haunt
Am
We tried to warm our bones
                                 F
In that freezing house I used to want

G                                                    F           C
And those highs and lows when they come and go just slide to the extreme
G                                                F      C
And I couldn't sleep there long enough to have a decent dream
G                                        F                  C
Where the heater's set on stifle and the nightmares made me scream
           G     
I'm moving on

         C 
So maybe Mexico
                       F
San Francisco would be fine
             C 
Somewhere to dry out
                           F
Clean up and pass a little time
              G  
I'll put some money down
                           F
Maybe a place right on the bay
        Am               F                      G               C
I'll build a brand new foundation from the bricks you threw my way
        Am               F                      G               C
I'll build a brand new foundation from the bricks you threw my way
        Am               F                      G               C
I'll build a brand new foundation from the bricks you threw my way
