Tom: Ebm
G#m C#
Perhaps I'd rather be alone
F# D#m
See my friends in love, ones just a moment at a time
G#m C#
It's a wild abandoned world, my home
F# D#m
Nothing I do but think on what's becoming of my life
G#m C#
You know I'm getting fat and old
F#
The powers that be have killed in me
D#m
The power that you still hold
G#m C#
While my love is growing cold
F#
The booze I said, I never leave it, even though I'm crumbling
D#m
I can cope
G#m
When are you coming down
C#
To the hole I call a home
[Chorus]
F#
Shake off your dress babe
D#m
And bless my soul
G#m
Come on and life me up
C#
To your place on high
F#
Take off your dress babe
D#m
Save my life
[Verse 2]
G#m C#
Hindsight shine a wonder across my eye
F# D#m
I saw the roads down which I could have lived a dozen lives
G#m C#
I told myself that little lie
F# D#m
I could have made it work, if I just had a little time
G#m
When are you coming down
C#
To the hole I call a home
[Chorus]
F#
Shake off your dress babe
D#m
And bless my soul
G#m
Come on and life me up
C#
To your place on high
F#
Take off your dress babe
D#m
Save my life
[Bridge]
A#m B F#
Working hard to believe it
A#m B F# D#m C# B
Looking for a way to go forward head on high
C#
Wouldn't hurt to try
G#m
When are you coming down
C#
To the hole I call a home
[Chorus]
F#
Shake off your dress babe
D#m
And bless my soul
G#m
Come on and life me up
C#
To your place on high
F#
Take off your dress babe
D#m
Save my life
