Tom: Em
G C
When all the world turns into hospitals and jails
G C
I can always count on your love to be my bail
G C
And we'll go traveling on from year to year
G D Cm
Just you and i, my dear
Verse:
I've got my backpack full of fourteen cartons
Of cigarettes, cigarettes
I've got a bumper sticker on my chest that says
No regrets, no regrets
I've got your love draped all around me like
A big black cape, a big black cape
All the billboards on the highway say
Don't be late, don't be late
It's just you and i
It's just you and i
Chorus
Instrumental (twice through verse chords)
Verse:
Well i woke up in the middle of the kitchen floor
I was listening for your knocking
But you weren't outside my door
And i know that you won't be coming 'round
In the way i want you to
I wish you'd throw your arms around me
But it's not for me
It's not for me
It's not to be
It'll be just me
Chorus:
G C
And i know i never told you how i felt
G C
But you could never understand the blues that you have dealt me
G C
So i'll keep traveling on from year to year
G D Cm
It'll be just me, my dear
G D Cm
It'll be just me, my dear
G D Cm
Same thing year after year
G D Cm
It'll be just me, my dear
