Tom: G

G                           C
Standing in the break of a yawn
                        G
Where you done left me alone
                             D
There's nothing happening to hide

G                            C
Sitting in the shade of the lawn
                  G
As everybody goes home
                             D
There's nothing left here to find

C                            D
Standing with my back to the wall
                         G            Em
Minding the sky as it's falling all around me
C                            D
Listening for a break in the rain
                         G       D
For it's not drowning my pain anymore

G                          C
Standing in the shade of a yard
                      G
Where everybody works hard
                 D
And everybody is dying
G                     C
Walking up the town boulevard
                         G
Where I'm found out as a fraud
                         D
And there's nobody who's buying
