Tom: G

INTRO: G     Em  G

                                 Bm
There's a place I know too well
                                   C
I've been there and lived to tell 
                   G                 
And I can see that you and me are 
               D      G
Almost halfway there  

  
                              Bm
We're getting much too close
                              C
Feels like I've seen a ghost 
                   G                 
I took a vow, if I made it out, you'd never 
                D      C
Catch me there again                       


CHORUS:
                       Em
No time to wonder why
                           C
No time for long goodbyes 
                G
Last chance for getting out is 
                 D     C
Fading with the light 
                                  Em
'Cause I don't want to be around
                    C      G
When the night comes down 
 D     C        D       G
On the lonesome side of town   

       
                                 Bm
You can hear each footstep fall 
                              C
Run from shadows on the wall 
                 G                 
And every day is just the same as the 
                D     G
One that came before 


                          Bm
You won't find any peace
                                C
Not here, not on these streets 
            G                 
Misery loves company and there's
              D      C
Enough to go around  
                 

CHORUS:
                       Em
No time to wonder why
                           C
No time for long goodbyes 
                G
Last chance for getting out is 
                 D     C
Fading with the light 
                                  Em
'Cause I don't want to be around
                    C      G
When the night comes down 
 D     C        D       G
On the lonesome side of town   
 D     C        D       G
On the lonesome side of
 D     C        D       G
On the lonesome side of town

CHORUS:
