I'm staying stubborn in retreat

An old lady fixed my collar, said her steps were getting steep
C#m* B*
I said "I live by the top but not permanently"
E* B*
I know you follow, I can hear you
C#m* B*
And the patter of your feet
E* B*
I'm looking like I'm still half asleep
C#m* B*
And it feels like you're standing on me
CHORUS:
Amaj7 E B C#m
Why do you ask me? I don't know my way
Amaj7 E B C#m
Why do you keep me hear? I have no more cards to play

You drain the life out of me, I've forgotten how to think
E* B*
I was sitting on a fortune now I'm staring down a sink
C#m* B*
I've got one too many itches and you're just another sting
E* B*
You can I hope that I might
C#m* B*
But I never feel a thing
E* B*
You can I hope that I might
C#m* B*
But I never feel a thing

I'd wait to hear your voice but I never could reply
