The gutter may profess its love
A C#m D
Then follow it with hesitation
A C#m E D E
But there are just so many of you out there for rent
A E
A stronger girl would shake this off in flight
A C#m D
And never give it more than a frowning hour
A C#m E
But you have let your heart decide, loss has conquered you
D E D
You've won one too many fights
E
Wearing many hats every time
D E A D E
But you wont win here tonight
A E
You've made it through the direst of straits alright
A C#m D
Can you help it if plain love now seems less interesting?
A C#m
You haven't changed an ounce in my eyes
E D E
And I cannot lecture you
A E
And does anything I say seem relevant at all?
A C#m D
You've been at the helm since you were just five
A C#m E
While I cannot claim to be more than a passenger

But, you've won one too many fights
E D

F#m G F#m
Just a moment or two from now
G F#m
Not a mind will retain even a trace
G D
Of the thoughts that I struggled to tell
E
And how our stack of cards just fell
E|--| Verse 3--
A E
So settle this once and for all
A C#m D
The light no longer shows the cracks around my door
A C#m E
And I have no lantern to light your way home tonight
E|--Chors--|
D E D
You are not some saint who's above
E D
Giving someone a stroll trhough the flowers

You've got so much more to dream of
G D
Oh girl, sail her, don't sink her
E D
This time
