The Wallflowers


Tom: D

Intro:G  D  F#  Bm (2x)


G                       D
So long ago I don't remember when 
        F#                            Bm
THat's when they say I lost my only friend
           G                         D
Well they said she died easy of a broken heart disease
      F#                          Bm         G D F# Bm
As I listen through the cemetary trees    

         G                          D
I seen the sun comin' up at the funeral at dawn
    F#                      Bm
of long broken arm of human law
         G                           D
Now it always seem such a way she always had a pretty face
       F#                             Bm    G
I wondered when she hung around this place
F#
Hey, hey, heeehy...


Refrão:

 G
Come on try a little
D
Nothin' is forever
Em                          A
There's gotta be somethin' better than in the middle
G                 D
Me an Cinderella, put it all together
Em
We can drive it home
A                G D F# Bm
With one headlight


G                                      D
She said it's cold it feels like Idependence Day
F#                                 Bm
And I can't break away from this parade
     G                            D
But there's got to be an opening somewhere here in front of me
F#                                 Bm
Through this maze of ugliness and greed
   G                             D
I seen the sign up ahead at the county line bridge 
       F#                                Bm
Saying all is good and nothing less it's dead
   G                                 D
Running till she's out of breath she ran until there's nothing left
F#                              Bm
She hit the end it's her window ledge
G           F#
            Hey Hey Heeeey

G                                    D
This place is old feels just like a beat up truck
 F#                                  Bm
I turn the engine but engine doesn't turn
               G                                  D
With smells of cheap old wine and cigarettes this place is always such a mess
    F#                                  Bm
Sometimes I think I'd like to watch it burn
 G                            D
So alone I feel just like somebody else
     F#                                   Bm
Man I ain't changed but I know I ain't the same
    G                                D
But somewhere fere in between these city walls are dyin' dreams
 F#                                  Bm
I think her death it must be killing me
G           F#
            Hey Hey Heeeey
