Intro Dm  C  Bb  


[Verso 1]


Dm           C                  Bb 
Eastern time has gotten the best of me 
Dm           C                  Bb 
I blew my voice out giving the eulogy 
Dm           F       Bb 
My broken body, my aging knees 
Dm           F                            Bb 
I haven't stood still since I was twenty-three 


[Pré-Refrão]


Gm  C                                   Bb 
And you were there lying through your teeth 
C                            Gm 
Always going after the cheap heat 
C                       Bb 
Swearing that you're coming to meet me 


[Refrão]


                Dm 
Meet me on the fire escape 
              C         Bb 
If you're coming to save me 
              Dm 
I've been lying awake 
                C       Bb 
Staring out at the dead street 
Dm - Bb 
I'm alone (Ohh) 
F 
The cold air let me know 
Dm - Bb 
I'm on my own (Ohh) 
                        Dm 
You're never gonna show 


[Verso 2]
 

Dm           C                  Bb 
Well, I got caught in the riptide that follows you 
Dm           C                  Bb 
I’d pull my teeth out just cause you asked me to 
Dm           F                  Bb 
I can't forgive you, no matter what I do 
Dm           F                  Bb 
I hate that about me, but I know it's true 


[Pré-Refrão]


Gm  C                                   Bb 
I'm a sweater that you've given to Goodwill 
C                            Gm 
Or lied about and sent to the landfill 
Am                      Bb 
I'm the sucker left holding my breath still 


[Refrão]


                Dm 
Meet me on the fire escape 
              C         Bb 
If you're coming to save me 
              Dm 
I've been lying awake 
                C       Bb 
Staring out at the dead street 
Dm Bb 
I'm alone (Ohh) 
F 
The cold air let me know 
Dm Bb 
I'm on my own (Ohh) 
                        Dm 
You're never gonna show

                F

Oh, no, Goddamn it all 
                                Dm 
Tell me what's it feel like seeing a ghost

Oh, no, Goddamn it all

Goddamn it all
