Intro: D A E A D A E (2x)

Verse 1:

*D A E A

You tell me I'm the one that's brought this between us

D A E

But I don't see things that way

D A E A

If it's up to me, I've tried to hold on forever

D A E*

But I could not get you to stay

F#m D

If it's up to me I'd climb the highest mountain

A E

Just to sing your praise and

F#m D

I'd take almost every burden

A E

And weights I cannot raise for you

Repeat 1/2 Intro

Verse 2:

When I found you I found cliche romance

And a phony saving grace

And I lived every moment for you

In a cold and lonely place

I find myself rolling under

And burning time away

Two years gone and long forgotten

Distant through the haze

Chorus:

A E F#m D

Nighttime Corpus can get lonely

A E D

Strung out on the bay

A E F#m D

Ships sail out before the morning

A E D

It's a trip I just won't make

Instrumental: D A E A D A E (2x)

F#m D F#m E

*D A E A D A E (2x)*

Verse 3:

Well I made my mind to make my mind up to wind up back home

Cus there's nothing left for me here

Just minimum wages and old photo pages

Stained up with all of my tears

And I'm checking out this morning before the dawn and

With an old and solemn face, I'm

Out to find some better days

Far from this place, aw

Chorus (2x)
