FF   G+G          C majorC
Ah the night, here it comes again
   FF           G+G       C majorC
It's on with the jeans, the jacket and the shirt
FF      G+G       C majorC           A minorAm
How'd I end up feeling so bad for such a little girl
   FF           G+G     C majorC
And I hold you close in the back of my mind
FF         G+G        C majorC
Feels so good but damn it makes me hurt
  FF         G+G       A minorAm  G+G    FF
And I'm too scared to know to how I feel about you now
   FF          G+G     C majorC    FF C majorC FF
La Cienega just smiles, and "see ya around"

   FF           G+G     C majorC
And I hold you close in the back of my mind
  FF        G+G      C majorC
And raise my glass 'cause either way I'm dead
FF           G+G     A minorAm  G+G FF
Neither of you really help me to sleep anymore
       G+G      C majorC
One breaks my body and the other breaks my soul
   FF        G+G        C majorC  FF C majorC FF
La Cienega just smiles as it waves goodbye
