C#5C#5          A5A5
My eyes opened to the emptiness.
E5E5           B5B5
My face was nothing but crooked lines.
C#5C#5      B5B5      A5A5
I guess somewhere I really fell behind.
C#5C#5              A5A5
My feet were cold against the bathroom tile.
E5E5          B5B5
Took a shower just to pass the time.
C#5C#5     B5B5        A5A5
My mind was full, too much to figure out.

         C#5C#5    B5B5        A5A5
Walk through the snow to a bar where there's no one I know.
    C#5C#5    B5B5    A5A5
Drink slow, drink slow with nowhere to go.

And when I leave I'll be singing this song.    Summer's

     gone, carry on, I'm a ghost in the dawn.

E5E5  B5B5     A5A5
I was lost on the airplanes.
E5E5  B5B5     A5A5
I was high on the fast trains.
  C#5C#5     B5B5    A5A5
My heart was a bird in a small cage.
E5E5     B5B5     C#5C#5  A5A5
And I was drunk on the radio waves.
    E5E5      B5B5      C#5C#5  A5A5
I was drunk, I was drunk on the radio waves.

             A5A5
Too much coffee I’m not steady now.
E5E5            B5B5
Quiet apartment, ears are ringing loud.
C#5C#5    B5B5         A5A5
The winter drowns out all the city sounds.
C#5C#5           A5A5
Hang my towel over the shower rod.
E5E5         B5B5
So many hours just hanging on.
C#5C#5   B5B5     A5A5
So many chances have come and gone.

And I was drunk on the radio waves.
    E5E5      B5B5      C#5C#5  A5A5
I was drunk, I was drunk on the radio waves.


C#5C#5     A5A5       E5E5      B5B5
And all this time passed me by and I was trapped here waiting.
C#5C#5      A5A5       E5E5       B5B5
Sometimes the truth is hard to find and I was scared of changing.
C#5C#5 B5B5   A5A5    C#5C#5  B5B5   A5A5
What will it say on my snow-covered grave?
E5E5     B5B5       C#5C#5   B5B5  A5A5
"He had it all, he let it all just slip away."

      C# minorC#m      BB      A augmentedA
And when I leave I'll be singing this song.
     C# minorC#m     BB     A augmentedA
Summer's gone, carry on, I'm a ghost in the dawn.


E5E5  B5B5     A5A5

    E5E5     B5B5      C#5C#5  A5A5
I was drunk, I was drunk on the radio waves.
