Verse:
         FF  A#A#
It'll never come easy
      FF     C majorC
Babe if it don't come clean
           FF     A#A#
And if it won't come sweet, babe
       FF    C majorC
Sometimes it comes mean
             FF   A#A#
Its like trying to put a fire out
         FF    C majorC
With matches and gasoline
         FF     A#A#
We've been going around and around
         FF      C majorC
But how have you really been?

Verse 2:
         FF      A#A#
You know we were good friends
       FF    C majorC
Its funny how we don't talk
         FF     A#A#
I flew over your city last night
              FF   C majorC
On a red-eye flight from New York
            FF      A#A#
I was looking for you down on the ground
            FF    C majorC
Wondering if you still remember
        FF      A#A#
The way that we just walked around
            FF    C majorC
Like the Queens of the Breakers


Pre-Chorus:
     FF     A#A#
I've been making up time
       FF    C majorC
I've been borrowing it too
     FF     A#A#
I've been taking advice that I
        FF  C majorC
Threw off in my youth
          FF           A#A#
Should have left it right there where you found it
      FF     C majorC
Instead of picking it up
        FF       A#A#
You wanted the world, but you drowned it

Chorus:
    FF      C majorC
At the bottom of the blues
   FF     A#A#
Its a reckoning feeling
    FF      C majorC
At the bottom of the blues
   FF      A#A#
We're begging and stealing
     FF    C majorC
You were ready to confuse
 FF     A#A#
Knowing and believing
       DmDm       C majorC
But you were right about the blues
     FF        A#A#     FF
You were wrong about the meaning

Verse 3:
         FF   A#A#
Talked with your mother
          FF    C majorC
We remembered when you were sick
            FF    A#A#
Felt like no one could help you
           FF    C majorC
You were falling and falling quick
          FF   A#A#
And it made a very heavy sound
          FF    C majorC
Like thunder on the mountain
          FF     A#A#
We were waiting for you to come around
            FF    C majorC
With the Queens of the Breakers


Pre-Chorus:
     FF     A#A#
I've been making up time
       FF    C majorC
I've been borrowing it too
        FF     A#A#
and I’ve been taking off disguises
          FF  C majorC
that I know are not true
              FF       A#A#
Should have left it right there where you found it
      FF     C majorC
Instead of picking it up
        FF       A#A#
You wanted the world, but you drowned it
    FF       C majorC
at the bottom of the blues


Bridge:
    FF  A#A#
Is your arbitrator
FF   C majorC
giving up
    FF   A#A#
At the broken alter
FF    C majorC
of your love?
     FF   A#A#
Took the sugar out of
   FF   C majorC
your coffee cup
   FF   A#A#
Every sulfur morning,
FF   C majorC
waking up


Outro:
C majorC A#A#

    FF       C majorC   FF A#A#
At the bottom of the blues
    FF      C majorC   FF A#A#
At the bottom of the blues
    FF       C majorC   FF A#A#
At the bottom of the blues
       DmDm       C majorC   FF A#A# FF C majorC
But you were right about the blues

FF A#A#
