Chords with lyrics

Verse 1:

E minorEm             Em/A
She's got a little house in town


        G+G
I sometimes go around, there


  G/F#
To see her


  E minorEm        Em/A
And she let me deep inside

      G+G
I sing her love songs


      G/F#
But she'll turn a blind eye


   E minorEm            Em/A
Cause she ain't the sentimental type


     G+G            G/F#
I keep my heart in my pocket and I hold


 G/F#*
I hold it tight


Chorus:

E minorEm              G+G
I know that she don't mind if I


          E minorEm
Go away and I don't call

Verse 2:

E minorEm                 G+G
Her skin is softer than the bluest eyes


     C majorC
With the warmth that I need


      D MajorD
Gives me a place


         E minorEm                     G+G
To hide from the streetlights burning through the bedroom window


     C majorC         D*            D MajorD
In the shadows yeah there's loneliness we cling to


E minorEm           G+G
When the morning comes


            C majorC
We'll go, we'll go our separate ways

Ain't no magic here, ain't no reason to stay

And we fall through empty corridors

And we talk in useless metaphors
