Chords with lyrics

Intro:
D MajorD  A augmentedA  F# minorF#m  A augmentedA  (x2)

Verse 1:
D MajorD      A augmentedA
I used to think that this was my town
    F# minorF#m       A augmentedA
What a stupid thing to think
D MajorD      A augmentedA
I hear you're fighting off a breakdown
     F# minorF#m       A augmentedA
I myself am on the brink
D MajorD       A augmentedA
I used to want to be a real man
      F# minorF#m       A augmentedA
I don't know what that even means
D MajorD       A augmentedA
Now I just want you in my arms again
F# minorF#m       A augmentedA
And we can search each other's dreams

Chorus:
B minorBm
I know you're tired
A augmentedA          E MajorE
And you ain't sleeping well
B minorBm
Uninspired
A augmentedA         E MajorE
And likely mad as hell
B minorBm
But wherever you are
A augmentedA      E MajorE             D MajorD
I hope the high road leads you home again

Verse 2:
D MajorD            A augmentedA
I've heard enough of the white man's blues
F# minorF#m        A augmentedA
I've sang enough about myself
D MajorD             A augmentedA
So if you're looking for some bad news
F# minorF#m          A augmentedA
You can find it somewhere else
D MajorD        A augmentedA
Last year was a son of a bitch
F# minorF#m       A augmentedA
For nearly everyone we know
D MajorD           A augmentedA
But I ain't fighting with you down in a ditch
   F# minorF#m       A augmentedA
I'll meet you up here on the road

Chorus:
B minorBm
I know you're tired
A augmentedA        E MajorE
And you ain't sleeping well
B minorBm
Uninspired
A augmentedA        E MajorE
And likely mad as hell
B minorBm
But wherever you are
A augmentedA        E MajorE
I hope the high road leads you home again
          D MajorD
To a world you want to live in

Bridge:
F# minorF#m
We'll ride the ship down
     A augmentedA
Dumping buckets overboard
F# minorF#m
There can't be more of them than us
E MajorE        D MajorD
There can't be more

Chorus:
B minorBm
I know you're tired
A augmentedA         E MajorE
And you ain't sleeping well
B minorBm
Uninspired
A augmentedA       E MajorE
And likely mad as hell
B minorBm
But wherever you are
A augmentedA         E MajorE
I hope the high road leads you home again
            D MajorD
