Intro:G - D MajorD - E minorEm - C majorC      G+G - D MajorD - E minorEm - C majorC


   G+G       D MajorD      - E minorEm          C majorC
1.  It's K-Mart, the bathroom,    I'm staring in the mirror,
   G+G   D MajorD         E minorEm           C majorC
  the green lights are bright, it makes the lines clearer.
   G+G     D MajorD       - E minorEm               C majorC
  Where did the angels go,    cigarette smoke's all that's left,
   G+G                     D MajorD
  I've traded my wings in for a string of pearls,
       E minorEm         C majorC - G+G - D MajorD - E minorEm - C majorC
  and now the string is all I've le...........ft.


    G+G         D MajorD          - E minorEm        C majorC
2.  The light bulbs burn so much,     someone's in the stall,
    G+G    - D MajorD      E minorEm           C majorC
  big white    brick wall, makes me feel small.
  - G+G       D MajorD    E minorEm              C majorC
  And I    I take my shirt off, looking for a glimpse of flesh,
    G+G          D MajorD         E minorEm         C majorC
  I peel back the concrete, I hope there's still some soil left.

   G+G      D MajorD     E minorEm        C majorC
  'Cause I am fading, I am fading, I am fading away.
   G+G          D MajorD         E minorEm      C majorC
  I am fading, just like fairy tales, when the hero loses faith.
              ~
  I am fading.


    G+G        D MajorD    - E minorEm                 C majorC
3.  The air smells like urine,     it's getting hard to breeze,
   G+G         D MajorD     E minorEm              C majorC
  I could walk out that door, but no one ever really leaves.
  - G+G          D MajorD        E minorEm       C majorC
  And I   I take all my clothing off, trying not to forget,
     - G+G             D MajorD
  oh,   stupid things like the color of rain,
    E minorEm             C majorC
  and the smell of stone when it's wet.


      C majorC         E minorEm        Bb majorBb     A augmentedA
  And I am naked in the mirror with a feather in my hand,
      C majorC           E minorEm
  the lady comes out of the bathroom,
        Bb majorBb
  screaming, "Oh, Jesus!" Like I was a man.
      A augmentedA            G+G
  And I ask her "Hey, what happens to us,
    E minorEm          C majorC
  when we get old and in the way?"
   G+G      D MajorD         - E minorEm             C majorC
  I guess she answered me, 'cos they,  they took me away.


    G+G         D MajorD    E minorEm        C majorC
  And I am fading, I am fading, I  am fading away.
     G+G        D MajorD            E minorEm      C majorC
  I am fading, just like fairy tales, when the hero loses faith.
        G+G        D MajorD
  And I can't remember, why or when,
    E minorEm          C majorC
  I hope that I'll remember again.
       G+G - D MajorD - E minorEm - C majorC       G+G - D MajorD - E minorEm - C majorC
  And I am fa......ding.    And I'm fa......ding.
