   C majorC  G+G
Well bravo,
            A minorAm  FF
You lit a light in my life,
           A minorAm  G+G
Raised them chips and railroads,
           A minorAm   FF
Headed off into the night.
              A minorAm  G+G
But you were just like the government,
       A minorAm   FF
Lying all the time,
             A minorAm    G+G
With a shattered piece of way-back-when
            C majorC   FF
Stuck, forever in your mind.

          G+G     FF
When, baby, it was you and me,
A minorAm        G+G             FF
One step forward, two step fighting infidelity,
   A minorAm    G+G
Which always is velvet-covered.

C majorC G+G
I woke,
        A minorAm  FF
I awoke into a ghost
        A minorAm  G+G
Of a ship that sailed,
             A minorAm  FF
But I'ma laugh it up the most,
              A minorAm  G+G
'Cause I no longer have to worry
             C majorC   FF
'Bout the shadows on your walls.
           A minorAm    G+G
Can you remember how proud we were
         FF
Right before the fall?

          G+G     FF
When, baby, it was you and me,
A minorAm        G+G             FF
One step forward, two step fighting infidelity,
    A minorAm       G+G
Though, truly we don't mind
            FF
Sleeping on a different bed,
A minorAm       G+G
Long as you got velvet covers.
        FF
Shouting it out to remind you,
A minorAm       G+G
Hangin' it out to dry.
