    G+G      G6G6
Looking back at my reflection
G+G          G6G6   G+G
Ghost train whistle howled
      G6G6      G+G       G6G6
Back at my past with forgiveness and affection
G+G        G6G6   G+G  G6G6
Wondering where you are now
  G+G        D MajorD    G+G Gmaj7Gmaj7 G6G6  G+G Gmaj7Gmaj7 G6G6
I?m wondering where you are now

   G+G         G6G6
Interjections and sad reflections
    G+G        G6G6
As the bullshit hit the wall
    G+G      G6G6
In the belly of the beast
    C majorC        G+G
In the sickness of the soul
    E minorEm   G+G
Of America the Small
    E minorEm   G+G   D MajorD
Of America The Small


       C majorC    G+G
Looking back, back to front
        C majorC  D MajorD
Front to back again
          C majorC    G+G
Mesmerised by your perfect skies
               D MajorD       E minorEm C majorC
Perhaps you're better off without me in the end
   G+G       D MajorD       G+G  Gmaj7Gmaj7 G6G6 G+G Gmaj7Gmaj7 G6G6 G+G Gmaj7Gmaj7 G6G6
Yeah, better off without me in the end


     G+G      G6G6
And if we meet in the shadowed street
G+G
What could you say
E minorEm    G+G  E minorEm    G+G
Midnight birds have no words
      D MajorD   G+G
All traces blown away
    D MajorD   G+G  D MajorD
Traces blown away


       C majorC    G+G
Looking back, back to front
        C majorC  D MajorD
Front to back again
          C majorC    G+G
Hypnotised by your stunning lies
              D MajorD       E minorEm C majorC
Perhaps I'm better off without you in the end
      G+G       D MajorD       G+G
Perhaps I'm better off without you in the end
