Lyrics:
I wake up, feed your cat
And tell myself that Im okay where Im at.
And I take great care keeping this roof pitched
But it's lonely out here, I can't make any music
Understand I can no longer take care.

This is the last night in the house I was born in
Could you give me a ride to the train in the morning?
Ive got a real nice place on a real nice block with a garden outside,
You should see it sometime
But don't, don't worry about

This is the last night in the house I was born in
Don't tell me that I have forgotten who I am
I'm gonna write, write, write until it comes out wrong
And then Ill hang up my hands on the hook when Im done
And I know that you always wanted me to
And I tell myself the things you said you said just because you had to


Pretty straight forward song.
There is a bit of improvising but this is the basic idea.
Also Im never sure what to call the chords in that
descending chromatic progression (chorus) but I did my best.
No capo by the way
I hope this is helpful
