Verse 2:

C             Em
Do you know you're still with me
G          D
When I'm out with my friends?
C        Em        G        D
I stare at the painted faces that talk current affairs
C            Em
You had to know this was happening
G           D
You weren't feeling my heat
     C             Em
When I'm in the blue light, down at Baby's All Right
 G     D
I face reality

 C         Em
I tried (I tried) to let (to let)
  G            D
Whatever has to pass through me, pass through
  C     Em        G
But this is staying a while, I know
       D
It might not let me go
