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
