G Some say love is like oxygen D And since you left me I?ve been suffering A Round and round like a weathervane I go D And I can?t find which way the wind will blow G In fact this whole thing is a mystery D And I?m feeling less and less free A Locked between the bars of my birth and my death D What my crime was well I can only guess G But you were the light in my darkness night D I was blind when you gave me sight A To see all that was beautiful D My empty life so lush lush and full G Oh your body was my temple of doom D A sanctuary and a living tomb A Where I was buried in two seconds flat D I know you said sometimes love is like that G But all I have left is a lock of your hair D At least I think it?s yours but baby I don?t care A I you gave me presents I can?t find them now D You said you did but I got my doubts G Because all you told me were sweet sweet lies D I could have been one a thousand guys A You could never get enough of you D Who were so shocked when their time was through G That?s it for me I?m on my way home D I?m singing the last verse of like a Rolling Stone A Rest assure I never wanted you to change D Into something refined or prearranged G Some say the world is doing fine D And those canaries are done their time A But I can?t hear them singing anymore D I?m nearly lifeless on your floor (from here he usually starts playing open chords, keep continuing the G D A D) Hey now little cha cha cha...
