Intro DDGD DDGD

     D MajorD                  G+G         D MajorD
She said, "There are things about you I don't really understand."
   B minorBm               G+G      D MajorD
I am drinking in the afternoon, got whiskey on my breath.
    D MajorD                    G+G        D MajorD
And as I walk through Greenwich Village, with a suitcase full of clothes,
   B minorBm              G+G       D MajorD
I am blinded by the afternoon and unsure where to go.
   B minorBm              G+G       D MajorD
I am blinded by the afternoon and unsure where to go.

     G+G                 B minorBm
Will you come for me on days like this when I am broken down?
         G+G                B minorBm
'Cause I've been strangled by an emptiness that's still choking me now.
    G+G                B minorBm  A augmentedA    G+G
I have prayed for absolution that won't ever come around,
     B minorBm         A?            D MajorD
So if you love me, won't you please forgive me now?


    D MajorD                G+G      D MajorD
Then I try to call my mother, but she's not around to talk,
   B minorBm               G+G      D MajorD
So I wander through the fading day, oblivious and lost.
   D MajorD                G+G            D MajorD
Yes I know I'm getting older, chasing time that slips away.
     B minorBm                   G+G      D MajorD
Point my headlights towards the interstate, it's time for my escape.
     B minorBm                   G+G      D MajorD
Point my headlights towards the interstate, it's time for my escape.


   G+G                   B minorBm
I am sorry for the things I've done; don't try to let you down.
   G+G                     B minorBm
In my dreams at night I hear your voice, and I'm shaken by the sound.
    G+G              B minorBm     A augmentedA   G+G
Now I'm stranded in Los Angeles and you're all I think about.
     B minorBm         A?            D MajorD
So if you love me, won't you please forgive me now?

         G+G          D MajorD
I hope there's a million stars above you,
     G+G             D MajorD
And everything you need, I hope it finds you.
   G+G                 D MajorD
Every breath you breathe, hope it comes easy,
      A augmentedA
I hope it's easy.


      D MajorD             G+G       D MajorD
I've got a picture in my wallet of a girl I used to know,
   B minorBm               G+G            D MajorD
And another of my family, it's been too long since I've been home.
    D MajorD                 G+G      D MajorD
Now I'm waiting on a train. Where I'll end up, God only knows.
   B minorBm                 G+G        D MajorD
Maybe I'll make my way back to her, but I guess I probably won't.
   B minorBm                 G+G        D MajorD
Maybe I'll make my way back to her, but I guess I probably won't.


    G+G                B minorBm
You are somewhere far away from me; I'm here all by myself.
      G+G              B minorBm
Through the space between the two of us, wish I had something else.
      G+G                B minorBm   A augmentedA      G+G
'Cause I'd surrender up most anything if I thought it'd help somehow.
     B minorBm         A augmentedA        D MajorD
So if you love me, won't you please forgive me now?
    B minorBm         A augmentedA        D MajorD
