D MajorD           E minorEm   G+G          B minorBm
It s chilly wind that blows, Church Street in the morning
D MajorD         E minorEm     G+G      D MajorD
It s a hard, hard age resting heavy on my mind
D MajorD        E minorEm     G+G         B minorBm
And Hannah cries soft as the front door slowly closes
E minorEm         E minorEm  G+G       D MajorD
And she is not the only one I ve left behind
E minorEm         G+G    D MajorD     A7A7

D MajorD      E minorEm    G+G        B minorBm
I can still see you dancing in the street light
D MajorD      E minorEm       G+G           D MajorD
Baltimore smile and rain drops dripping from your hair
D MajorD        E minorEm     G+G         B minorBm
Once I held you close and you wrapped your legs around
E minorEm         E minorEm       G+G         D MajorD
I woke up in the night, it was not you, you were not there
E minorEm         G+G       D MajorD         A7A7


D MajorD            E minorEm        G+G        B minorBm
It s not the end of the world, just this country as I know it
D MajorD          E minorEm          G+G       D MajorD
I ve been across and back, I ve seen the high and chosen few
D MajorD         E minorEm        G+G        B minorBm
I will take the hit, because I m stronger and I know it
E minorEm             E minorEm      G+G        D MajorD
Take the cap off of the rocket boys and tell me when it s due
E minorEm              G+G       D MajorD        A7A7


D MajorD          E minorEm        G+G         B minorBm
I ve known lots of people , lots of drifters, lots of rejects,
D MajorD             E minorEm        G+G      D MajorD
Lots of clowns, lots of lovers, lots of liars, lots of thieves
D MajorD          E minorEm         G+G          B minorBm
And I have been the cat, I ve been the mouth, I ve been the closer
E minorEm       E minorEm        G+G         D MajorD
I am like a vault, your family's secret's safe with me
E minorEm       G+G         D MajorD         A7A7

D MajorD          E minorEm         G+G        B minorBm
So forgive me if I drift off in the silent folds of memories
D MajorD             E minorEm         G+G         D MajorD
Bout the battles that I fought in war and the ones I ve loved before
D MajorD              E minorEm         G+G      B minorBm
Cause I have lived through darkness, hope and lonely dying kisses
E minorEm           E minorEm    G+G       D MajorD
And I have seen the memory walk angry out the door.
E minorEm            G+G    D MajorD       A7A7


D MajorD             E minorEm        G+G         B minorBm
And I have been left for losers, left for heartache, left for money
D MajorD           E minorEm     G+G         D MajorD
And I have been left alone, left behind and left for dead
D MajorD           E minorEm        G+G        B minorBm
And you can take the pieces there and fight for recognition
E minorEm          E minorEm       G+G      D MajorD
But I will take the memories and silence in my head
