Gm                Gm

I guess that's?just?fine
        Gm

             Gm
My thoughts, such a mess
       Bb
Like?a little boy
                 Dm/A
What you runnin' for?
Gm               Gm
Run at the door

Anyone home?

Struck me?like a chord
           F7
I'm?an only boy
               Bb
Holdin' on the night
             Eb
Lonely after light
                     Cm7
You begged me not to go
               F7
Sinkin' like a stone
               Bb
Use me like an oar
                    Eb
And get yourself to shore


Verse 2:
Gm               Gm
Bang at the door

Anyone home?
          Bb
It's just what they do
                  Dm/A
Right in front of you
       Gm
Like a cannonball
         Gm
Slammin' through your wall
         Bb
In their face, I saw
                      Dm/A
What they're fightin' for
Gm                 Gm
I can't escape it
                               Bb
I'm never gonna make it to the end, I guess


Chorus:
                 Cm7
Struck me like a chord
            F7
I'm an only boy
               Bb
Holdin' on the night
             Eb
Lonely after light
               Cm7
Bangin' on the door
              F7

               Bb
Sinkin' like a stone
                  Eb
So use me like an oar
