[Verse]
D G
Wake up, coughing, tired, with my face in my hands,
B5 A G
staring at the window as the sunlight demands action.
D A
All the energy it takes to close these bedroom blinds.
D G
Wrote this selfish sadness on a bathroom wall,
B5 A
spent half the span of some lost culture’s rise and fall,
G D A
but I’m as clueless as a drooling four year old.

[Prechorus]
B5 G A
Still hoping I might find the capacity
B5 G A
to let you know I know you’re lonely.

a final slow dance through

G|------0-2-2-2-|
D|----4---2-2-2-|
A|--5-----2-2-2-|
E|--------------|
the days that we all hold on to.
[Repeat chorus]
Here’s the promises I’ve made, tied too tight to undo.
An unwrapped gift from me to you.

[verse]
D G
All the slightly insane on the 18 North Main,
B5 A
reaching for a small-town downtown, night rain,
G D A
nothing I could say could be worth saying anyway today.
D G
Like “Hey, whatever happened to what’s that guys’ name?”,
B5 A G
we get a little older and it looks the same: askance.
D A
Excuse my failing sense of humour.
