Verse 2
Em
That's I'm always thinking of you
You know I'd take you with me
Wherever I go
D
But
Verse 3
Em
I catch myself in the mirror
And I remember I gotta do
something about my life
D
Verse 4
Em
For I'm as empty as the
clothes that I laid
D
Crumpled where they fell to the floor
Em
I'm as empty as the ten
green bottles
Hanging in my mind from the night before
D
Em
And an ashtray full of moments
Spent thinking about the things I
Should have done
D
Verse 5
Em
I say goodbye to another old friend
Yeah they stayed through
D
thick and thin
Through the laughter and
Em
the tears
D
Through every state that I've been in
Em
And I know they don't wanna hurt me
D
But I can see it in their eyes
Em
That they're killing me so gently
How can I ever say goodbye
D
Em
For as young me we clattered
through these streets
D
And how we hit this town runnin'
Em
And we were so sure of being us
We flattened everything that
D
stood in our path
Em
Now I wake up and I have
to find myself
A
Em
Through all the s*** that
D
once told me who I was
Em
I say goodbye to so many old friends
D
Here I left them to the wind
Em
And there ain't much point in chasing
D
The things you can never get back again
Em
But there's still some life in this one
Give me a match and I'll reminisce
D
Em
Of a time when we were younger
D
And we were stealing our first crack
Em
And our thoughts had turned to dying
D
And we were unaware at the time
Em
That this ride it could ever fall...
D
Could ever slow down to this time...
For I've been drunk and stoned
Em
and feeling mellow
And that's how I've been
D
getting through
Looking at the blurry
Em
shapes around me
D
Thinking I knew more than I knew
Em
And it's not that i don't love you
D
Or are tired your ways
Em
If i could only take you with me
Outro 1
If i could only ease this pain
