Intro 1

Verse 1
D 
I came here with a woman
who believed in my ideas
G 
Looking for a dream I'd never found
But a woman soon gets hungry
A 
of living on a dream
G 
A 
And a town like this can turn her head around

Verse 2
I made her a promise that a break
A 
would bring a change
D 
While clinging to a dream
G 
that wouldn't die
But she got tired of waiting
A 
And the only break that came
G 
Was when that woman
A 
left me high and dry
D 

Verse 3
Now my life is just as empty
A 
D 
As the pockets in my jeans
G 
A

I  don't have that dream to get me by
G

The thing that's worse than dying
D 
Bm 
Is living every day
G 
A 
Waking up each morning

If a dream has any value,
then how much is it worth?

If the devil had a hotel
G

I'd trade my soul for just
D 
a place to sleep

I've lost my self respect

I'll wake up in the morn
A 
ing high and dry
