Verse 1
D 
All the lights are green
on Franklin Street
F#m 
when I     drove home last night
G 
And every four -way stop
that I approached,
A 
hey, I  was on the right
D 
And when I drove past your house again,
F#m 
hey,  like I always do
G 
I thought about the one thing in my life
A 
that didn't come true
D 
And it was you, it was you,
F#m 
who said  the dreams come true
G 
And it was you, it was you,
A 
who said that mine would too
D 
And it was you who said that
A

all I had to do was to believe
G 
But when your ivory towers tumble down,
A 
D 
they tumble down on me
Well, I turned into the driveway,
F#m 
through the   gates and pass along
G 
And I sat and stared into the dark
A 
before I  shut it off
D 
And she met me at the door
F#m 
and pressed her face  into my shirt
G 
And as awful as it sounds,
A 
I wished it wasn't her
D 
But it was you, it was you,
F#m 
who said  the dreams come true
G 
And it was you, it was you,
A 
who said the mind would too
D 
And it was you who said that

D 
G 
I still wish on every shooting star
A 
F#m 
that streaks across the sky
G 
And at every four -leaf clover,
A 
hey, I still close my eyes
D 
And at every church steeple,
F#m 
I still whisper a prayer
G 
when I open up my eyes
A 
hey darling you're not there and it was you
D 
F#m 
it was you who said
the dreams come true
and it was you
G 
A 
it was you who said the mind would too
D 
and it was you who said that
A

all I had to do  was to be

G 
When your ivory towers tumble down,
A 
D 
they tumble down on me.

applause
G 
white trash speak for yourself buddy
I've been heckled before laughter
Oh, it's just Novelty
Night at the Old Tin Angel,
isn't it? You labor over
all these songs
endlessly
your whole childhood.
You live this entire life
so somebody can scream out, big hair!
D 
You
