Verse 1
(F major) Last night
(Gsus4) (A minor) I heard this old (D minor) guy (Gsus4) play the gui (F major) tar
He (D minor) could (A minor) push you with the music,
he could (C major) n't take you far (F major)
But (D minor) he would push you with his writing,
and he'd (G major) always hide his love (A minor) (G major)
Just had one (F major) question for him, mister,
have you (G major) ever been
convicted of (Gsus4) theft?
(C major) Cause he'd say,
this one's close to dy (B flat major) ing,
this one's (D minor) fine (C major)
This (F major) one's past the turn (G major) ing point,
he's crossed the line (A minor) (G major)
Now, he was (C major) awful good at (B flat major) triage,
that's for (D minor) sure
But (C major) he was (F major) long on diagnos (D minor) is
and (C major) short on (G major) cure
A long (A minor) -winded conversation
in a dorm (Gsus4) room late (F major) at night
Our hearts laid (A minor) open under pale,
(Gsus4) unnatural light (C major) (F major)
I raised the (D minor) prospect of hope eternal
I was (G major) laughed at and (A minor) scorned
They (G major) rolled their eyes (F major) like
dice on the table, (G major)
but their number was forlorn. (C major)
They'd say, this one's close to dy (B flat major) ing,
that one's (D minor) fine.
(C major) This one's (F major) past the turn (G major) ing point,
he's crossed the line (A minor) (G major)
Now they were (C major) awful good at (B flat major) triage,
that's (D minor) for sure
(C major) But they were (F major) long diagnosis
(G major) and (C major) short on cure (G major)
Now you can (D minor) take your chance,
beat your (G major) fists on the boards (Gsus4) (D minor) of despair
You (G major) (Gsus2) end up with
(D minor) splinters in your knuckles
is thinking that (Gsus2) (G major) I'm just
un (D minor) fair. (Gsus2) (G major)
You can (F major) crawl to the altar of sadness (G major)
and starve at the (F major) base, (Gsus2)
an (G major) d then de (F major) vour your history
in the (C major) shadows of misery
and (D minor) blow away in the breeze
Without (G major) a (Gsus4) trace (C major)
Now you've been close to dy (B flat major) ing
In fact, you've crossed the line (D minor)
You've (C major) done sail (F major) right past
the turn (G major) ing point
Thinking everything's fine (A minor) (G major)
But when the (C major) gas runs out
and you're (B flat major) sittin' there stone cold (D minor)
You (C major) think I was (F major) young
when all this started (D minor)
and (C major) now I'm old (G major)
But when the (C major) doctor pushes
the triage (B flat major) crew aside (D minor)
He (C major) says you're all (F major) on diagnosis (D minor)
an (C major) d short on (G major) cure
He turns to you (F major) and says,
come (C major) on darling we can make this (D minor)
Yes (C major) I'm sure (G major) (F major) (C major)
Hmmmm hmmmm (D minor) hmmmm. (C major) (F major) (C major) (D minor) (C major) (F major) (C major)
(D minor)
(G major) (C major) (C major)
