Verse 2
C 
G 
I know you witnessed my decline
You used to push back the
C 
D 
darkness like a floodlight
C 
But tonight that's a secret,
D 
G 
D 
G 
C 
like the soul of a whore
G 
That if you want to have fun
D 
you'll just have to ignore
G 

Verse 3
C 
G 
Now I let my troubles solve themselves
I used to get involved,
C

but I'm just no help

But tonight let's pretend that
G 
D

we're just like we were

Let me stay until the morning,
D 
I will sleep on the floor
G 

Verse 4
C 
G 
We can talk in circles, no dollar figures

Just what is owed or paid.

I know you see the future and I agree

We agree, tonight's
G

not happening
G 

Verse 5
Em 
G 
C 
G 
When I got dry as a desert, I got mean
C 
D 
I was lonely and empty as a canteen
C 
D 
With no anesthetic you're
G 
D 
G 
C 
found to be sore
G 
But tonight I am drinking,
D 
all peaceful and warm
G 

Verse 6
C 
And just when I got fed up
G 
with the grey sky
C 
The sun came out of nowhere
D 
like a bar fight
C 
D 
And it knocked out the wind and
G 
D 
C 
it bruised me with light
G 
and I felt grateful for living
D 
like I  feel tonight
G 

Verse 7
C 
G 
Well, I know you feel safer in a group
C 
Where you could be anyone
D 
or they could be you
C 
D 
But tonight, we'll take risks
G 
D 
C 
that you can afford
G 
You still have bars on your windows
D 
and a hole in your doo
G 

Verse 8
C 
We can talk in circles around
G 
the dirty mirrors
C 
Night trickles down our throats
D 
C 
And we can make a time line
G 
to last our whole lives
Am 
D 
But we don't know, no one knows
C 
G 
D 
G 
What's further up the road
Am 
D 
G 
Just wait and see
Am 
All in time
