Dsus2

Em G6 A

Another morning in the evening

Em G6 A

Tie and spoon on the floor

Em G6 A

And I don’t even know her name (Or if she lives here)

Em G6 A

Had enough but I want more

C Dsus2 Em

I don’t remember how I got here

And how long it’s been now

C Dsus2 C

A day or two, maybe more

Em G6 A

Home to home I spent the days

Em G6 A

Never wanted anywhere

Em G6 A

I always bit the hand that beat me (And they wrote me off)

Em G6 A

It’s easy not to care

C Dsus2 Em

Never trusted anyone

Don’t see why I should now

C Dsus2 C

Fate's unblinking, never fair

Em G6 A

(x2)

C Dsus2 Em G6 C Dsus2 C

Em G6 A

Em Bm G A

You’re all gonna be sorry when I leave town

F# Bm C Dsus2 B

And get it together, for the turnaround

Em Bm

6 bucks in my pocket

G A

and these shoes on my feet

F# Bm

The first step is out the door

C Dsus2 B

and onto the street
