The Dstars won't F#mshine on Bmme tonight
The Gmoon it just won't Ahelp me to Dsee
I'm Dparked up F#mhere at the Bmtop of a hill
I Ggot no place Aelse to DbeB7  
Down belEmow is the tArain, hear her Dsad refGrain
GAs she sings acAross the lBmand
"GI..D... EI don't kAnow who I Dam"
SomeDwhere down tF#mhere is a lBmittle red house
It Gsilently is Aburied in sDnow
And tDhere's a F#mman who is wBmalking there now
GDown a street I Aused to kDnowB7  
And up hEmere's just the tArees in the wDinter white Gbreeze
The tGrain is just a Alady in Bmblue
Oh, GI...D... EI don't Aknow what Ddo
BmI used to know just Gwho I was
EBack when I loved Ayou
BmOn second thought, well, Gmaybe not
Though I Enever, never needed Ato
'Cause I, DI've lived my F#mlife 'round Bmwho I'm not
That Gused to work just Afine for Dme
I'm Dnot my F#mmother, I'm Bmnot my father
GAt least, AI try not to DbeB7  
Then one Emday I woke Aup, found that Dwasn't enoGugh
GWho I'm not, that Aain't worth a Bmdamn
'Cause GI...D.. I Edon't Aknow who I Dam
BmI used to know just Gwho I was
EBack when I loved Ayou
BmOn second thought, well, Gmaybe not
EThough I never, I never needed Ato
D'Cause everF#mywhere I Bmused to go
GAll I saw was Aopen Ddoors
And eDvery tF#mime I tBmurned around
GThere would Abe one DmoreB7  
Yes, but Emnow it seAems that they're Dall closGing
And eGvery night I Ahear one more sBmlam
'Cause GI...D... EI don't Aknow who I Dam
No, GI....D.. I Edon't Aknow who I Dam

D F#m Bm

The stars won't shine on me tonight

G A D

The moon it just won't help me to see

D F#m Bm

I'm parked up here at the top of a hill

G A D B7

I got no place else to be

Em A D G

Down below is the train, hear her sad refrain

G A Bm

As she sings across the land

G D E A D

"I..... I don't know who I am"

D F#m Bm

Somewhere down there is a little red house

G A D

It silently is buried in snow

D F#m Bm

And there's a man who is walking there now

G A D B7

Down a street I used to know

Em A D G

And up here's just the trees in the winter white breeze

G A Bm

The train is just a lady in blue

G D E A D

Oh, I...... I don't know what do

Bm G

I used to know just who I was

E A

Back when I loved you

Bm G

On second thought, well, maybe not

E A

Though I never, never needed to

D F#m Bm

'Cause I, I've lived my life 'round who I'm not

G A D

That used to work just fine for me

D F#m Bm

I'm not my mother, I'm not my father

G A D B7

At least, I try not to be

Em A D G

Then one day I woke up, found that wasn't enough

G A Bm

Who I'm not, that ain't worth a damn

G D E A D

'Cause I..... I don't know who I am

Bm G

I used to know just who I was

E A

Back when I loved you

Bm G

On second thought, well, maybe not

E A

Though I never, I never needed to

D F#m Bm

'Cause everywhere I used to go

G A D

All I saw was open doors

D F#m Bm

And every time I turned around

G A D B7

There would be one more

Em A D G

Yes, but now it seems that they're all closing

G A Bm

And every night I hear one more slam

G D E A D

'Cause I...... I don't know who I am

G D E A D

No, I...... I don't know who I am
