EmI set my Ccamp aGgainst the Dwind
EmBut don?t come Cclose to a Glover's Dsin
EmI danced Cthe edge of an DavalGanche
And Clived to Dwalk Gaway

EmI slept all Cnight on a Gbed on Dnails
EmI?ve walked Cbare feet on a Gfire Dtrail
EmI?ve felt Chot needles Dunder my Gskin
CSince you wDent Gaway
[Chorus]
GDon?t forDget me I once Emlived to see your Dsmile
GTake a Dmoment and Emadd this to your Cpile
EmThis dream is Cover and you Gwant a change of Dstyle
AmNow I?ll be Clonely for a Gwhile
[Verse 3]
EmI?ve broken Cthrough your Gbattle Dlines
EmTampered Cwith the Ghands of Dtime
EmI walked Cfor miles under Ddesert Gskies
CAnd still I?ve Dmade no Gground
[Verse 4]
EmWell you have Cseen my Gfall from Dgrace
EmWatched me Cbeg with your Gstone cold Dface
EmThrown me Caway while you Dkept your Gpace
CThe new king Dhas been Gcrowned
