EIt's been over thirty Ema7/D#days
I've E7/Dnot received your A/C#letter
My fAmi/Cingernails are Dchewed down to the Ebone
ESo many different Ema7/D#ways
I've E7/Dhad to say I'm A/C#sorry
While I'm Ami/Cleft here in this Deight by ten Ealone
[Pre-chorus 1]
AIt's not the four walls movin' in that Etortures me
AIt's not the cold cement or shivers Bdown my spine
EIt's just the visions in my Ema7/D#head that E7/Dmake me A/C#paranoid
Ami/CAnd wonder if I get Dout will you be Emine

so E7/Dbad my love I'm A/C#sorry
I'm Ami/Cbroken, now I can Dsee that now it's Etrue
My Epicket fence is Ema7/D#turning razor E7/Dwire
And now I'm A/C#awaiting trial
Ami/CThings you have to Dknow I did not Edo
[Pre-chorus 2]
AIf I could get a word with you I'd Ebe just fine
AOr any envelope with both your Bname and mine
EWe'd be enough to keep me Ema7/D#going
In a E7/Dworld where I'm left A/C#knowing that
There's Ami/Csomething more to live Dfor just Eoutside
[Chorus]
ASeems like the last time, Bfeels like the first

EI haven't seen the Ema7/D#sun
Since it E7/Drested on your A/C#shoulder
While we Ami/Cwalked along that Dvacant river Eside
EThey carried me Ema7/D#away
To a E7/Dplace where I get A/C#older
If I Ami/Ccannot prove to Dthem you never Edied
[Chorus 2]
