Verse 1:
BmGot a message in my Dhead
that the papers had all comeA  
Richard Manuel is deadBm  
and the daylight's comin' onD  
I've been wandering through the darkA  
Bm(B) (C#) D  
now I'm standing on the lawn
Chorus:
If I could give aAll my lBmove to Dyou
I could justify myAself
but I'm Gjust not coming tDhrough
You're a pill to ease the pAain
of all the stGupid things I Ddo
(C#) Bm  
I'm an anchor on the line
of a clock that tells the Gtime
that is running out on Ayou G(pDlay first 1/2 of intro riff over A G D)
Verse 2:
BmIt was cold when I aDwoke
and the day was halfway Adone
Nearly spring in San FranBmcisco
and I cannot feel the Dsun
You were sleeping next to Ame
Bm(B) (C#) D  
but I knew that you'd be gone
Repeat Chorus

Verse 3:
BmTake some time before you Dgo
To think of Mondays coming Adown
and the people that you Eknew
and the ones that aren't arBmound
You've been fading day to Dday
I've been moving town to tBmownD  
Repeat Chorus twice
(skip the intro riff between these repeats)
End with a variation on Riff 1 (it's a really easy variation)
