F*= xx321x (only used on bridge)
**Verse 1 (Pat)
_____C____________Am_________________F___G  
She woke up in a town made of quick sand
C______________Am__________________F_____G  
Gets harder to move every day she stays
C__________________Am____________F_________G  
He woke up in the same hotel he always does

Just different numbers on the door

C_________________Am_______________F______________G  
She'll treat you like somebody but you just can't touch
C____Am__________________F__________G  
His smile aint seen the light of day
C____________Am_____________________F_______________G  
Exchanged it for some treasures somewhere along the way
