intro : C

C Am
i’ve been known to walk at night
F
where streetlights end
G
and dark begins
C Am
and lately i’ve been occupied
F G
with things i should have left behind
C Am
all my shortfalls notwithstanding
F G
i could give a lot to you
C Am
press this dream up muddy river
G
underneath the drowsy moon

Am G C x2

C Am
i’ve been seen out all alone
Em G
past grocery stores and mobile homes
C Am
beyond the glow of industrial parks
Em G
where laundromats spin broken hearts
C Am
out among the powerlines
Em G
things don’t always turn out fine
C Am
there’s a message in this nursery rhyme

Am G C x2
