(Em)                       (D)      (A)
Woke up this morning by an ice cold window,
(Em)                     (D)     (A)
with snow falling and its on the ground.
(Em)                    (D)        (A)
Get out of bed and I can hear the wind blow,
(Em)                    (D)      (G)
screaming angry wants to cut me down.
(Em)                       (D)      (A)
I should have known this wouldn't be easy,
(Em)                          (D)        (A)
I should have known that the fall would be hard.
(Em)                     (D)      (A)
I never thought these things that please me,
(Em)              (D)        (G)
would leave such a visible scar.

        (A)                (G)       (D)
Chorus) Lines on my face, time on my hands.
        (A)                       (G)       (D)
        Lines on the mirror where I make my stand.
        (A)                   (G)       (D)
        Lines on the highway, time on my side.
        (A)                        (G)         (D)
        On the back of a crazy horse I let her ride.

Doctor said that my heart exploded,
(Em)                   (D)         (G)
to much cocaine to much learning to fly.
