Intro: D  A  E  A  D  A  E  (2x)


Verse 1:
           *D       A                      E   A
You tell me I'm the one that's brought this between us
      D         A               E
But I don't see things that way
              D        A        E         A
If it's up to me, I've tried to hold on forever
      D         A          E*
But I could not get you to stay
              F#m              D
If it's up to me I'd climb the highest mountain
A                 E
Just to sing your praise and
F#m             D
I'd take almost every burden
    A                E
And weights I cannot raise for you


Repeat 1/2 Intro


Verse 2:
When I found you I found cliche romance
And a phony saving grace
And I lived every moment for you
In a cold and lonely place
I find myself rolling under
And burning time away
Two years gone and long forgotten
Distant through the haze

Chorus:
A         E      F#m     D
Nighttime Corpus can get lonely
A          E      D
Strung out on the bay
A          E     F#m      D
Ships sail out before the morning
       A      E          D
It's a trip I just won't make


Instrumental:  D  A  E  A  D  A  E (2x)
               F#m  D  F#m  E
               *D  A  E  A  D  A  E (2x)*


Verse 3:
Well I made my mind to make my mind up to wind up back home
Cus there's nothing left for me here
Just minimum wages and old photo pages
Stained up with all of my tears
And I'm checking out this morning before the dawn and
With an old and solemn face, I'm
Out to find some better days 
Far from this place, aw

Chorus (2x)
