G Am D G
Laura are you still livin' there on your estate of sorrows?
G Am D G
You used to leave it occasionally but now you don't even bother
G Am D G
to ride the commuter train west to Chicago
G Am D G
to stroll through the greenery in the park past the statues
Bm Em C D
how her eyes seemed to follow you, like a hated addiction
Bm Em C
their beauty carved out of absolutes you could never claim
D
or even envision
G Am D G
Laura you were the saddest song in the shape of a woman
G Am D G
yeah I thought you were beautiful but I wept with your movements
G Am D G
but I hope that you're laughing now from that place on the carpet
G Am D G
where we shared a sleeping bag in your sister's apartment
G Am D G
oh how she would worry so, you know I was just a stranger
G Am D
but she asked me to care for you, yes she did
G
and I went and betrayed her
Bm Em C D
But do you know we're in high demand, Laura, us, people who suffer?
Bm Em C D
because we don't take to arguing and we're quick to surrender.
G Am D G
Well I think I would call tonight if I still had your number
G Am D G
your thoughts have always laid close to mine, and we're both skipping supper.
G Am D G
But you should never be embarrassed by your trouble with living
G Am
'Cause it's the ones with the sorest throats, Laura,
D G
who have done the most singing

Couple of things: 1. You switched the D and the G around the "I went and betrayed her" part. Pretty easy mistake to catch, but I figured I'd point it out. 2. During the chorus (the parts that start with the Bm) that first C doesn't sound right, I think it's supposed to be G for the first line and then C for the second, and the same with the next chorus as well. Aside from that, nicely tabbed.
