[Intro]
| Em     | Em     | Am     | Em     |
 
 
[Verse 1]
                          Em                Em
Well I was walking these streets and it was raining
             Am                      Em
And I didn’t know what I was looking for
                      Em                   Em
But I was looking for something you can’t imagine
           Am                         Em
How much I needed to find an unlocked door
 
 
[Instrumental]
| Em     | Em     | Am     | Em     |
 
 
[Verse 2]
           Em                        Em
Or an open window that would lead my blind mind
             Am                Em
Out from the darkness into the light
               Em                 Em
To the nearest exit, to a little stranger
                    Am                     Em
With a dirty white smile that looked ultra-bright
 
 
[Instrumental]
| Em     | Em     | Am     | Em     |
 
 
[Verse 3]
                Em                        Em
That I would be lifted from my useless concerns
               Am                         Em
From my mortal fears of dissapearing from sight
         Em                      Em
Into the void, into the infinite wasteland
                        Am                                                  Em
Where a million billion years they’re gonna pass right in the blink of your eye
 
 
[Instrumental]
| Em     | Em     | Am     | Em     |
 
 
[Verse 4]
                    Em                    Em
But I stopped and I took, I took a cup of coffee
                   Am                              Em
With the doctor of mercy she sat right in front of me
              Em                        Em
And all of my questions calmed down so slowly
               Am                                                     Em
Until the only thing that really mattered was if she coming back with me
 
 
[Instrumental]
| Em     | Em     | Am     | Em     |
 
 
[Verse 5]
                   Em                   Em
And although she insisted, she insisted no
            Am                          Em
That didn’t matter, it didn’t matter to me
                       Em                      Em
Because I had lost my initiative and my incorporation
         Am                                        Em
I was so unincorporated and globalized, I couldn’t see
 
 
[Instrumental]
| Em     | Em     | Am     | Em     |
 
 
[Verse 6]
             Em                   Em
But the only thing that I could remember
             Am                                                  Em
When we were covered with the lights of dawn that made the roses bleed
                Em                       Em
And I remember swearing by the shrine of Elvis
                    Am                          Em
The blue moon of Kentucky would always shine on me
 
 
[Instrumental]
| Em     | Em     | Am     | Em     |
 
 
[Verse 7]
                        Em                 Em
Here’s to the blood red days of the end of august
              Am                               Em
Here’s to the years we swore we had nothing to lose
             Em                     Em
And in retrospect I goes I gotta be honest
                     Am                         Em
Or else I’m gonna suspect you were my only real muse
 
 
[Instrumental]
| Em     | Em     | Am     | Em     |
 
 
[Verse 8]
                     Em                         Em
But I still easily recall the way she passed my table
                       Am                                             Em
And the crinkle in her eyes the way she walked, the way she tasted to me
            Em                           Em
It was just magic the way she did her inuendos
             Am                                Em
It was so professional, so polished, you could see
 
 
[Instrumental]
| Em     | Em     | Am     | Em     |
 
 
[Verse 9]
                 Em            Em
That she’d been around so many drifters
           Am               Em
So many pretenders, so many clowns
              Em                       Em
That I was no different, in fact I was usual
          Am                      Em
I was too normal for her to stay around
 
 
[Instrumental]
| Em     | Em     | Am     | Em     |
 
 
[Verse 10]
               Em                  Em
Now I’m out of time and I’m out of money
                Am                       Em
Well I’m out of hope, I think I’m out of luck
                        Em                     Em
And all those wonderful things that I found so interesting
            Am                                   Em
To tell the truth right about now I don’t give a fuck
