Capo 5th Fret (To Match Recording)
introduçãoG) (Em) (D) (C) (D)
(G) You act like you were just born tonight
Face (Em) down in a memory but feeling all right
So (D) who does your past belong to today?
Baby, (Em) you don't say nothing when you're (D) feeling this way
The (G) girls in the bars thinking, "Who is this guy?"
But (Em) they don't think nothing when they're telling you lies
(D) You look so careless when they're shooting that bull
Don't you know (Em) heartaches are heroes when their (D) pockets are full
--Chorus--
(C) Tell me you're trying to cure a (Bm) seven-year ache
(Em) See what else your old (C) heart can take
The boys say, "when is he gonna (Bm) give us some room"
The (Em) girls say, "god I hope he (D) comes back soon"
(G) Everybody's talking but you don't hear a thing
You're (Em) still uptown on your downhill swing
(D) Boulevard's empty, why don't you come around?
Baby, (Em) what is so great about (D) sleeping downtown?
(G) Splitting your dice to be someone you're not
You say you're (Em) looking for something you might've forgot
(D) Don't bother calling to say you're leaving alone
'Cause there's a (Em) fool on every corner when you're (D) trying to get home
--Repeat Chorus--
