GDGb7BmAGDGb7BmAVerse 1:
GD
So long ago, I don't remember when
Gb7BmA
That's when they say I lost my only friend
GD
Well they said she died easy of a broken heart disease
Gb7BmA
As I listened through the cemetery trees
Interlude: GDGb7BmAVerse 2:
GD
I seen the sun comin' up at the funeral at dawn
Gb7BmA
The long broken arm of human law
GD
Now it always seemed such a waste she always had a pretty face
Gb7BmA
I wondered how she hung around this place
Pre-Chorus:
GGGb7Gb7
Hey
Chorus:
G
Come on try a little
D
Nothing is forever
Em7A
Got to be something better than
In the middle
G
Me & Cinderella
D
Put it all together
Em7AA7sus4
We can drive it home
G
With one headlight
Instrumental: GDGb7BmAVerse 3:
G
She said it's cold
D
It feels like Independence Day
Gb7BmA
And I can't break away from this parade
G
But there's got to be an opening
D
Somewhere here in front of me
Gb7BmA
Through this maze of ugliness and greed
G
And I seen the sun up ahead
D
At the county line BridgeGb7BmA
Sayin' all there's good and nothingness is dead
G
We'll run until she's out of breath
D
She ran until there's nothin' left
Gb7BmA
She hit the end-it's just her window ledge
Pre-Chorus:
GGGb7Gb7
Hey hey
Chorus:
G
Come on try a little
D
Nothing is forever
Em7A
Got to be something better than
In the middle
G
Me & Cinderella
D
Put it all together
Em7AA7sus4
We can drive it home
G
With one headlight
Instrumental -x2-: GDGb7BmAVerse 4:
G
Well this place is old
D
It feels just like a beat up truck
Gb7BmA
I turn the engine, but the engine doesn't turn
G
Well it smells of cheap wine & cigarettes
D
This place is always such a mess
Gb7BmA
Sometimes I think I'd like to watch it burn
GD
I'm so alone, and I feel just like somebody else
Gb7BmA
Man, I ain't changed, but I know I ain't the same
GD
But somewhere here in between the city walls of dyin' dreams
Gb7BmA
I think her death it must be killin' me
Pre-Chorus:
GGGb7Gb7
Hey hey hey
Chorus:
G
Come on try a little
D
Nothing is forever
Em7A
Got to be something better than
In the middle
G
Me & Cinderella
D
Put it all together
Em7
We can drive it home
