[Verse]
***Same picking pattern as intro***
[G]Where's that angel with [Asus2]dirty knees
who wasn't [C]hard to please when we first [G]met?
[G]She don't act like she [Asus2]needs me now
and she don't [C]even seem to be [G]upset.
[G]Maybe I cover to[Asus2]o much ground,
I've been from [C]town to town since I grew [G]up.
[G]Could my dreams take up [Asus2]too much space?
I'll never [C]find a place that's big [G]enough.
[Cborus]
[D] The [Em7]chairs go [G9]up on the [D]bar now,
and the [Em7]table [G9]lights go [D]black,
So I [Em7]order [G9]one last [D]double
and start calling people [Cadd9]back.
[Verse]
[G]Marc sounds good, he's been [Asus2]working hard.
Couldn't pu[C]nch a card to save his [G]life.
[G]Says he's glad that he [Asus2]quit the road,
he says he's [C]getting old, he missed his [G]wife.
[G]Little Em's been [Asus2]asleep since nine,
I'm sure she's [C]doing fine, she always [G]is.
[G]Dad won't answer his [Asus2]phone at night,
but I [C]guess that's alright, the place is [G]his.
[Cborus]
[D] The [Em7]chairs are [G9]up on the [D]bar now
and [Em7]they're [G9]asking me [D]to leave,
So I [Em7]give the [G9]girl a [D]bill
and start rolling down my [Cadd9]sleeves.
[Verse]
[G]In my pocket dire[Asus2]ctions back
across the [C]railroad tracks to where I [G]crash.
[G]Maybe I should wave [Asus2]down a car,
I won't be [C]going far, and I have [G]cash.
[G]Think I blocked just a [Asus2]park away,
but I can't [C]really say, it's been all [G]night.
[G]How I wish you would [Asus2]call me here,
but you just [C]disappeared, it wasn't [Asus2]right.
[Cborus]
[D] And the [Em7]streetlights [G9]help a [D]little,
but they're [Em7]barely [G9]half [D]alive
I [Em7]don't feel [G9]much like [D]walking
and I sure as hell can't [Cadd9]drive.
[Verse]
[G]Close your eyes and [Asus2]remember this.
It won't be [C]back again, it's almost [G]gone.
[G]Even times that don't [Asus2]seem like much
will be your [C]only crutch when you're [G]alone.
[G]Time moves slow when [Asus2]you're seventeen
and then it [C]picks up steam at [G]twenty-one.
[G]Pretty soon you'll [Asus2]remember when
you could [C]remember when you loved [G]someone.
