Chorus: |G | D | Em | A7 | 2x
[Verse 1] A | E
| G#7 | C#m B
So long ago, I don't
remember when
That's when they say
I lost my only
friend
Well they said she
died easy of a
broken heart
disease
As I listened
through the cemetery
trees
[Interlude] A E G#7
C#m B
[Verse 2] A | E
| G#7 | C#m B
I seen the sun
comin' up at the
funeral at dawn
The long broken arm
of human law
Now it always seemed
such a waste she
always had a pretty
face
I wondered how she
hung around this
place
A A G#7 G#7
Hey
[Chorus] A E
F#7 B
Come on try a little
Nothing is
forever
Got to be something
better than In
the middle
Me and Cinderella
Put it all
together
We can drive it
home
A
With one
headlight
[Instrumental] (A)
E G#7 C#m B
[Verse 3] A | E
| G#7 | C#m B
She said it's
cold
It feels like
Independence Day
And I can't break
away from this
parade
But there's got to
be an opening
Somewhere here in
front of me
Through this maze of
ugliness and
greed
And I seen the sun
up ahead
At the county line
bridge
Sayin' all there's
good and nothingness
is dead
We'll run until
she's out of
breath
She ran until
there's nothin'
left
She hit the end-it's
just her window
ledge
A A G#7 G#7
Hey hey
[Chorus]
[Instrumental] A E
G#7 C#m B 2X
[Verse 4] A | E
| G#7 | C#m B
Well this place is
old
It feels just like a
beat up truck
I turn the engine,
but the engine
doesn't turn
Well it smells of
cheap wine and
cigarettes
This place is always
such a mess
Sometimes I think
I'd like to watch it
burn
I'm so alone, and I
feel just like
somebody else
Man, I ain't
changed, but I know
I ain't the same
But somewhere here
in between the city
walls of dyin'
dreams
I think her death it
must be killin'
me
[Pre-Chorus]
A A G#7 G#7
Hey hey hey
[Chorus]
B (B7sus4) A E
F#m7 B
With one
headlight
