[D] [G] [D]
Here I lie in a long stand, lonely, on the town.
In a world of tears I slowly drown.
[E] Going home, I just can't make [F#] it home.
I wish I [E] could
[G] love, love,
[Em] [D] [Bm] love.
Back in the day, [F#m] when the feeling was pure,
and you knew [Bm] you were on the strike.
Back in the day, [F#m] when the morning cries,
and you don't know [Em] why it's hard to say,
[A] when no one's gonna love [Bm] you, you know.
[G] [F#] [Bm] Back in the day, [F#m] when the feeling's been true,
and [Bm] you know it's back in the day,
[F#m] when the morning cries, and you don't know [Em] why it's hard to say,
[A] when no one's beside [Bm] you, you know.

Night and day, that's burning down inside of me.
With you in bed, won't let me be.
[E]
Now, I just can't take [F#] it all.
[E]
Oh, [G]
love, love, [D]
[Bm] tragedy.
[F#m] When the feeling's gone, and you know [Bm] it's tragedy,
[F#m] when the morning cries, and you don't know [Em] why it's hard to say,
[A] when no one's gonna love [Bm] you, you know.
[G] [F#] [Bm]
[F#m] It's a [Bm] tragedy [F#m] when the morning cries,
[Em]
[A] and with no one beside [Bm] you, you know.

[G] [F#]
[Bm] I'm taking a leak, [F#m] [Bm]
[F#m] [G]
[A] with no one to [Bm]
[G] love me.
[F#] [Bm]
[F#m] When you lose control and you don't know,
[Bm]
[F#m] when you're lying close [Em] and it's hard to bear,
[A] with no one beside [Bm] you, you're going nowhere.
[G] [F#]
[Bm] I'm taking a leak, [F#m] and you're feeling drunk.
[Bm] I'm taking a leak, [F#m] when the morning light's out,
you don't [B] know why [A] I'm doing it,
with no one to love [Bm] you, you're going nowhere.
[G] [N]
