[C]
[E] I met you [C] in a record store
[E] You had [C] slept in the clothes you wore
[Bm]
But I knew I'd [G] seen you somewhere [C] before
[E] What happened [C] to your guitar?
[E] And what happened [C] to the prettiest star?
[Bm] Can you still play the songs [C] that got you so far?
[Am] [Dbm]
[Ab]
[C] Hey you [Em] with your shadow in the [Bb] gutter
How low [F] have you got to go [C] before you're through?
High [Em] times and poker in the morning
[Bb] All your [F] memories are coming out [Fm] of your shoe
[C] Black [Em] dogs sitting in the park
[Bb] Odd looks [F] from the mothers of the devil's [C] own
[Em] Shoplifting getting your [Bb] essentials
Gay [F] crashing, christenings,
[Fm] funerals
[Am] Weddings too
[Dbm]
[Ab]
[E]
I used to see you all the time [C] on MTV
[E] Read your life story [C] in a magazine
[Bm] I guess you thought that's the way [C] it would always be
[D]
[E] Baby I [C] believe in you
[E] Cause I think [C] that you want me too
[Bm] Though I never really liked [C] your songs it's true
[Am] [Dbm]

[C] you [Em] with your shadow in the [Bb] gutter
