[Bb]

[C] Met a [F] man I didn't [Eb] know and asked him
What does that song say?
Met a man I didn't know and asked me
How are you doing?
[C] Should've just [F] said [Eb] fine cause it's all he wanted to hear
[C] But for reasons [Ab] unknown
[Bb] [F] In [Eb] a sorrowful tone
[C] I'd say [F] that it's been a hell [Eb] of a year
[Ab] And I don't really know [F] where [Eb] I'm going
And I [Ab] might just be hanging [Bb]
around
[Eb] If [C]
life [Eb] changed a grain

I've been [F] waiting [Ebm] for a [Bb] break in the clouds
[Eb] I [C]
[Fm] went to go see some [Eb] gypsy
Tell her my future
[Ab] [Eb] [C] But she [Eb] asked for my photograph instead
As [C]
I walked [D] through [Ebm] the cold
[Bb] With my fortune [Ab] [Eb] untold
[C]
Good luck trying [Ab] to reach me when I'm dead
[Eb] [Ab] [Ebm] Cause [C] I don't [Eb] really know [Bb] where I'm going
[Eb] And [C] I might [Ab] just be hanging around

That [E] I've [C] been waiting for [Eb] a break in the clouds
[C]
[Eb] Saw a love I used [Bb] to know
[Eb]
Swallowed me whole
[C]
On a date [Eb] I was out of clean clothes
She [C] sighs me up [Ab] and [Eb] she said
[Bb] Honey, how is your head?
[C] I said you can't call me honey
But [Eb] honey, heaven only [Ab]
knows
[Eb] And [C] I don't really [Eb] know where I'm going
And I might just [Bb] be hanging [Ebm] around
If [C]
life [Eb] changed a grain
Then I guess you could say
[C] That I've been waiting for [Eb] a break in the clouds
I hate to do [C] this twice but is anybody out there been [Eb] waiting for a [Bb] break in the clouds?
