[A] [Em]
[C]
[D] [G]
[F] [C]
[G] I saw you [C] at the police [Em] station and it breaks my heart to say
[G] Your eyes had [C] wandered off in [Em] something misty and cold and gray
[Am] I guess you didn't see it coming, someone's gotten used to [G] slumming
I'm dreaming of the golden years, I see you had to change [Am] Korea's far away
But we both know it's [G] somewhere
I saw you [C] on the back page [Em] of some free press yesterday
[G] The driftwood [C] in your eyes said [Em] nothing short of love for pain
[Am] I knew you from another picture, someone with the most [G] conviction
We used to read the funny papers, I'd roll around and pull some [Am] paper
Now today, I send a message to [D] her, a message that I'm coming
I'm coming to [F] pursue her
Damn, oh [C] Korea, rest my face [D] on your
[A] bed
I've [F] got just ten pounds, oh, [C] or I'll chase you down [D] to your
[A] death
[G] Saw you [C] on a TV [Em] station and it made me wanna pray
[G] An empty [C] shell of lovely [Em] lips, but now dusted with decay
[Am] What happened to the funny paper?
Smiling was your [G] moneymaker
Someone ought to situate her
Find a way to educate [Am] her all the way
I'm down to come and [D] find you
But you can't hide from me, girl
You'll never mind what [F] I do
Damn, oh [C] Korea, rest my face [D] on your
[A] bed
I've [F] missed my seat in your [C] dream
I left it all [D] for your
[A] head
[D]
[Am]
[Em]
[Em] [Am]
[C]
[D] [G] [D]
[G] Saw you [C] in the church out [Em] there, was no time to exchange
[G] You were [C] getting married [Em] and it felt so very strange
[Am] I guess I didn't see it coming
Now I guess it's me who's [G] bumming
Dreaming of the golden years
You and I were mixed since [Am] years, not today
Not for me, but [D] someone I never could get used [G] to
Now I will refuse [F] to
Damn, oh [C] Korea, rest my face [D] on your [A] bed
[F] [C] I left it all [D] for your [A] head
Like [F] a mouthpiece, a card, [C] what an hour
Left you down to [D] your [A] death
