CAPO 2ND FRET
VERSE 1:
(D) I WAKE UP IN THE MORNING WITH A STAGE OF FRIGHT
ON THE WRONG SIDE OF THE BED ALL NIGHT
(G) CLINGING TO THE BROKEN HEART INSIDE MY HEAD (D)
OPEN MY EYES AND I (A) MOVE MY HAND
TO AROUND HER PILLOW TO THE NIGHT STAND
AND STRAIGHTEN MISS EMILY'S PICTURE BY MY (D) BED
(D) GO TO THE OFFICE AND THE WORKS PILED UP
POUR THREE FINGERS BURBOUN IN MY COFFEE CUP
(G) AND CRY ON MY BEST FRIENDS SHOULDER DOWN THE HALL (D)
I FEEL SO LONELY WHEN I (A) CLOSE THE DOOR
BITE MY NAILS AND I WALK THE FLOOR
AND STRAIGHTEN MISS EMILY'S PICTURE ON MY (D) WALL
CHORUS:
(D) LOOK OUT MY WINDOW AND WHAT DO I SEE
NOTHING BUT PAIN LOOKING (A) BACK AT ME
(D) AND ALL THAT MY FUTURE MEANS TO ME
IS (G) TOSSING YESTERDAYS (A) LOVE OUT INTO THE WIND
AND STRAIGHTEN MISS EMILY'S PICTURE NOW AND (D) THEN
VERSE 2
(D) LEAVE MY OFFICE AND I GO DOWNTOWN
TO A LITTLE BAR WE ALL HANG AROUND
(G) LAUGH AND DRINK BEER, SHOOT POOL AND HAVE A BALL (D)
WHEN THE LAUGHING STOPS AND THE (A) HURTIN TAKE HOLD
REACH IN MY POCKET FOR MY BILLFOLD
AND SHOW MISS EMILY'S PICTURE TO THEM (D)ALL
(D) I STAGGER IN MY HOUSE AND I SLAM THE DOOR
SCATTER MY CLOTHES ALL OVER THE FLOOR
(G) WISHING I COULD DO THE SAME THING IN MY HEAD (D)
DRINK A BEER AND (A) EAT A BITE
AND JUST BEFORE I TURN OUT THE LIGHT
I STRAIGHTEN MISS EMILY'S PICTURE BY MY (D) BED
CHORUS
