There's a man I used to know
Sometimes he still visits with me
When it's late and the alcohol's glow
G (I believe Jon still stays on the G chord with little variations)
Is nearly gone... And it's time to awaken

And he looks and he laughs at the sight
And he asks what has happend to me
And I blame it all on the lights
G
But he smiles and says I'm mistaken

And there is no use in disguising
What the eye can so clearly see
That I've spent my whole life denying

Give me one second chance, give me one final dance
Give me one magic line, take a minute of my time
Give me one final bow, If the moment allows
While he stares at the scars, saying (to next riff)
