INTRO: Em - D - G - C Em - D - G
DG Anything's hard to change DG But hey I got you down on your knees again Em You watch the sky CG It's a pale parade of passing clouds DG That cover the bed upon which we laid in the dark DG And the memories that I made
Em Of a laughing girl C But you're just my toy GD And I can't stop playing with you baby
GC If you think you need to go GC If you wanted to be free GAm There's just one thing you need to know EmDG And that's that you can't count on me
DG I'm coming along real good DG But I still can't do most of the things I should EmCG I watch the sky coming down to bury me... DG And I can't stop this crawling out of my skin DG I know that you see yourself flying in
Em Out of the sky C Coming down GD To carry me but I won't come out
GC So if you think you need to go GC If you wanted to be free GAm There's one thing you need to know EmDGC And that's that you can't count on me.... EmDG No, you can't count on me
SOLO: D - G Am - G - D (D)- G Am - G Em - D - C
DG I watch all of the same parades DG As they pass on the days that you wish you'd stayed
Em But all this pain C Gets me high GD And I get off and you know why
GC So if you think you need to go GC If you wanted to be free GAm There's one thing you need to know EmDG And that's that you can't count on me
GC So if you think you need to go GC If you wanted to be free GAm There's just one thing you need to know EmDGC And that's that you can't count on me.... EmDGC Oh, you can't count on me.... EmDG No, you can't count on me
