[Intro]
G
[Verse 1]
G
On the park bench I slept on,
G Am D
raindrops are falling on, newspapers covering me.
C G
I hear early morning motors.
Cmaj7 Dsus2
And I know the world is waking for the dawn.
C Am
My mind's down a dark alley,
G Em Em7 G6 Em
somewhere where last night you loved me.
C G C Em
In the early morning chill, my arms remember still.
C G D Em G6
But I'm dropping like a stone lonesome to the bone.
[Chorus]
C Am G Em
The sun is roughly rising on the roofs of Stagger town.
C Am D G
Time for sweating poison out, just now coming round.
C Am D Dsus4 Cmaj7
The high time of last midnight, over with and gone.
G D Em G6
Leaving me, lonesome to the bone.
[Verse 2]
G
I walked away the wind blows.
G Am D
And any way the wind goes, be good enough for me.
C G
The streets are loud and crowded.
Cmaj7 Dsus2
But I walk my weary way lost and alone.
C Am
Your hot breath and your laughter.
G Em Em7 G6 Em
Keep flashing through my mind to warm me.
C G C Em
But in the naked light of day, soon makes it fade away.
C G D Em G6
And I'm dropping like a stone lonesome to the bone.
[Chorus]
C Am G Em
The sun is roughly rising on the roofs of Stagger town.
C Am D G
Time for sweating poison out, just now coming round.
C Am D Dsus4 Cmaj7
The high time of last midnight, over with and gone.
G D Em G6
Leaving me, lonesome to the bone.
