Intro in D
D A7
The water's so deep, I've been sinking for years now
G D A7
There's more to it than tears now, and I'm going down.
D A7
I'm hung up on a rail and you're swimming for shore babe
G D A7
I should have seen it before babe, but I'm gonna drown.
[Chorus]
G D
Oh, ain't it just like heartache,
A7 D D7
Be something that you can't shake, with just any old lover.
G D
Oh, I don't want to be lonely
A7 G D
Do you think that you can hold me until the worst is over?
D A7
Come a rumble and a roar, it kind of sounded like a train, babe.
G D A7
Your picture rattled in the frame, babe, the ground was moving down below me.
D A7
And I reached out for your hand, but you were heading for the door, dear,
G D A7
Left me lying on the floor there, pretended like you didn't know me.
[Chorus]
G D
Oh, ain't it just like heartache,
A7 D D7
Be something that you can't shake, with just any old lover.
G D
Oh, I don't want to be lonely
A7 G D
Do you think that you can hold me until the worst is over?

Smoke so thick, I can't hardly see you,
G D A7
Could it really be you, by my side?
D A7
I'm standing still, they're running around me,
G D A7
Good thing that you found me, you know I might've died.
[Chorus]
