[Verse]
C
I'm like a record player
G
I keep going 'round
G
With the needle in my arm
F
Making someone else's sound
C
And lately I've been dreaming
G
Of blue and empty skies
G
But nothing like that
F
Ever crosses red and weary eyes
C
I've been traveling with bottles
G
I'm working close with cans
F
I'm sitting up for hours with my best friends in a van
C
And they say that this ain't living
G
But I don't know what they mean
G
'Cause I don't feel dead
F
And baby you look alive to me
Dm F
It's the only game that I know how to play
[Chorus]
Am F
The time, the time to say goodbye
C G F
Has passed us long ago
Am F
And I would say I've overstayed
C G
My welcome but you know
C
I don't think I'm ever going home
[Interlude]

[Verse]
C
I don't need a doctor
G
'Cause anyone can see
F
That I've had all of these shots
C G
But lord I'm still as sick as I can be
C
I think I need to rest my eyes
G
so baby come with me
F C G
Lay down here beside me keep me warm while I sleep
F
'Cause there's trouble on the way
G
Huh! You best believe
C C/B
There always is don't worry
Am F
Sit and have a drink with me
F
When we go all we've got is
G
these days that we've made
C C/B Am F G F
And I don't want to waste them being wistful or afraid
G F
Without all of you I'd be even lower down
C C/B F
You know what I want to say but I can't get it out
[Chorus]
Am F
The time, the time to say goodbye
