Em
You're looking for a way out
Bm A Em
I can feel it
Em
Come on show me where it hurts
Bm A Em
Maybe I can heal it
Em
Your feelings are your own
Bm A Em
Now you keep 'em under lock and key
Em
You got me drivin' through the streets
Bm A Em
For an answer to the mystery
G D A
The world's still weak on Charleston Avenue
G D A
Outside that vacant Starlight Motel I see you
G D
Laughing with your girlfriends
A D A Em
Not a care in the world not a burden on your mind
Em
It was a matter of time
Em
There's a panic in this house
Bm A Em
and it's bound to surface
Em
Just walkin' through the front door
Bm A Em
makes me nervous
Em
It's creepin' up the floorboards
Bm A Em
got me wondering where I stand
Em
I cannot put out the fire
Bm A Em
I got a book of matches in my hand
G D A
When we first met headstrong and filled with doubt
G D A
Made just enough hustling tables that summer to take you out
G D A D
I was fallin' back on forever when you told me about your heart
A Em
You laid it on the line
G D
Laughing with your girlfriends
A D A G
Not a care in the world not a burden on your mind
You laid it on the line
G A D A G
It was just a matter It was a matter of time
G A
We found ourselves a place
D G
We belong in it forever
D A
Ain't that what it's all about
G A
Make the promise and keep it
D G
Come hell or high water
D A G
We'd figure it out
G A
It was the night it was the moon
D G
It was the green grass in the garden
G A
The victory and the sin
G A
I know you're weary look at me
D G
Flailin' in the corner
G
Here's the towel
A G
Go on throw it in
G D G
It was a matter of time
G D A
Can't you see that it's tearing me up inside
G A
Look what's laying at our feet
G A
That's the wreckage of broken dreams
D A
And burned out
G A G
And it's here on our street
