[Verse]
A E
Cheap perfume and painted faces
B A E
Fallen angles fill the places
A E
Where I go when my troubles pull me down
E
All the lies I know they'll tell me
E B E
And the time that they will sell me
F#m B
For a while I'll be the biggest man in town
E
Back at home in bed she's crying
E
For her love for me is dying
A E
But she'll pray I make it safely through the night
B
When the mornin' sun starts showing
A
To her bedside I'll be going
E B E
And she'll hold me while I face the morning light
E
And I'll make promises
E
Promises to change
G#m
I'll make her promises swear I'll rearrange
A
And I'll start giving all the love she needs
E B A B E
If only she will stay
E
Once again she'll reasure me and
E
I believe her love will cure me
A E
And I'll fall asleep with tears on my face
E
Lord I know she's just a woman
E
And her love can't last forever
F#m
And someday soon I know she'll
D#m B
Leave without a trace
E
For broken' promises
Will tear her dreams apart
G#m
Just token promises will someday break her heart
A
And for the last time she'll hold me when I cry
E B
And while I'm sleeping
A B C#m B C#m D#m
She'll quietly say goodbye
