C
And I was alone
F
On the fifth day since you've gone
G C
This broken glass; this early morn
I rub my eyes in the haze
F
I'm not sleeping anyway
G
I watch the sun rise up
C
In the city where I was born
C
I could call you now
F
Wouldn't matter what I'd say
G C
Words just aren't enough
I hear our song; press repeat
F
I smell your perfume on the sheets
G C
You always said, "Boy, you're not so tough"
C
And only now can I say,
F
"No matter how I shake and shape
G C
It's these things that make you a man"
And frozen mind begins to thaw
F
You think, "My God, my God, my God
G C
Where was it I began?"
C
"I wish you were," is what I'd say
F
If you asked me in the light of day
G C
But these nights are like a dream I can't shake
And there's your hair and there's your head
F
And there's your empty dress on the bed
G C
I wish I could scream myself awake
C
But I won't go back to what I was
F
And I know now that you are lost
G C
It's your choices that make you a man
And frozen mind begins to thaw
F
You think, "My God, my God, my God
G C
Where was it I began?"
