Capo VII
This is really just a more complete version of the other versions that are floating
around UG. Only a few of the versions have lyrics and those that have them are incorrect. It
was bugging me, so here is the complete song, separated properly with corrected lyrics.
The entire song is really just Dm, Fmaj7, C and G. For the sake of being as specific as
possible I will list the chord changes all the way through.
(Dm, Fmaj7, C, G) x 2
Dm Fmaj7
I was packing bags like a bat out of hell,
C G
and you were slipping on your dress
Dm Fmaj7
I was punching holes in a ticket to downtown
C G
mass, where the spirit fled
Dm Fmaj7
Away from my body and away from my blood
C G
like fire that we never lit
Dm Fmaj7
Have you ever seen a man so broken
C G
as that one man that you are looking at
Dm Fmaj7 C G
nooooo oh, oh oh oh
Dm Fmaj7
I could try again if you wanted me to
C G
I swear i'd be a better man
Dm Fmaj7
if roses and daises won't do the trick
C G
I'll create another perfect plan
Dm Fmaj7
I swear to the heavens I'll forget all the past
C G
just say that you need me again
Dm Fmaj7
have you ever seen a man so broken
C G
as that one man that you won't write back
Dm Fmaj7
ohhhhh oh oh oh
C G
I just need you, my river
Dm Fmaj7
ohhhhh oh oh oh
C G
I just need you, my love
Dm Fmaj7
ohhhhh oh oh oh oh oh oh
c G
ohhhhh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Dm Fmaj7
you are looking east with the heaviest heart
C G
that I can ever recall seeing
Dm Fmaj7
time is not the answer you want
C G
but time is what your going to get
Dm Fmaj7
have you ever seen a man burn brighter with love
C G
than the man that you are looking at
Dm Fmaj7 C G
the answer is no, no no. The answer is no
Dm Fmaj7 C G
No no no, it's no
Dm Fmaj7
So love, love
C G
come and save me from the drowning
Dm Fmaj7
love, love
C G
go and save him from the drowning
Dm Fmaj7 C G
love
