Dm
While you were out…
Am
the message says
Dm
You left a number
Am
and I tried to call
Dm
But they wrote it down
Am Dm
in a perfect Spanish scrawl
Am Dm
in a perfect Spanish scrawl
(guitar riff, starting on 'crawl')
Dm Bb C Am Bb C G
Dm
Yet again
Am
I'm missing you
Dm
King size bed
Am
in a hotel someplace
Dm
I hear your name
Am Dm
I see your face
Am Dm
I see your face
(guitar riff, starting on 'face')
Dm Bb C Am Bb C G (2x)
[Chorus]
F
Back street dolls
and the side door johnnies
C
The wide-eyed boys with their backs full of money
G#
Back in the alley
going bang to the wall
D#
Tied to the tail of a midnight crawl
F
Heaven wouldn't be so high I know
C
if the time gone by hadn't been so low
G#
The best-laid plans come apart at the seams
D#
and shattered all my dreams
Sometimes I feel like…
[Verse]
Dm
Screaming
Am
close my eyes
Dm
It's times like this
Am
my head goes down
Dm
and the only thing I know
Am Dm
is the name of this town
Am Dm
The name of this town
(piano riff, starting on 'town')
Dm Bb C Am Bb C G
Dm
Yet again
Am
I'm missing you
Dm
won't be long
Am
I'm coming home
Dm
Until that distant time
Am Dm
I'll be moving on
Am Dm
I'll be moving on
(guitar riff, starting on 'on')
