::Verse #1::
D G A
So she went to the bar on the corner
D G A
With some friends who were buried alive
D G A
And a man leaned over to tell her
D G A
That her luck had finally arrived
G A
Said he drove a Cadillac
G A
They could sneak out thru the crack
G A G A D G A
And he’d never bring her back here again
::Verse #2::
D G A
Watched her finger twirl a circle in her drink
D G A
If you think too much, then you’ll never decide
D G A
You end up like an ice cube sinking down to the bottom
D G A
So you do what you must to survive
G A
So she walked out by his side
G A
To strange shadows in the night
G A G A
Disappeared in the streetlights
::Chorus::
(A)
...and we're
D G A
gone. and Here I am
D G A
and Here I am
::Verse #3::
D
"So where's it parked," she said
G A
"We've walked so far and I'm getting so tired"
F#min G A
And he looked like a crook who'd just been caught
G A
He said "I don't own no Cadillac
G A
Don't even own a paper sack
G A G A
To carry the confidence that I lack
::Bridge::
(A)
...and my
Bmin F#min A
lies"
Bmin F#min A
Bmin F#min A
Bmin F#min A
::Verse #4::
D F#min G A
D F#min G A
D F#min G A
So she said "You know I just can't believe this"
D F#min G A
He said "Go ahead, just leave, I understand"
D F#min G A
But instead she rested his head on her shoulder
D F#min
But how could he love her with nothing to give her
G A
But empty pockets and a crooked man?
G A
Well she said "You can love me with your hands
G A
You can love me with your eyes
G A G A
You can love me with your voice
::Chorus::
(A)
...and your
D G A
lies"
D G A
And here I am
D G A
And here I am
D G A
And here I am
D G A
And here I am...
::Outro:: (repeat and fade)
D G A
