I saw a lack of this song anywhere, so I decided it was about time someone posted a
decent rendition of this little croon. Here's my interpretation, enjoy!
VERSE 1:
Em C
angel broke her wing
G C
oh you poor thing
Am Em G D
the hum of the motor gave way to the tick tick
Em C G C
ticking of the clock and the rattle of springs
Am D
the buick's in the drive
Am D7
its good to be alive

CHORUS:
G D Am D
and if you knew now, what you knew then
C G C D
you wouldn't wanna go home, wouldn't wanna go
G D Am D
if you knew now, what you knew then
C G C D G
you wouldn't wanna go to amity gardens again
VERSE 2:
it isn't very much
but for now its home
a room in the shadow of a funny lookin' man
on the phone to the bank about a default loan
I thank you very much
ta ta we'll keep in touch
CHORUS:
BRIDGE:
D
where you, came from
and act like you tried
Am Em
'cause some things are better kept
G
deep down inside
Am Em G
but you're not driving you're along for the ride
Am D
just checking out the scene
Am D7
and taking in the green
CHORUS:
